    - Download the latest Vista driver installer pack (e.g. "15.24_nforce_winvista32_international_whql.exe" )from nvidia.
    - Extract the \SMU folder from the installer pack with WinRAR.
    - Open the "Device Driver Manager", right click the "Coprocessor"(exclamation marked) and click "Update Driver" and update from the extracted \SMU folder. Done...

    I had the same problem on my Acer laptop, W7 reporting missing driver for ''coprocessor''. I tried method described by ''quo888'' but it didn't work for me, W7 just didn't want to install the driver. So I went on Acer support site and downloaded Windows Vista SP1 Nvidia Chipset drivers for my laptop. I ran the installer, chose to install SMU and SMBus drivers and voila! No need for compatibility mode or anything.

    I hope this is helpful for someone with the same problems.
