I've noticed this before in the device manager, but never really worried about it. Now it's just gnawing at me. Anyway idea what this is? And where to find a driver? Oh, I'm using an Acer Aspire M1640.
Hi and welcome
Co processor is a term to indicate a math co processor. A thow back to older terminology. Is it "unknown" (has a yellow triangle on it)? If you want to check its status you can right click the device and go to properties. If installed coreectly it will say working properly.

Yeah it has a yellow triangle on it, I knew there was no driver installed for it for a while, well when I first installed 7. First place I went to the device manager.
Anyway, it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
" And when I update the driver says driver not found or whatever.
Hav you tried the Intel chipset drivers?
Intel® 5500/5520/3400 Chipset Driver for Windows*
Here you go.
Code:PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_07DA&SUBSYS_01371025&REV_A2 PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_07DA&SUBSYS_01371025 PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_07DA&CC_0B4000 PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_07DA&CC_0B40
It appears that you may have an nForce chipset...the vendor is NVIDIA but I can't find the string of that device listed for them (unless no one has reported it...)
The closet...a 07DC ended up being a nForce 7 chipset...so lets give it a try and install a nForce chipset driver
x64: NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.51 WHQL
x86: NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.51 WHQL
Yeah the SMU driver did it. Oh and btw, do you have any tips for finding drivers for my computer for xp. GPU is no problem but the rest, not so much.
Did the driver I provided work? Thats fantastic!
As for your XP drivers...it will be a challenge...we have the GPU, chipset, and possibly the Audio drivers covered...but nothing else
If you look at Acer's website...they give you nothing for XP Acer Support - Drivers & Download
