SM Bus Controller driver

Just got a new Dell Vostro 220 and I meediately installed Vista Business 64-bit. All is well, except that the Device Manager reports no driver for the SM Bus Controller. Dell does not support 64-bit, so I wondering if anyone here can direct me to a site to find those drivers. Thanks.

OK, I think i found it. It looks like it is the G45 chipset. Does that sound correct?
