    Run this and see what info comes up, it should give you a link to find driver - if need help in finding, post back what it found with details of device found


    Unknown Device Identifier 6.01
    Unknown Device Identifier enables you to identify the yellow question mark labeled Unknown Devices in Device Manager.
