Okie,

I had to format my HDD, and everything was installed properly except the graphics card and monitor. That's my guess because of these problems:

1. When I scroll up/down websites with images/photo - it's seems to like flciker - NOt exactly but kind of it's not SMOOTH scrolling.
2. I clicked on CPanel to updated my monitor drivers - I does not let me. the button is unselected so I can't click and nothing happens.
3. When I play files in WINDOWS media player - it works fine on 100% but the moment I goto 200% it slows down and I need to keep the mouse in the play screen. If I move it out from the video display area, the MOVIE will snail.

And yes if this helps - Everythime I computers boots - it tells me that the SM Bus Controller is not installed. I don't know which CD would have the right software but I tried to auto-install. didn't happen.

I have a Pentium 4 1.7 GHZ intel motherboard. 810 AP or something like that ...

Let me know what's missing Thanks for you help.
 
Thanks now I am atleast on a path. Considering I have no clue where my Motherboard Chipset Driver CD would be.. Can you tell me how do I identify my motherboard type from the PC. Some model number etc.

Then maybe I can look up on google for Driver Downloads and install them.

And when you say re-install? How do I go about removing the old ones? Or can I just OVERWRITE them?

Thanks for the help and support.
 
Hey thanks vegas - this worked real fine. I had messed up the chipset family that's why it was going wrong. but the chipset identification utility from Intel's website helped me.

Thanks for your time.
