No driver for unknown device  

When I go to start>devices&printers I get the following:



which shows that my PC requires troubleshooting. When I do trouble shooting I get the following:



But it doesn't tell me what the "Unknown" device is. So I go to Device Manager and I get this:



Still doesn't tell me what the unknown device is. All I have is a MS mouse and an external HD both of which I have had for 4 years.

How do I find out what the Unknown Device is so I can look for the driver the machine requests?
Thanks in advance to one and all.

In Device Manager right click the unknown device-properties-Details
Select Hardware Ids, right click and copy, and google what comes up.

I went through all the hoops and still could not find out what the darn thing is. So I took a chance and disabled it and so far so good. If something suddenly stops working it should give me a clue and I shall post further. Thanks for your reply.

Thanks Boozad. Here's a joke for you:



Doesn't make life any easier, does it?

No it doesn't if you don't follow instructions

Go to my post #2 and paste here.

Take a look at Parent and Siblings to see if anything there helps.
