I clean installed W7 Professional x86 on HP dv4-2101tu which came pre-installed with W7 Home Premium. Installed the drivers given on HP Support.

Getting two of my devices under Other Devices with error messages; (screenshot attached)
1) PCI Simple Communications Controller
2) Unknown Device

For the unknown device, installed Unknown Device Identifier (screen shot attached), right clicked the unknown device to 'Find Driver' it re-directed to web page with Realtek Driver. Re-installed the Realtek Card Driver from here, but still no luck.

Pls assist.

You may try updating your chipset drivers, and see if that helps any.

Try the HP site here - it says it can scan your system, but I haven't had much with HP's update. You might have more success.
