Downgraded to Windows 8 and need help to find some drivers
I used Windows 8 for a few months and was starting to get used to it, until the 8.1 came. Long story short, I have downgraded to Windows 7 Pro and now I miss some drivers that Windows can not find via the troubleshooter.
I have a HP p6-2378 and the drivers that are missing are for:
SM Bus controller-
-Controller universal Serial Bus (USB) (x 2)
I searched on the site of HP, which said that they do not support Win 7 for my motherboard, and the MSI (which manufactured the mobo) website which did not come with anything.
If someone could help me, I would be eternally grateful. Thanks to anyone who responds!

I compared these to my laptop which has fairly specific things written under these articles, so I'm assuming that they are to do with the right drivers? I just threw these here in the case where theres more underlying issues.
Also how one I would go about installing these drivers because the USB ports do not work? The pilots put it on a CD?
I'd appreciate any assistance because without them, my laptop is essentially unusable. Thank you very much.

I got the error code: 0xc0000034 on my windows 8 and need help.
I got home exhausted and started my Windows 8 desktop computer I was greeted with a screen that says The Boot Configuration data file is missing some required information. File: \BCD error Code: 0xc0000034. I don't know anything else and have no idea of what are the parameters of the UEFI firmware, help me?
Hi Gilbert,.
1. What is the brand and model of the computer?
2. do you have the DVD to install Windows 8 with you?
UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) is a standard interface for firmware for PCs, designed to replace the BIOS (basic input/output system). This standard was created by more than 140 technology companies within the consortium UEFI, y. It is designed to improve the boundaries of interoperability and software address of the BIOS.
You can view the following for more information Microsoft article.
What is UEFI?
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/what-UEFI
This error occurs when one of the following conditions is true:
- The Windows boot manager entry (Bootmgr) is not present in the Boot Configuration data (BCD) store.
- The Boot\BCD file on the active partition is damaged or missing.
I suggest you perform the steps mentioned by "P Jessen replied on 10 August 2013" in the material provided.
Error code: 0xc0000034 in Windows 8 - start of the file Configuration data missing required information
Hope this information helps. Response with status so that we can help you.

Some back-story to my question:
A month ago, so I decided to reinstall windows on my laptop which had become slow and unresponsive. I did it using the key USB Installer tool that Microsoft provides and a file ISO of Win7. I used my old product key on the underside of the laptop and it worked fine. After installation, I found I was missing several base drivers. Since then, I found a lot of important drivers (wireless, its drivers, etc), but several of the 'minor' escape me because quite simply, I don't know how to describe the issue that I have without them to Google. For example, my mouse pad is no longer scrolls when I slip 2 fingers down it at the same time, some site images do not load at all and rather simply show a torn file icon (I don't know if it's the associated driver, but it started after reinstall) etc.
I want to avoid these problems when I reinstall Windows on my sluggish office. Is there a good way to know what drivers I need? A list my computer can generate or one list of drivers ' required/normal' and other, I need? Or even a list someone else online of pilots, that everyone should have to use their computers to their full potential? I know that all computers have hardware different and like, but perhaps a general list of things you need to get with a new installation (that is to say, "get your graphics, sound, image,... drivers to a minimum, while that [insert here things] is recommended as well").
Alongside this, is there anything that this is another important thing I should remember to do when you install a new copy of windows?
Thanks, I know it's a bit of reading.
Go to your computer manufacturer's support web site and search for Windows 7 drivers for your specific brand and model number.
If there is no driver, your PC may not work correctly (No. LAN or WiFi, Audio, USB, etc.) after the installation of Windows 7.
If there are Windows 7 drivers, then to download to a folder on your hard drive and install all of them, starting with the card drivers mother/chipset, LAN, Audio, USB, Graphics, SATA, Webcam, Etc., and so on.
