    Many unknown devices in Dev Mgr


    I have an Alienware M17 R4, when I open the device manager there is a very long list of devices under "Other Devices" I have checked the Hardware ID on all of them and they all seem related to a Bluetooth device, I have run Driver easy Pro, Alienware update, and even tried uninstalling all devices one by one but as soon as you look for hardware changes they all come back to the same status. I don't know what to do anymore, please HELP.

    :)

  2. 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?

  3. Network devices listed under Unknown in Device Manager


    I have a Dell Inspiron M731R laptop upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Home 64-Bit that suddenly quit connecting to the home network. Was using wireless, so switched to an Ethernet cable, but still no luck. I just discovered that ALL of the network-related devices are now listed under an "Unknown" tab in the Device Manager. A check of properties of each item in that folder says they are all working properly, but that obviously isn't the case. I tried uninstalling each of the 4 items, but when they are recognized again they still show up under the Unknown tab. Any suggestions would be welcome.

    cd/dvd shows in Dev Mgr but not Dic Mgr or Explorer

    Usually a driver issue. Is there a yellow warning triangle in Device Manager? What is the make and model of this PC? Is it the one in your specs, or is that the XP machine? Try looking for a driver on the manufacturer's support site.
    XP uses only SMB 1.0, and by default that is disabled in Windows 10. You need to turn on 'SMB 1.0/CIFS Client' for a Windows 10 PC to be able to see and use shares on an XP machine, and 'SMB 1.0/CIFS Server' if you also want the XP machine to have access to shares on the Win10 PC. Turn Windows Features On or Off in Windows 10

    With SMB 1.0 enabled on the Win10 PC it should work, as it does here for this XP virtual machine:
