    Hi i'm running m15x vista 64 bit atm. and theres two (!) in device manager....and wondering which drivers i'll need for it. (the problem is that i didn't install the drivers yet)

    1.) 6To4Adapater. - main one of concern, there's no problems with my internet right now, but would fixing this driver problem make anything faster?

    2.) PCI Memory controller - this one is probably the turbo mem.. can i safely leave the (!) there because i don't want to use the turbo mem anyways (i'm on ssd)

    The 6to4 Adapter is an IPV6 addon (best way to explain it) for your NIC. Do you have SP1 for Windows Vista installed? I haven't seen that message since SP1 was released.

    This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
