Windows 8 on my T430s - Unknown Device in device manager

[dcipher]

I have just installed a fresh copy of windows 8 on my T430s. I followed the instructions posted by Lenovo (basically, update the bios to the latest, run the install, then install the system update 5 utility).

I installed all the drivers that system update 5 found... still had some unknown devices, so went one by one through all the windows 8 drivers on the support site. I still have a single device listed under "other devices" that is "Unknown device".

Properties show "on MS ACPI-Compliant Embedded Controller" but no other details.
Status shows: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

Under the details tab it says hardware ids: "ACPI\VEN_LEN&DEV_0078"
tried googling, but nothing came up...

Anyone have any ideas? Anyone else install windows 8 fresh?

Thanks

Now I see that the post that I linked to is from the same OP! LOL.

Oh well, at least it is in the thinkpads.com archives now if someone ever has to search in the future.
