I saw in my 'device manager' that 'PCI simple communications controller' and 'USB IMAGING DEVICE' had yellow signs next to them, and when I checked it out, it said the drivers weren't installed. I tried to install them by the 'internet search' choice, and also 'searching' the hard drive, neither worked(It said the drivers couldn't be found.) Also, when I plug into the front USB port, a message comes up that says it isn't running at top speed, I should turn the port(s) into hi-speed ports. This is recent, previously, the device manager didn't show any issues, and the front ports were 3.0, hi-speed. What is the issue here, and where can I find the drivers to correct the problem, or is that the problem at all? Thanks!

'PCI simple communications controller' is a modem.
'USB IMAGING DEVICE' could be a camera or a scanner, possibly with a 3in1 printer.
If you enter it's properties you can find Hardware IDs, copy end Google it and that should give an idea about exact HW.

I would start at the mobo manufacturer page, they might have those driver packages separately, or they may bundle them all together in a "chipset drivers" package.

But to back up a bit, what kinds of changes have you made to your setup that may have prompted the issues? Adding hardware, uninstalling software utilities, reinstalling or removing related drivers, updating BIOS, etc?
