Having some problems with a printer not working, and after checking out device manager it says found new hardware "SM bus controller". Problem is this person no longer has the MOBO cd. And All I can find at most websites is drivers for AGP, LAN, Modem, Sound, and USB 2.0.
Motherboard: ecs k7s5a pro
drivers: SM bus controller
Thanks for any help you can offer.

You need the sis ide driver. Get it from sis direct
Click on I agree, choose your OS and you want the 735 chipset.

That was a typo which I edited when a reread it ... you want the 735... (I have a dead board with a 651 chipset which I was working on and hence my fingers typing what my brain was really thinking about...)
All this was over then phone so I went ahead and went up there. Pop in the flash drive update the drivers(works now even if it wasn't a problem before) and the printer doesn't work. I couldn't understand how this could be the problem, but I was thinking it was as good as any place to start. Keep in mind this is after my friends been torchered by the tech support for 2 and a half hours. I bring up the printers, and run a test page from the non-default print, and it's prints. I guess I gave tech support to much credit and assume this was already tried when I was over the phone.
Thanks for fast help
errr no problem... just trying to remove the image of 2.5 hours of tech support burning your user with torches :D :D
I don't think I am even going to ask what the original problem report was....
