In the hardware update wiz, select "No not at this time", next, select "install from a list or specific location", next, select "Don't search", next, check the box "show compatible hardware" and select from the list usually APCI Uniprocessor PC or (APCI Multiprocessor PC if you dual core cpu's), etc.. Choose or use the have disk option and browse the setup disk, then select next and ok and reboot.. If you have any concerns, then I suggest you let Gateway customer support guide you or confirm the proper selection.. http://www.gateway.com/index.shtml Cheers.. j;-j "Joe" wrote: > I did a little more research on the device and in details in hardware > manager it says it could be ACPI\AWY0001 what is that?
