    I followed completely Arkit3kt's guide installing a clean XP on my T61p, except my XP has SP3 with it. I didn't have to install UAA driver. Now it finds a PCI device every time it boots up, and I can't even find any unknown device in the hardware device manager. The notebook runs fine, but I'm tired of being bugged by this message. Anyone had similar problem? Thanks in advance.

    Did you read the part in the guide where it says if you can't find a driver, burn the SWTools folder onto a disc and let the driver updater search the disc for the driver?

    The SM Bus, the power management driver and the TPM driver is where I'd start.
