momosmokey Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 I keep on getting a install wizard popup every time I reboot the computer. The wizards requests drivers for a Simple PCI Communication Controller, I don't know what it wants. I even disabled the hardware, no change to my system performance, yet it still wants this driver. I've tried using my MOBO CD to see if I just forgot to install something, it couldn't find anything on the disc to do with this mysterious hardware. Any ideas?

Bosco Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Do you have a dial up modem installed in the computer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
momosmokey Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) Do you have a dial up modem installed in the computer? No, I'm using the gigabit LAN on my motherboard supplied my Realtek. I remember reading that a PCI dial up modem was one of the reasons for this driver to pop up, but I don't have anything installed besides what's indicated in my signature.

momosmokey Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Check the bios for anything? Such as any additional peripherals? I'll check, but I believe it only said listed the IDE HDD I'm running and my Asus SATA DVD drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Or a dial up modem that could be connected internally or something...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Identify the hardware with this solution, then download the drivers manually: http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en/whssoftware/thread/9adcf4df-0dfd-47f0-a955-2dd1cb56e151 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I followed what you said and got this: LINK. I then proceeded to follow your advice, I went to MSI and typed in my motherboard (H55-GD65) and it came up the the Intel Management Engine Interface Driver (LINK). Perfect, I thought...wrong, supports Windows Vista and Windows 7 only. I'm currently using Windows XP 32, I'm planning on updating relatively soon, but...really MSI? Guess I'm out of luck, I don't suppose I should try those drivers until I have Windows 7? Thanks anyways, it will be solved when I get Windows 7.

hardnrg Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Maybe try the one from Intel? http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&dwnldid=18532 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
