HELP!! Cant find PCIxx12 Cardbus Controller

[JordanGraegin]

I have done a unknown device identifier and it keeps saying "@system32\DRIVERS\pci.sys,#1543;PCI to CARDBUS Bridge [UNKNOWN].

I have looked everywhere I can to find this driver. Its for a Sony VGN-NR260E. I have tried the Texas instruments website and they don't list it. With out this driver none of my USB ports will function properly.

If anyone can please help me I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi JordanGraegin, Welcome to the forums, this link Sony eSupport - VGN-NR260E - Software Updates & Drivers will take you to the drivers you require ,They are for Vista install them in compatibility mode http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/316-compatibility-mode.html

The driver for the Cardbus controller is not there. I have tried that site already, thanks though.

Have you updated you MB drivers?
You can always go to device manager>click on the device>properties>detai;s tab>drop down menu> select hardware ID>Copy and Paste the hardware ID string and we can look for a driver that way. Please incluse 32 or 64 bit
Thanks Fabe

Yes it is Sony eSupport - VGN-NR260E - Software Updates & Drivers

I downloaded the driver from that link and tried to install it. It says it can only be installed in Vista, so i tried changing it in compatibility mode and it wont let me change it.

Also when I open device manager it doesnt show any missing drivers but when ever i plug in any USB device it says it cant identify it. Here is the device IDs that i got USB\VID_05AC&PID_1297&REV_0001 & USB\VID_05AC&PID_1297

I have the driver and have been using it for over 1 year. Just download it from my post. This is a rare driver and took me about 1 month to find it. Works with a HP dv 5215us laptop. This is a 7 driver. Just install it directly from device manager.

 

[JordanGraegin]

Sadly no go, still does not work, I cant find any info on that driver anywhere. I went to device manager clicked show hidden devices and that is when it pops us as PCI to Cardbus bridge. I got the hardware IDs for it, they are as follows:

PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8039&SUBSYS_902D104D&REV_00
PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8039&SUBSYS_902D104D
PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8039&CC_060700
PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8039&CC_0607

Yet again please help!!!

If this is the case it may be a 32bit driver and your running a 64bit copy of Windows Seven

I downloaded the driver from that link and tried to install it. It says it can only be installed in Vista, so i tried changing it in compatibility mode and it wont let me change it.

I had no problem changing it when I tried. Just click on the file>compatibility tab>check the box run in compatibility mode>drop down menu>select Vista> check the box at the bottom run in compatibility mode.

We also haven't established yet if your ruining the 32 or 64 bit Seven

It is a Texas Instruments card bus controller. This is the one listed that pebbly has provided scanned with MSE no Threats found.View attachment 132549

if it won't work then it's probably a 32bit driver and you are running 64 bit.

If that is the case try running the one above in compatibility mode Vista. Post #7, Scan it first.

Here is a 64 bit driver froma different thrad by FZ21Z Who knows a lot about Sony laptops and more.http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/72636-missing-driver-win7-x64-texas-instruments-pcixx12.html Post #2

did you install in compat mode ? http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/316-compatibility-mode.html

 

[JordanGraegin]

yep

 

[pebbly]

OK Jordan, update the mobo drivers , this is win7 32bit Sony eSupport - VGN-NR260E - Software Updates & Drivers

 

[JordanGraegin]

Still no......

 

[pebbly]

In device manager , try updating from there and point to where you downloaded and extracted the files

 

[pebbly]

or try this link install in compat mode Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller - Vista Driver | Free Vista Drivers

 

[seekermeister]

If I understood, you said that the cardbus only appears as a ghost when you select "Show Hidden Devices" in the Device Manager. Try booting into safe mode and uninstalling it, and restart. Whether to use the New Found Hardware Wizard or not, depends on the driver...try it both ways.

 

[JordanGraegin]

nope still cantnread an sd card or anything in the usb drive. it detects them but cant read them

 

[JordanGraegin]

also when i install the driver that pebbly just recomnded me it says it can only be installed in vista. I try compability mode and its greyed out and does not allow me to.

 

[JordanGraegin]

Everysingle driver you gys have recomnded i have tried, i tried it in compability mode, safe mode, unstalling original driver reinstalling the new one. Nothing seems to work. I think there is no compatable driver out there yet.
