    Do you have the resource disk? It is probably the chipset driver.

    The 2nd one is the Free Fall Sensor, you can get it from support.dell.com under SATA Devices on the drivers page.

    Google suggests that the first one is some sort of infrared receiver. Is there any driver like that on the Alienware support website?
