Question:
I have one unknown hardware on my computer - how do I find out what it is?
We had a friend build us a computer and he neglected to install drivers for several things. They've all been sorted, but there is still one unknown piece of hardware on it. I followed the steps for the hardware wizard to figure out what it was, but had no luck.
How do I find out what it is?
Additional Details
You can't right click on hardware listed in the hardware wizard list.
Darn right a name would be helpful because if I knew the name I'd know what it is and I wouldn't be asking this question.
OK this is all the info that comes up when I do that
The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
Location: on Intel(R) 82801GB/GR (ICH7 Family) LPC In

If it stands on RIGHT SIDE FROM THE FRONT I think it is a software related with RAM.
