I have a problem with a mysterious "PCI Card" that appears in my system under "other devices" The device has an exclamation point over it, and says that the drivers are loaded incorrectly. I have no idea what the drivers are, and all the cards I've placed on the motherboard myself, I never installed a "PCI Card" Does anyone know what this is and if so, how can I get drivers for it

I've had a few problems that sound similar to what is happening to you. Except my unknown device was called PCI Bridge. I finally figured out that the mysterious device was my on-board infrared connector. When you update the driver in device manager, try making it a "Built-in infrared port on laptop or desktop." It worked for me.

Good luck,

Steve

BTW, this only seems to happen in Win95. I set up a Win98 machine with identical hardware and Device Manager didn't show any mystery devices.

What motherboard is it Mr Toe?????

Normally a fix is on the disk / cd that came with the board such as a vgart.vxd upgrade or ali1707 patch etc.

Have a check and let us know
