Unknown Device (Mini Card) Win 7 on T61p

Just installed Win7 (64 bit) on my T61p & all seems to be well - except that I get reported a missing driver for a "mini card" - code 28. Anyone know what this might be - & better yet, where I might find a driver for it?
thanks!

DELL WIRELESS 5560 HSPA + Mobile broadband Mini-Card - Win 8

Good morning everyone.
I have a big problem with ultrabook "YOUR 3460."
I updated the S.O. Windows 8, but the "DELL WIRELESS 5560 HSPA + Mobile Broadband Mini-Card" does not work.
On the website of DELL, I found a type of driver, but installing it in the device manager, does NOT recognize the card. How do I proceed? Can someone help me, please? Tomorrow I need to connect mobile ...
Thank you.

Hi Fabio79,
Please check in BIOS if the WWAN card is detected in BIOS or not. Also, is the wireless driver (network controller) listed in device manager under 'Network Adapters' or 'Other Devices'?
Turn off the computer, restart it and press F2 key as soon as the Dell logo appears.
Navigate to 'Advanced' screen, select 'Miscellaneous Devices' and press Enter.
Check if 'Internal WWAN' is enabled. Navigate to Exit screen and select 'Exit Saving Changes'. Once done, download the drivers from this link: http://dell.to/XEzTO0.
Hope this helps.
Keep me posted with the status.

HOW TO FIX HD AUDIO/UNKNOWN DEVICE/DEVICE WON'T START LENOVO H320 Win 7 64-bit

Fix for - HD Audio devices won't start or you can't load correct driver. Lenovo H320 - Win 7 64-bit I-3 processor. 5 series/3400 chipset
Here is a working procedure to fix the problem when you install windows 7 64-bit and can't get the correct drivers installed for the HD Audio devices 1)Realtek AC97 HD Audio device id = HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0662&SUBSYS_17AA3604&REV_1001
and 2)Intel HD Audio device id = HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8086&DEV_2804&SUBSYS_80860101&REV_1000 Regards >>> Sucromatic
For an IBM LENOVO 320 with Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium Version download these drivers to a directory in a second partition to prevent this nightmare from happenning in the future.
1)AC 97 high def audio version
Realtek HDA 2.67found on http://wikidrivers.com/wiki/Main_Page or at www.realtek.comon right of screen on homepage and
2) Intel HD GRAPHIC and HD Audio version
Intel GMA 15.22.52.2559 (Vista/7) 14.46.8.5387 (XP)
found on
http://wikidrivers.com/wiki/Main_Page.
Select your OS and and whether 32 or 64 bit. I recommend the .exe version as it works very smoothly. Uninstall HD AUDIO DEVICE or whatever it is called maybe "unknown device" with ac97 device ID "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0662&SUBSYS_17AA3604&REV_1001." Afterwards install AC 97 HD Audio Driver.
After install reboot and wait till computer completely starts.
Now uninstall Intel HD Graphics or your graphics device. When you get the uninstall box open, select delete the driver software for this device and then OK. When prompted to reboot select NO and Immediately start the install of the Intel GMA driver. Which installs both the Graphics Adapter and the Intel HD Audio. Reboot when finished and all HD Audio devices will be functional (hopefully). You will now have these versions installed. As shown in device manager/device properties/Driver tab
Now uninstall Realtek AC97 driver you first installed to delete annoying Red Lexmark/realtek icon in Notification area (If your computer shows it after reboot) and windows driver update will install a microsoft driver (shown below)that works without the stupid lexmark red icon. See below. You will now have these versions installed. As shown in device manager/device properties/Driver tab
High Definition Audio Device
Driver Provider: Microsoft
Driver Date: 11/19/2010
Driver Version: 6.1.7601.17514

Voila. Now go to intel and run a driver update scan and it will likely correctly identify your Intel pieces and offer downloads for any that are not current. Good Luck!

Windows 7 not recognizing device - Dell Wireless 5620 EVDO HSPA Mobile Broadband Mini Card

Windows 7 is not recognizing my Dell Wireless 5620 EVDO HSPA Mobile Broadband Mini Card (Qualcomm Gobi 2000). I can't even uninstall the driver, it says that I don't have "sufficient permission" to stop device or something to that effect
(though I'm an administrator). I also can't re-install the same or different driver. I might have installed the wrong driver, though this is supposed to be the correct one according to Dell after typing in my service tag. I went to the FTP
to get one specifically for "Verizon Wireless", but I can't uninstall the prior driver.
How can I fix these issues? Thanks.

Hi,
Any update?
Have you tried safe mode mentioned in the first reply? What is the status of the driver in device manager? For "Verizon Wireless", have you installed any verizon software or related verizon device? Uninstall this kind software, then uninstll driver again
as a test.
Contact this support, maybe they can give some different ideas.

Hi:
You may need to reinstall the graphics driver, but I think it is the same one you have now. It is from 2012 and so all they did was say it was good for W8.1 too.

If that doesn't work, then unfortunately I don't know what the issue could be.

1039 card shows "Unknown Device"

I recently changed from the internal modem to an external cable modem, with cable hookup through the ethernet port. Now my Maxtor 3000DV external hard drive no longer shows up on the desktop. System profiler shows Firewire Bus with 1394 "Storage Front Panel" and "Unknown Device". The Storage Front Panel is a Maxtor External Hard Drive, 80 GB One Touch. The other (Unknown) should be the Maxtor 3000DV, but it is not showing up on the desktop. Is the ethernet hookup to the cable modem blocking the 3000DV? Or what?
Martha

I'm thinking that if you remove all power from the Computer, including clock Batteries, let it set a few minutes, replace batteries, power up, then connect one FW device at a time, it might fix it.

G555. Need drivers for SM Bus and another Unknown device for Windows XP.

I try to install Windows XP on my G555. I got all other drivers, but cannot find drivers for SM Bus and an Unknown device. And what's this device?
The second problem is that after I installed all the drivers, the card reader disappeared. It was there after I installed Windows XP, before I install drivers.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Simpleguy,
Welcome to the forum!
In thinkpads, it's usually intel chipset driver. For AMD based G555, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the driver you need:- http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/DriversDownloads/drivers_show_2476.html
As for other unknown device, find it's PCI ID with any other known information and paste here.
Hope it helps.

[Helix gen2] Clean Install of Windows 8.1 - one unknown device left

Hi,
I did a clean install of win 8.1 with the suggested procedure (System Updater, Solution Center)
Unfortunately, there is one unknown device left in the device manager:
Intel(R) Serial IO SPI Host Controller - 9CE5
ACPI\VFSI6101\1
which I thought could be solved by this driver:
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-helix-series-laptops/thinkpad...
But without success. So could anyone help? Which is the right driver? Or what should I do?
Thx Ralf

Good day and welcome to the community.
I found a few vague references of VFSI6101 being related to a Validity Fingerprint Sensor.
Looking at the Helix Gen2 driver pages: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-helix-series-laptops/thinkpad...
and specifically at the FPR software package page:
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-helix-series-laptops/thinkpad...
there's a reference to: "Synaptics FP Sensors(WBF) VFS6101". Pretty close!
So you might try that to see if it clears up the orphaned device.
Hope this helps a bit.
Regards.

Unknown Device!!!! HELP!!!!

I already have the software installed, and I know that my usb ports work because i've used them in the past with other hardware. I just bought my ipod today, and when I plug it in a little symble thats the same as the one beside of the usb port pops up, when clicke on, it says unknown device. I can't even access it so much as to format it. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to have wasted this money. And I'm on a PC btw.

I've got the same problem... I'll list all the details..
I have an iPod Photo 30 gig.. worked fine on my old computer, plugged it in and it was great, not a problem in the world.
I then put together a new PC, 3.0Ghz P4... and installed windows and put it all together again. I restored my database from my old iTunes library. When I connected the iPod it worked... and began tranferring and updating.. but then it crashed.. and it mentioned something to do with an I/O error and that the iPod had to be disconnected, and it also mentioned something to do with a timeout error.
Suddenly, half the music on my iPod wouldn't play, it skipped skipped skipped... really annoying. I tried to format the iPod using the iPod software... buuut it told me that it wasnt an iPod that was connected. (Funny that... lol)
After working away at the problem I decided to format and try the iPod again... still no luck, and its really getting to me.
What happens now... is, you connect it, it says Found new hardware... Apple iPod... ... Disk Drive... ... then iTunes loads... then iTunes freezes... then the iPod disconnects 2 mins later, then iTunes unfreezes. Now it says the iPod is an unknown device, and that it has Malfunctioned.
This is really annoying me. Ive tried to download updates from Microsoft, but I cant. Theres an error in the validate thingo, Ill have to call them sometime, but thats irrelevant. Does anyone know a fix? Or... someone mentioned the firewire works... I have a firewire card... where can I buy the Firefire cable from? And... how can I contact apple for help, if I need to?
Annoying though, because the USB method worked like a charm before this. BTW this iPod still connects perfectly on other pcs... but it doesnt have the music library I want lol...
Sorry for the long post, but I figure the more detail the better. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a heap!
