    I show this as an "unknown device" after fresh install of Windows 7. Does anyone know what this is and how to resolve this?

    "on Intel(R) ICH9M LPC Interface Controller - 2919"

    The drivers for this device are not installed (Code 28)

    It could be the TPM (Trusted Platform Module).

    a) grab the latest Intel chipset drivers. I think that the current version is 9.1.1.1025

    b) put the file in a directory/folder somewhere, rename it to a much shorter name such as intel.exe

    c) open an elevated-privilege (administrator) command line box in the directory/folder that currently holds your intel.exe

    d) from your new command line box run "intel.exe -overall" and wait.

    e) reboot

    The reason you want to run the chipset driver installer with the -overall switch is that sometimes admin privileges get in the way of updating ALL of the intel chipset devices on a machine. The -overall switch as well as running it from a elevated-privilege command line box takes care of this problem.

    After the machine reboots, look in device manager and at the point, chase down updated drivers for ALL of your intel devices.

    When updating a machine, you should really update drivers in this order:

    chipset/.inf drivers
    ICH/MCH/disk controllers
    GMA/other video
    networking
    sound
    HID, etc, etc

    It all begins with the complete and successful installation of the base level .inf drivers. Those provide the basic info to the windows device enumerators that in turn tell any follow on device driver installers what to do.

    The same basic concept applies to Nvidia and AMD-based machines, both laptop and desktop.
