Windows xp clean install with unknowd device

[jfdabiri]

Hi,
i have an ibm thinkpad A21m P-III. i installed a fresh install of xp on it. all the devices show up ok on device manager (modem, lan, infrared, cd, floppy, .....), except that under "other devices", unknown device shows up with a yellow exclamation sign. any idea what this is, and where can i get the driver for it?
thanks.

Delete the device, then click on Control Panel/Add Hardware and it will tell you what the device is.
