Base system device missing (M1210)

Question

I have Vista Ultimate RTM installed as well as the XP chipset and system drivers. All the hardware components seem to work (or Device manager shows them without errors), but there is a base system device still missing and I can't tell what it is. Can someone look up the HID so I know what it is? I'm hoping it's not some low level device that might cause problems in the long run. This is on an XPS M1210 that I just got a month ago. HID = PCI\VEN_1180&DEV_0843&SUBSYS_01D71028&REV_01 Thanks! Message Edited by fishsauce on 11-26-200604:00 PM

It's probably the Ricoh XD Picture Card Host Controller. See this thread:   http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=vista&message.id=2480

You're right, it was the Ricoh xD-Picture Card Host Controller, and pointing it to the XP drivers installs it.   I thought that was already installed with the stock drivers as well as the one on MS Update, but guess not.   Thanks!  I now have a fully functional system with no hardware incompatibilities and rated at a 3.4 with stock video drivers.
