MSI Z87-G41 PCMATE Mainboard missing SM Bus driver

[Swayne]

I have a MSI Z87-G41 PCMATE mainboard in a system I purchased over a year ago. In my device manager it indicates that my SM bus controller driver is not installed. I never noticed this before but it may have never been installed. I am running Windows 7, 64 bit. I downloaded the latest chipset driver but am unsure how to extract the SM bus driver for installation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Install the intel management engine drivers to get those.

The SM Bus driver should be included in the chipset drivers.

The SM Bus driver should be included in the chipset drivers.

Are there any potential problems with installing the newer chipset drivers over the existing drivers since the OS is installed and running? I am hoping this is the best solution.

Thanks for the responses I have received.
