ACPI error and "unkown device"

[Guest]

Looks like I am not the only one with these problems!!! I have the "unknown
device" in my device manager, it shows as a coprocessor, I do have a duo core
processor in my HP notebook. I checked and they are both showing in device
manager. This is the hardware id that I got:
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0271&SUBSYS_30B5103C&REV_A3
Also, I am getting an ACPI error in event viewer:
IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 3,
function 0. Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance.

Anybody have any suggestions??

You need to post the device id from the properties page for the device.

Here is a database that will help you nail down the device manufacturer and
name.

btw, the way you use PCIDatabase.com is to put 10DE in the Vendor Search (it
is nVidia) and 0271 in the Device Search (it is the Promise Technologies
FastTrak TX2000 EIDE controller). That's how the database works.

I assume the result means it is an eide controller in the nvidia chip set.
