Driver missing for PCI Simple Communications Controller

Hi, when you click on to my PC Device Manager, it shows a yellow exclamation mark under the heading modems and next to the controller PCI of communication Simple. It is said that the devices for this driver are not installed, does anyone know where I can find a driver for this? The ID details show the following:

PCI\VEN_14F1 & DEV_2702 & SUBSYS_8D891043 & REV_01\4 & 1C660DD6 & 0 & 10F0

I'm looking to change my operating system from Windows XP to Windows 7, I feel that I should have all my drivers in place before installing Win 7. I have a Dell Dimension 8300 PC.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated

There is no upgrade XP to Win 7. You will have to wipe the hard drive and do a clean install. If all the drivers that are installed will now be lost. All your personal files are lost too if you must go back and placed on external media first and be sure to have your software product key and software installation media (for example, MS Office), because you will have to reinstall everything

Dell does not support Win 7 on the Dimension 8300. If you run the free Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to see if your system is capable of managing in Win 7 and what drivers and software can be a problem. You can watch the video here to get advice from Microsoft by moving from XP to Windows 7.

And to answer your specific questions, this driver can be installed when you install the chipset after loading Windows 7, or it could be the modem driver Conexant (dial-up). So if you use an Ethernet port to connect to the internet, it can even no need to install drivers for the modem.
