and needs to load the drivers.but i don't have new hardware.
so in device manger it put's unknown device 4 times before it stops.
dose anyone know whats going on.

Boot into Safe Mode, open Device Manager, delete/remove all devices listed
as unknown or with errors, reboot and see what Windows finds.
 
Already Tried That.It Just Puts Them Back.
saying it found new hardware.i click cancel
but it still puts them in device manager.

Did you get a CD with your computer that would contain drivers for your
motherboard perhaps? It's possible Windoze is finding proprietary hardware
unique to your motherboard and you need to install these drivers manually
from such a CD.
 
Download "Unknown Devices", run it. It will tell what each device is.(It
mirrors Device Manager and removes Question marks with Answers.)
 
thanks to everyone.
