What driver am I missing?
Everything is working OK, at least i've found to try, and my internet
search hasn't told me anything..
In devmgmt.msc , under Other devieces, there's one Unknown device
This is what it says under Properties, but they're greek to me..
PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_780B&SUBSYS_84C71043&REV_13
PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_780B&SUBSYS_84C71043
PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_780B&CC_0C0500

780b FCH SMBus Controller
You'll need the chipset driver for your motherboard. The SMBUS is
part of the Southbridge. The SMBUS reads the config serial PROM
on each DIMM module. It is a relatively low speed I2C bus.

I think the "1043" stands for Asus, but I don't have an
official table to decode the SUBSYS with. In theory, the 84C7 could
be used to figure out what motherboard it is, but I have no web
site to do that with.
If your Asus motherboard is an OEM design, simply look for
a retail equivalent motherboard with the same chipset, go to the
site download section, and you can probably find a chipset
package for it there.

Then, off we go to support.asus.com ...

There is a 400MB (yikes!) chipset driver package.
The Asus site also names the motherboard as F1A75-M(CM1740).
So I can also look in there. I don't think this is materially
different. The chipset package is only 200MB in this case,
but that means some OS was severed from the package, making the
package smaller.

400MB is a pretty big download, for a driver that might only
be about 10KB or so.
I can try the Asrock site, find another motherboard with A75
FCH and see if there is a chipset driver there. The driver
package here is only 50MB.

"52.35MB AMD all in 1 driver ver:8.86RC2"
Inside the Allin1_Win7-64_Win7_Vista64_Vista(8.86RC2).zip file,
I can find...
SMBUSamd.inf
and the line in there:
%AMD.DeviceDesc0% = AMDSMBus64, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_780B
The problem I had with something like that the other day,
is my Windows 7 laptop refused to install from the INF file
directly. And I ended up having to use the installer code
to do the installation. On a 32 bit OS, it might have worked
to just right-click the unpacked SMBUSamd.inf and it would
have installed.

The package description calls it a "null driver", so it
really doesn't do anything except make Device Manager
look "pretty".
