Gigabyte p41-es3g MB pci simple communications controller drivers missing

My win7 64bit sp1 os gives me the following problem: In the Device controller i have a yellow mark on my PCI input device. It says my PCI device has driver problems. More accurately: ,,pci input device Device type: other devices Manufacturer: unknown Location: pci-bus: 2, devices: 2, task: 1 The device's drivers not installled. (Code: 28)" Well, my drivers -as far as i know- are up to date (exept my sound card, coz the sound card's manufacturer dont have win7 64 bit compatible driver). Bios also got updated. I have a video card, a sound card, and a lan card (their drivers up to date, exept sound card, as i mentioned) installed into my PCI slots, but it looks like they are working correctly (exept the sound card: i have laggs in sound when i playing higher qualitied sounds). My computer has various simphtoms: - applications randomly crashing (MSN, League of legends, Mozilla browser, flash player crashing, even windows related applications like search indexing, etc). - when applications crashing, sometimes i got bluescreen, but my computer are able to restart itself Sorry, if im hard to understand, but my englis is need much more practice, and im also not an expert in the PC-stuff. Thy, if u decide to help me out.

Do you have a modem that is no longer in use?

Some LAN cards have more than one device. It may be a bridge or something. I think that is noted on your question. Look for the manufactures driver.

"Don't fix it, if it ain't broken." If you can live with a non-impact warning.

    Thy for answer Jose Diaz! I dont have a modem, what is no longer in use. But, when the troubles with my pc stared, i may had an error with the motherboard's integrated LAN-port. Sometimes, afther the windows 7 booted in, i got a message what is said that my integrated LAN port has no driver installed/detected, and even my router cant see my PC, and the orange led of the motherboards lan-por has no light. I can solve this problem in the past, by fully turn of my pc (temoraly removin its connection to electricity), then restarting it. But, afther the problems got more serious (when i installed my sound card), i made a full win7 reinstall, and afther that, i turned off the motherboards LAN-port from bios, and then i installed a LAN-card. But interesting, even afther i disabled the motherboards lan-port, its orange led still up. And afther the full win7 reinstall, i started to get error messages about my 2. slot of PCI scc, what is says, there are no driver for it. I will try your suggestion, to update the chipset drivers from intel site, maybe it will solve the problem of the bridge, or the PCI or whatever chipset stuff:D I mostly fear, that there is a chance that my PCI slot, or motherboards LAn-port, or in worst scenario, the bridge is damged (physically or softwerly) due to a past electricity break:S In that chase, i should buy a new motherboard:S Or?

    Try loading the drivers instead. Choose you OS. Download and install integrated.http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product... Same scenario for PCI card if this fails.

    ,,Same scenario for PCI card if this fails." What is the difference between integrated motherboard PCI-slot, and pci card? This chipset driver is for to fix the South bridge, what is in connection with the pci slots? What will it exatly done to my pc, if i install it? It will replace the whole currently installed chipset driver? Another sympthom: i almost always got error with the windows search thing. That little white flag suggest a solution, to rebuild indexing, but every time i start my pc, and get a crash with windows media player 12, or any other windows-related application, the error message shows up again, and i have to rebuild my indexing again...3x times today...i even have freezes with the little white flag, when i want to click on it. If i think about it, almost everithing on my pc have random freezes, applications randomly closeing by themselves, or crashin too:S (My pc is clean of viruses, etc...). Sometimes ending with a bluescreen stuff... One more simpthom: my 5.1 sound system are doing a low buzzing sound in random times and circumstances...tomorrow i will take a look inside the pc-house, to check, if the sound card are installed into that number 2 pci slot, what is marked whit the yellow ! for its missing driver... And well, at the weekend, i will try to install the chipset driver what u linked, and i hope for a salvation...or for a lot of beer, if it not helps...xD Again, thx for your help and patience. If it comes to a complicated pc problem, im turning into an ,,IT barbarian" quiet fast, so, thy again:D

    Integrated chip is just that, a tiny chip on your main board. The link I posted is directly from your MB manufacture. The PCI slot holds a daughter board. You need to locate maker and model drivers for that card. Use one or the other for now. However, I am starting to think you may have a deeper issue if all those problems persist. Hold off on the beer and see if you and maybe a friend (with pc exp) can do a clean install. Make sure to backup files before wiping.

  • Anonymous Nov 24, 2012

    ,,daughter board." = soundcard, lan-card, video card, etc? If answer is yes, i think all of my ,,daguhter boards" have a fresh drivers, except one: the sound card. Coz the manufacturer do not made a driver, what is fully win7 64 bit compatible. Only 32 bit compatible, but there are no yellow mark on the sound card. And the problems begun when i had win7 32 bit as my os, and used the motherboard's integrated sound for my 5.1 sound system (i bought the sound card afhter the reinstall and replacement of my win7 32 bit with the win7 64 bit). Well, i already made backup files form what i want to keep (musics, family pictures, drivers, etc.). Clean install mean that if i have a hdd with 3 particions (c, d, e), i have to remove particions, and format the whole hdd, before i install os (to have the boot sector on c:\)? Deeper issue? I feared, but felt that:S I think i need some stronger drink for now:D At sunday, i will install the chipset driver, and see what happens. If nothing changes, i will make a clean install, but not with win7 64. I will install win7 32 again, to have my sound card driver compatibility with os. Maybe that helps.

    64 and 32 software (including drivers) are not always compatible. As for the partitions, leave intact and only work with C. The others are just space.

simple communications controller is likely a modem, sound card, or network card. If your sound was not working, you would know, and similarly with your network. So try sound card drivers next.

Pci simple communications controller could not find a driver so there's no internet, board is an Asus p5smxse with 2 chipsets, one on the north and the other on the south. sis 968 and sis 671fx

Enter your bios and make sure you're lan is [Enabled].
Open the link provided below;
http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=fLSzpcTDJYT0rgS6&content=download
Choose you're operating system from the drop down menu.
There is one LAN driver, Sis Driver V2.0.1039.1070 for Windows 2000/XP/2003/XP 64bit/2003 64bit. Create a folder on your desktop and name it LAN. Download the LAN driver into the LAN folder. Uncompress the zip file, keep the uncompressed file within the LAN folder. Open windows device manager. Find the pci simple communications controller. Right click on it once. From the pop-up menu left click, update driver. Follow windows instructions. Find the Lan folder on you're desktop and open it. Left click once on the newely created Lan folder so it is high lighted. Click OK. Windows will find the correct software and install it for you. When finished restart you're system. Check windows update for hardware and software updates after windows restarts.
More often than not (pci simple communications controller) points to an audio driver missing but LAN controllers are included.

Cheers!

Motherboard Simple PCI Communications Driver Code 28 for modem

Hello, Mike.

In case you still need this:

To find and install the driver for the simple communications controller:

Go to Device Manager and click on the pci simple communications controller

Go to Properties and then Details. You will see a code like PCI/VEN_8086&DEV_27D8&SUBSYS...
The VEN code means vendor and the DEV code means device: in the example the vendor is 8086 and the device is 27D8.

Once you have the two codes, go to www.pcidatabse.com. Enter the two codes and you should get the name of your hardware.

From there, you can search for a driver download for your hardware.

Hope this helps.

PCI Simple Communications Controller

Hi, I have a solution. If you go in device manager, click on the pci simple communications controller, go in property and then go in details. You will see a code like per example PCI/VEN_8086&DEV_27D8&SUBSYS...

The VEN code means vendor and the DEV code means device: in my case the vendor is 8086 and the device is 27D8.

Once you have the two codes, go to www.pcidatabase.com. Enter the two codes and you should get the name of your
hardware. From there you can search for a driver download for your hardware.

In my case the pci simple communications controller was a Microsoft UAA Bus HD audio. I also had another pci
device that didn't work properly, using the same method I found out that my pci device was an HSF PCI internal modem with code number CX11252-11. I had a hard time downloading one of the drivers, after 6 or 7 times the download started so be patient if you have the same hardware
.
NOTE: to access the device manager, go in control panel, then performance and maintenance, system, hardware and finally device manager.

Hopefully this helps you, good luck.
