    Hi everyone!

    ok, lately I have flashed my bios & since then, when I open the Device Manager, I see this sticking out in Other Devices: PCI Device, both with yellow question marks.

    In PCI Device Properties, its listed as:
    PCI Device
    Device type: Other devices
    Manufacturer: Unknown
    Location: PCI bus 0, device 29, function 0
    Device status: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)To reinstall the drivers for this device, click reinstall driver.

    As you might imagine, I already tried, but windows doesnt know jack about it. I also tried every hardware CD that came with this puter, no joy. I dont know what to do from here.

    I have XP MCE, my box was custom built at a computer specialised shop, I can give more specific info about it if needed...

    Thanks,
    ThinWhiteDuke

    Should mean some card in a PCI slot does not have drivers loaded. What things do you have in PCI slots ? See what device manager regonizes and see what's left over. If you remove it does yellow warning go away. If so, load drivers for that device.
