Base System Device

So my Norton security diagnostic led me to an issue located in my device manager under other  devices. There appear to be about 60 items that are missing drivers. Most of the 60 say "Base System Device"  one says "PCI Device" a few say "Performance Counters" one says "SM Bus Controller" and one says "System Interrupt Controller."

 

After doing some googling first I noticed most who had this issue had only like 2 or 3 items listed. It makes me wonder how my computer even works, let alone so well, with 60 items listed without drivers. I found a website the recommended looking up the hardware id for each item listed and look up the vendor id and the device id on a website provided. I did that, and the vendor for at least all the ones I checked appears to be Intel. However the device id, at least for the ones I checked, appears to be unknown.

 

My vendor id all appear to be 8086 (without going through every one yet) and here are a few sample device ids: 2FB9, 2FF8, 2FA0, 8D7C, 2F37.  And it goes on and on.... 60 of them.

 

I tried installing intel's automatic driver update utility and auto detect doesn't appear to find anything.

 

Does anyone have and advice?  My computer has been working perfectly fine. It is a new PC build. ASRock x99 Extreme 4 motherboard, and an intel Core I7 5820k cpu.

 

Thanks for any help.
