How do i install drivers for these Devices in Device Manager?

I recently did a fresh clean install of windows 10 64 bit on my ASUS X550LC Laptop.

SPECS:
Processor - 4th Gen i5 4200U
Graphic Card - Nvidia GT720M
RAM : 4GB DDR3
OS : Windows 10 64 Bit

I am having a smooth experience with the OS but im just curious how should i install drivers for the following devices with yellow ' ? ' in device manager .

PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller
Intel(R) Atom/Celeron(R)/Pentium(R) Processor Intel DPTF Thermal Framework Device -3400

I have attached the screenshot below for reference.

Please help me out guys.
Thanks!

Latest Intel DPTF driver for Windows 10: Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Version 8.1.10600.150 WHQL

Download, unpack, install and reboot.

As for the other driver, I'm thinking it's Intel's MEI driver but since I don't exactly have Windows 10 on any computers ATM I'm not certain.

Can you take a screenshot of the Device Manager with just the "System Devices" expanded and upload it onto to the thread.

To identify (almost) any device in device manger do this:

Right click device and open properties.

In the details tab, change the drop-down-menu to "device instance path"

Near the beginning of the displayed paths, look for "VEN_xxxx" and shortly after "DEV_xxxx"

You'll want to two bytes after VEN and DEV to get the full device ID

Then google the id.

(my smbus controller)
a query like: "8086 9C22 Windows 10 driver"


You should get the results you seek.

why are we installing a known-buggy Intel DPTF wad, for a device that is "Atom/Celeron/Pentium" [baytrail, right?] on a system that has a Haswell i5???
I've been trying and failing to get clarity on this because it affects negatively one of my laptops - Lenovo

This is a bit of an old thread, next time post a new topic, or if you want my help in particular you can send me a private message.

It seems there are some issues with DPTF on Lenovo. The Lenovo Yoga in particular.


Could you provide me with the model number of your laptop? There is a possible fix for this by slightly modifying the driver package, but I'd need to know your laptop model to do so. Also, I assume you're using Windows 10 64, right?
