Hi all, I had to reinstall windows xp home yesterday and formatted the drive when I did it. I have managed to get all my drivers and things back on and its running fine but when I go to device manager there is a yellow exclamation mark next to other devices and it drops down to unknown device. Is there any way that I can find out what this is. Its not anything that is plugged in via usb as I have checked everything and its all installed. I don't even know if it's a problem but its annoying me seeing that yellow triangle! thanks in advance for any help.

You could try using something like Unknown Device Identifier.
I've not used it myself so I can't vouch for its effectiveness.0 -
thanks for that, I will download it now and try it out, will report back.0
