If you are performing a clean install or have run into the problem of an unidentified device in the Windows device manager, an unlikely assistant may be at your aid: the open source community as hosted by Google. UnknownDevices is a utility hosted on Google Code by Michael A. Bosse. Accordingly, "UnknownDevices is a small utility that was written to provide computer technicians with a simple way to identify those 'Unknown Device' devices that show up in Microsoft Windows after a fresh install."
The software successfully detects unknown hardware that lacks a device driver in Microsoft Windows. Computer users faced with this problem may want to give the utility a try in order to identify which device driver they are missing.
