hi Ted
thank you for tuttorial but i want to know someting;
allready when i open the device menager i can select "Show Hidden Devices" option and i can see the hidden / ghost drivers and whwn i do step 1-2 nothing changing
So why we are doing step 1 and 2 ?
Why it necessary?
Hi Ted,
I just linked to your excellent tutorial on one that I wrote yesterday, due to the positive feedback on that Unknown Device thread (thanks for the rep too ).
I see that you mentioned the Computer Management Console in your tutorial and I've been trying to get a answer on something without installing an earlier version of windows; perhaps you can help. Do you know if the compmgmt.msc (right click on computer and choose manage) is available on home basic and Home premium. Someone mentioned in another thread that it wasn't and I've kept it out of all posts since; but I've never got around to verifying this. Any ideas?
Thanks and great thread, I didn't know you could show Ghost devices (unfortunately I'm unable to tip the scales on it.... perhaps it's too old?)

Hi Tim
Can confirm that it is available on HP x-64 :)
Not able to check Basic though
Regards
Thanks Lomai! Thanks Brink! and thanks Ted!
I've been meaning to get off my backside and find that out and I thought since Ted put it in his Tutorial that he already had the answer........ as always the team network here is extremely fast, I don't often see Ted beaten to an answer . :)
Now to try to find the thread again that I read where it said it wasn't available......hmmm.
I finally found that post.... and guess what? I must have had another late one on sevenforums that night.
I owe everyone an apology for wasted time . It turns out that the poster never said that the compmgmt.msc was missing, just that the functionality changes. I've just remembered it wrong and now feel like silly idiot.... the beginnings of old age... dementia... memory in need of de-fragmentation?.... or too many tasty beverages while I'm helping out... I don't know.
Apologies all, it's been a day of red faces for me.
