    Unknown device drivers not installing manually


    Up until my update this morning I have had a wireless adapter for my Xbox 360 controller. I have been manually assigning it driver updates but this time, I try to update it and nothing happens.


    I go to manage devices
    Other devices
    Unknown device

    Browse my computer

    Pick from list

    Xbox peripherals

    360 controler

    Next

    Yes

    "Windows has successfully updated your drivers"

    But nothing changes except the yellow allert is now gone but its still unknown.
    My searching "Unknown device drivers not installing manually" yeaded only unknown device driver tutorials.

    Here are the driver properties.

  3. 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?
