    I have a question about drives. I downgraded one of our dv2225nr laptops from Vista to XP Pro using a shrink wrapped copy XP Pro SP2 applied all patches & updates including SP3. The system appears to be working except for the following error in the Device Manager. Other devices has a yellow ?. I have three device listed under Other Devices they each have yellow ? and a yellow ! on the question mark. The three devices are 1) Coprocessor 2) Other PCI Bridge Device 3) SM Bus Controller. If I click on any of them there is no driver info listed. I contacted HP and the link they gave me did not offer any of these drivers. When I searched these, the only hits back referred to Vista. Any ideas on where I can get these drivers?
