| Unknown device (WindowsXP MediaCentre)
Hello all, 1st please bare with my ignorance. My PC is a packard bell desktop (model iXtreme Gold s-1919) with XP media centre edition. I've recently changed my video card ATI radeon HD4650 (and installed software without problems) and used the recovery disk that I had with the machine to re-install windows. I think there were few error messages during re-installation of windows. I updated to SP3. After re-installation, there were few unknown devices but I re-installed all the drivers from packard bell site. Now, when I start the computer I get a message of unknown device (which is listed under Other devices in the device manager). The device instant ID comes as [ACPI\AWY0001\2&DABA3FF&0]. Also during the startup of windows, I get an icon in the lower left corner that says something like [one of your devices has errors and might not function properly] then this icon disappear [It doesn't open with anything if I click on it before it disappears]. How can I discover what device is that? Thank you for your time and help. |

| Re: Unknown device (WindowsXP MediaCentre) Take a look here and see if you can diagnose what driver you still need. If you have on board graphic chip did you disable in Bios? http://support.packardbell.com/uk/it...5207801&g=2000 "JinKazama" <JinKazama.3vukbb@DoNotSpam.com> wrote in message news:JinKazama.3vukbb@DoNotSpam.com... > > Hello all, > > 1st please bare with my ignorance. > > My PC is a packard bell desktop (model iXtreme Gold s-1919) with XP > media centre edition. > > I've recently changed my video card ATI radeon HD4650 (and installed > software without problems) and used the recovery disk that I had with > the machine to re-install windows.
