Computer problem (unknown devices)?
I just restored my computer for the second time since discovering this problem.
For some reason, in Device Manager, it lists 2 PCI devices and one Unknown device in the "Other devices"
I have tried installing them by default install but they dont install.
I have tried unplugging things to see if it would change it but so far no luck.
Is there a way to find out what a device is (web site or something) when there is no information directly about it?
please give any help you can

I think you have a conflict device, hardware or a driver. To know what kind or type of device you have, go to:
Start > right click My computer > click Properties > (under Hardware Tab) click Device Manager > click the plus sign of Other Devices > right click the one you want to know what type of device > click properties > In General Tab, you will see what type of device it is.
Try also to check if the device your checking have a yellow question mark in the device manager. If this is the case, Windows cannot recognize the type installed. Now, if you see a Yellow ( ! ) point or a red ( X ) over the icon, this means that your type installed is recognize by Windows but you have incorrect driver or you have a conflict of that type,
