Hello everyone, I just installed all the drivers for my new PC. Everything seems normal except for one PCI device (and the SM Bus Controller). Device Manager shows no available drivers for those components. I suspect the issue might be related to the fact that I can't access the second SSD (Samsung 980 PRO 2TB connected to the M.2_2 slot) in Windows. Even though it appears in Device Manager, I can't find it in the file manager or storage settings. It shows up in BIOS Advanced > NVMe Configuration but I can't select it as a boot option. I've looked up similar problems and found that ASUS Z690 boards with the M.2_2 slot often encounter this issue. I searched for hardware IDs online but couldn't locate drivers for those devices. I tried disabling Armory Crate in BIOS and used some older Intel chipset drivers, but nothing worked. If you have any advice, I might need to replace my motherboard.

I checked what you've done, and I'm not sure how it turned out.
