    So, I reinstalled windows 7 64 bit and I believe I've gotten all the drivers installed, but I have 1 I just can't locate. The Hardware ID is ACPI\SMO8800 anybody got any ideas?

    Assuming you have a M11x you're looking for the 'ST Microelectronics DE351DL Free Fall Sensor' available here

    Sorry about that. No, it's an M17x R2.

    Most likely the same driver is available from the M17x download page. Have a look

    Also, your signature has an M17x R-1 specification in it, which is misleading. you should update that.
