Unknown device-Dimension4700

Question

I recently had to reformat my hard drive and in the process I accidentally lost the backup partition with all of the Dell software.  After reloading windows xp, I downloaded all of the missing drivers from Dell's support website including the drivers for my specific chipset, however I still have an unknown device listed in the device manager.  I'm not sure what it is but the location is listed as 'on Intel(R) 82801FB LPC Interface Controller - 2640' and the device ID is 'ACPI\PNP0401\4&3BB7459&0'.  Does anyone know how I can use the information to find out what device this is and where I can get drivers for it as none of the drivers I downloaded from Dell seem to work.  Thanks

Huntlok, Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum. That is part of the chipset drivers. Try reinstalling the drivers to see if that will resolve the issue.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I have tried reinstalling the chipset software that I downloaded from Dell's website for my specific model a couple of times.  While it installs, it seems to be doing its job because my plug and play deviced all go off then come back on, however this unknown device still remains in the device manager.  I have even tried directing the device manager to look for  drivers for that device in the folder where the chipset software was extracted with no luck.  I tried installing chipset software from Intel's site and that just made things worse until reinstalling Dell's chipset software.  Everything seems to be working for the moment, but I'd appreciate any further advice anyone has to offer. Message Edited by Huntlok on 07-21-2005 08:21 PM
