    DM: Device ManagerMy problem:I have a USB device that is not working properly, so I want to do some troubleshooting in the DM. However, I do not know which category the device is in or even what it would be called. I can remove the device and plug it back in, and the DM will refresh, but I cannot tell what was added without manually checking every category for a new item.Question: Is there a generic way to see that a device has been added and then find that device in the DM?

    GPU-Z device list enumeration, device order?

    Specifically, how are the the GPUs listed in the drop down sorted, or determined? Vendor and PCI ID? OS hardware device list? Other?

    Sorry if this was answered somewhere already. Searching for "GPU LIST ORDER" and like terms were not helpful.

    Thanks.

    X800 GTO2 = Unknown Device

    I flashed the BIOS on my X800 GTO2 last night and it is listed in the Device Manager as an Unknown Device. Is this normal?
