Unknown Vista device for Latitude D810

Hello sorry if this question has been answered already I have searched for a solution before posting this.
 
After installing Windows Vista on to my Latitude D810 notebook there's a device with no driver installed that I cannot seem to identify:
"PCI Simple Communications Controller"
With hardware ID's: "PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8038&SUBSYS_01861028&REV_00", "PCI\VEN_104C&DEV_8038&CC_078000"
I've looked thoroughly through the dell driver site and all over the net but cannot find any help, I just keep running into references for the wireless card and the "Texas Instruments PCI-x515 CardBus Controller", but device manager shows both of them installed and running correctly (nor is it the modem). I have already installed the sound driver and chipset drivers from the dell driver downloads.

Do you see your modem listed in Device Manager? If not, that may be what you are missing. Maybe Dell hasn't released one yet for Vista on your model. I see they have one for XP. (And they have one for Vista for my Inspiron model.)

Try Windows Update. You may have to look at the optional updates.

It's not the modem, that's detected and installed correctly, i've installed all windows updates...
 
I'm thinking it might be that card reader thing on the left hand side of the notebook in front of the pcmcia slot, i've never used it and are unsure as to what it is.

Did you ever figure this out? I have installed Vista on my D810 and when I try to use the PCMCIA card slot, I get the "Blue Screen Of Death" about 30 seconds after I put any PCMCIA card into the machine. Device Manager says everything is OK and I even had the motherboard and PCMCIA cage completely replaced - but to no avail. I'm thinking it's some Vista incompatibility with the Texas Instruments PCI-x515 Cardbus Controller, but I can't find anything on the Internet that indicates anyone else has had this kind of problem.
