During one of my many re-boots (have recently installed WinXP), I suddenly
got the message that Windows had found a new hardware device (Application
Manager). However, it cannot find the current/missing driver anywhere on any
of my local hard drives. I have no idea what this device is, what it does,
and how it will affect my computer if I just disable it. I've tried locating
the driver for it online, on my WinXP install disk, but to no avail. I can
only assume that I must have done something to accidentally delete it (sad to
say that I have not had the chance to purchase and install new Norton
Utilities version, so no protected files to search thru & restore).
Does anyone know how I can locate the driver, or can I just disable it
without any real affect to the operation of my computer?
Thx~~~
