Unknown Device - but it's identified?
This is really strange.
I've constantly had problems with audio quality, pops, clicks etc. so today, having some time, I thought I'd try and fix the problem.
First port of call was to check the drivers, that's when I noticed this strange information in Device Manager. For some strange reason, Windows 7 has lost information about my SATAII HD and my SATA DVD. It now sees them as unknown, but still correctly identifies them.
It sees them as ATA disks and not SATA, so I'm missing the advanced properties. I know for a fact they were identified correctly before, because I checked to see if the write ahead caching option was enabled.
After seeing this I installed the latest Intel chipset drivers, but it made no difference.
I'm not really sure what to do with this or how to troubleshoot. If you have any ideas I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks
