SM Bus software driver issues for NF4 Ultra-D

Super Nade · 04-28-05, 01:55 PM

Guys,

Is anyone having a problem with the NVidia SM Bus driver? Is it even necessary. All my IRQ_LESS_THAN_NOT_EQUAL_TO errors (BSOD errors) have a line telling me that the SM_BUS driver could have problems.

Can I do without the system managed bus driver? I'm getting tired of the junk NVidia software. First it was the IDE Driver, now this.

I'm using the NF4 Ultra D.

have your tried uninstalling all your nforce drivers and installing the nf4 standalone if u hadnt already?

I'll give that a shot, mate. Yesteray, I didn't get one single BSOD while gaming for over 3 hrs and Prime Blend was stable > 2 hrs (testing Prime more throughly again today). This is strange indeed!

you dont need SMBUS drivers installed, to my knowledge, for operation.

Cool!

I'll uninstall them and see what happens.
