PCI Serial Port & PCI Simple Communications Controller

#1 Post by Hazarrd » Sat Oct 24, 2009 3:41 pm

I'm running Windows 7 Professional on an X200. The two items in the subject line are coming up in Device Manager as not having drivers installed for them. I thought I had installed all of the drivers from Lenovo's download. What am I missing?

Thanks!

PCI Simple Communications Controller is usually a modem. Is there a modem in your X200?
Collection = T500 - R400 - X300 - X200 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - T61 (14.1" SXGA+) - T60 (15" SXGA+) - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P - 600E

No. I ordered the downgraded version of the built-in media reader specifically because I did not want the modem. The port is covered.

Okay. I installed the AMT drivers and that fixed the problem with the PCI Simple Communications Controller.

No luck with the PCI Serial Port...

Install System Update 4.0 and let it do the work for you.
