I upgraded to Windows XP Home Edition and lost me SM Bus Controller Driver. I have an Emachine. I have looked everywhere and can't figure it out. This is the first time I have posted so if more information is needed I will gladly post it. Thank you. :)

If you have upgraded for W98/ME that is likely to happen. In these situations it is always better to undertake a clean install.

XP should detect the SM, so check the Device Manger for any uninstalled software.

I did a clean install but it still doesn't detect it. Is it a necessary driver? Is it something really important?

If it is a INTEL Chipset Motherboard you may need to install the drivers here:
