Unknown Device in Device manager.
I recently decided to to a clean install of Windows 7 7127 RC x64. I have been running Windows 7 x86 because even though I have x64 processors, my laptop came with Vista Ultimate x86 installed on it.
After reading about the differences between x86 and x64 systems and the fact that I have 4GB of memory that only came up as 3GB under x86 I thought I would experiment with Windows 7 x64.
My only problem so far is one unknown device under device manger. I originally had three unknown devices but the first two were based on my Nforce PCI system devices which I finally found here:
nforce Vista driver in Others drivers - Windows Vista Downloads
These are the drivers that worked for my AMD based Nforce system :
Nforce Vista drivers downloads - NVIDIA nForce Driver 15.23 WHQL for WinVista64 Vista driver download - Windows Vista Downloads
After installing the drivers I still have that one unknown device listed. I tried to run DriverMax but it only supports Vista x86 not x64. I also tried PC Wizard and a program called "Unknown Devices" that just tells me I have one unknown device...No Duh!!
I tried to identify the device by PCI vendor ID but it doesn't show one. Since the laptop came with everything pre-installed I have no idea what it can be.
These are the only things I can find to identify it.
Hardware Id's : ACPI\ENE0100 *ENE0100
Physical Device Object Name :\Device\0000005d
I searched the Internet and the only thing that came close to it was something called "Smart battery" which I installed, it works but the unknown device is still there.
I would be very happy if someone could please tell/help me to figure out WTH it is and how to install drivers for it.
Besides this one thing Windows & x64 is preforming very well on my laptop so far.
Thanks in Advance,
