No compatibility data on 3 devices

Hi all,

I just ran the Win Upgrade Advisor, and there was no hardware or software
problem, but there were 3 devices for which it says there was "no
compatibility data". They are:
- Intel System Management BIOS Driver
- SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC
- Silicon Image SiI 3114 SoftRaid 5 Controller.

I tried updating the drivers of all my devices from the device manager, but
in most cases there wasn't any upgrade available. I updated my BIOS running
Intel's "Express BIOS Update" tool for my board (D975XBX). There still isn't
"any compatibility data".

Has anyone encountered this situation? The rig is recent (Oct 2006), so I'm
not sure what I should do. I've always planned on upgrading to Vista sooner
rather than later...

Thanks,

JD
 
That result means exactly what it says - no data is available because the
manufacturer has provided none. If this is a laptop check with the
manufacturer for driver information, if it's a desktop or motherboard
product check with the desktop/motherboard manufacturer.
