    Unknown device in XP - how do I troubleshoot?

    I've just built a new PC with XP Home. I've installed all the drivers that I can think of but there is still an Unknown Device when I go into Control Panel-->System-->hardware-->Device Manager.

    The Properties-->Detail page of this device shows "ACPI\ATK0110\1010110"

    Any ideas as to how I go about troubleshooting this? Could it be Power Management related (just guessing from the ACPI string).

    Are you using an A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard by chance?

    If you install the AIBooster software that came with the motherboard this should make the issue go away all being well.

    The ATK stands for AsusTeK, and this is a pseudo-device driver.
    The AIBooster software has a driver in it therefore if this is installed it should work - providing you havent already tried this
