Where in Device Manager does this unknown device show up? Is any of your hardware not identified/not working?

The only driver missing when installing Vista on my R60 was the power management driver.

That's because it's listed as an other device, O being between N and P. :lol:

If you saved a copy of the SWTools folder you can have Vista search it for the driver. Sometimes XP drivers will work in Vista. Have you tried Windows Update? Sometimes that works as well.

The first thing to do is to uninstall through device manager and reboot.
