Hola reciente mente Instale Windows 8 Pro en una computadora nueva en base a Tarjeta Madre Gigabyte socket 1151 para procesadores Skylake. Al finalizar me quedaron controladores sin instalar. Entre otros - Controladora de BUS Sm y - Controladora simple de comunicaciones PCI.

Instalé los drivers de Intel para el primero y para el segundo fue necesario Instalar este software: Intel Management Engine (ME) software.

 

aquí me surge la duda ya que en Internet he leído que este software implementa una función del procesador que puede ser riesgoso para la seguridad del Equipo.

This makes ME a huge security loophole, and it has been called a very powerful rootkit mechanism. Once a system is compromised by a rootkit, attackers can gain administration access and undetectably attack the computer.

por este no se si deba desinstalar este software aunque no funcione la controladora simple de comunicaciones PCI

Hi DECOM_2016,

 

 

Intel Management Engine driver improves the compatibility of hardware (peripherals devices) with OS. It is very important to install the correct drivers for your motherboard.

 

 

Intel has generic drivers; however, in your case it is better to install the drivers provided by Gigabyte support website; they were customized and tested on your system.
