ATI SMBus driver

n/a (21-Dec-2008)
After spending hours looking for the ERROR SMBus Driver in Device manager for new install of clean XP ( not the 8 gigabyte trialware HP original) found this driver for wrong device, and wrong motherboard on the HP website. The board was ASUS a8ae ( not listed, proprietary )HP webiste on the A8AE deliberately left out driver, ATI ( that made the ATI SB400 chipset ) delibberately refused all drivers for chipset, etc. etc. This SMBUS driver is for a group of SMBus ATI chipsets, and finds and runs properly. Damed proprietary, unsupported crap from ATI, HP, and ASUS licencing agreements. If you want to get rid of the 8 gigabyte original HP XP installation, they deliberately leave out drivers with no support to force you to load in tons of crap - 14 day trials, ads, pop ups etc... GOOD LUCK

To find the newest driver, you may need to visit the ATI website. Most major device manufacturers update their drivers regularly.
Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.
In Windows 11, Windows 10 & Windows 8.1, right-click the Start menu and select Device Manager
In Windows 8, swipe up from the bottom, or right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose "All Apps" -> swipe or scroll right and choose "Control Panel" (under Windows System section) -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager
In Windows 7, click Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Device Manager
In Windows Vista, click Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Device Manager
In Windows XP, click Start -> Control Panel -> Performance and Maintenance -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager button
Locate the device and model that is having the issue and double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
Select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button and follow the instructions.
In most cases, you will need to reboot your computer in order for the driver update to take effect.
Tech Tip: Driver downloads and updates come in a variety of file formats with different file extensions. For example, you may have downloaded an EXE, INF, ZIP, or SYS file. Each file type has a slighty different installation procedure to follow.
