Should I be concerned about these?

Intel(R) Shared SRAM - 43EF
Intel(R) SMBus - 43A3
Intel(R) SPI 9flash) Controller - 43A4

All are installed with Device status: No drivers are installed for this device.
All have mfg. INTEL ??? with driver dates 7/18/1968 ??? Ver: 10.1.34.XX

I Cannot find updates so best idea is to shut off WU, wipe all Intel and reinstall until I figure where they came from.

FYI, come to find out this behavior is normal (some devices don't need drivers) and the date is symbolic (Intel's foundation day).

Are you referring to Win 10/11 drivers that just show up as optional drivers?

If so, we have been complaining about those since no info it given to make a valid judgement as to whether you actually need them.
