    Hi i just recently formated my laptop, it was my first time and sadly i erased the recovery partition too :(, well i had a hard time finding all the drivers, but i couldnt make some work from the webpage ( like the intel matrix storage) but i think it wont be a problem for me in the future.

    i only use this laptop for gaming, but i was checking and i have a unknow device that only information it gives to me is location : Location 1 (Internal High Definition Audio Bus).

    does it have to do something whit the sound? i noticed it is lower than it was before. and where i can find a driver for it, i went to IDT web and they dont give drivers, i went to gateway and i installed the driver but it didnt work for this.

    the hardware id are :

    HDAUDIO\FUNC_02&VEN_11C1&DEV_1040&SUBSYS_107B0690&REV_1002
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_02&VEN_11C1&DEV_1040&SUBSYS_107B0690

    i certainly dont know what that means, i dont know much about computers, i google them and it seems they are some sort of 56 kbps modem thing, but my IDT codec i have installed have the same id too

    i hope somebody can help me here :)

    So what OS are we talking here? Vista? XP?

    Looking like you are missing the audio driver.

    cheers ...

    I have the same issue. Were you ever able to resolve this, or does anyone have an answer?

    I seems like it would be your Optical HD Audio out, but i would assume it will install with the IDT driver.

    hrm.

    Seems i figured this out. I downloaded and installed the modem driver from gateway's website and it got rid of the unknown device. I thought it was audio as well because of the location, but that was a red herring.
