[SOLVED] Missing devices

NBILL · 06-06-2009, 09:11 AM

I have a Emachines T6520 running WXP that I just put a new hard drive in due to old one crashing unrecoverable. Got everything loaded but Device Manager says I am missing the "Multimedia Audio Controller" and "SM Bus Controller". I tried finding the drivers on the restore cd but no luck. Tried Emachines website, same luck.
Any Ideas?

Hi,
According to the Specs you have an ATI Chipset.
Here is a link to your drivers:
http://emachines.com/support/product...ktops&subcat=T Series&model=T6520

Select:
Product Type: Desktop
Series: T Series
Model: T6520

You need to install the Video: Description ATI Radeon Video and South Bridge Driver
(3rd on the list)
This must be installed first and then the Audio Driver

The Audio Driver (Updated) is the 7th on the list.

Hope this helps.
Bill
