I have recently installed Windows 7 and everything is working fine except one of my devices. My LG External Super Multi-DVD Rewriter is being recognized by my machine as an unknown device. I get Error Code 43 and when I try updating the driver, nothing changes. Please help! Thanks.
Hi and welcome BC
You wouldn't by any chance be running a mac, would you? that error code is almost exclusively from there. Anyway. IN device manager go to hte unknown device. right click>properties>details>use pull down>find hardware IDs. copy that string into google and the string should point to the MFR.
Good luck and let us know if you need help with that

I am running a dell inspiron 6000, not a mac. The hardware ids string reads "usb/unknown."
You could give a try
Unknown Device Identifier - Freeware Download
The "Unknown Device Identifier" worked, but I can't seem to locate the driver online. Any other ideas?
Hi
Sorry usually hardware strings are more enumerated. I went looking for a driver for it but the best I ould come up with is the us support site. here>>>>LG Product Support The error 43 simply means windows stoppedthe device because it reported a problem
Sorry I couldnt help
