    Hello

    I've done a custom WinXP Prof. install and my notebook runs as fast as hell.

    But: All devices work except two (Device Manager):
    - Unknown device
    - Fingerprint reader

    As everything works just fine I didn't care a long time, but now I want to complete them, too. So what could it be, the "Unknown device"? And where do I get the driver (and I mean JUST the driver, no software!) for the fingerprint reader?

    Thanks

    I'd stake a guess that the other item is the TPM-- Trusted Platform module.
