Windows 11 win 11 SM bus controller and PCI device say no driver

[Peterr]

At device and printers in control panel it reports the win 11 SM bus controller and PCI device say no driver. I went to device manager but it could not update driver. I did not install the Asus utility which has drivers with bad things like Norton when installing Win 11.
