Where can I find the drivers to an unknown device in the device manager, here is the message I getUnknown Deviceon Microsoft ACPI-Compliant SystemThe drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.After a while my computer freezes, and then it doesn't boot up without being in safe mode.I already tried everything, I was originally on windows 8.1, I downgraded to windows 8, and now I am windows 7.another thing is the display adapter will display a yellow triangle after the computer crashes, and then I try to re install my video drivers or downgrade, and even after I do so, the computer still freezes. Actually the computer is not fully compatible with Windows 7 and that is why you are receiving the ACPI error. If you look on the Dell website you will see that dell has not provided support for either Windows 7 nor Windows 8.
Dell only supportsWindows XP and Windows Vista.The ACPI error is caused by the AMD Away feature that Dell implemented for Windows XP and Windows 7 does not support that feature. I have the exact same system and I have not been able to find a complete solution to the ACPI error.One website, notes there is no AMD Away driver for any Windows systems.Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Microsoft Acpi Driver Windows 7
Somewhere on the internet I found a package that set the device to null, but you the4n get a message in Windows 7 telling you the AMD Away is not supported in Windows 7. I found this several months ago when I was upgrading a Dell 531 for my aunt.I have looked around for the info but have been unable to locate it again.The error could also be stopped if someone changed the flag in the BIOS.
On the system I was working on there was no option to disable the AMD Away feature. So Dell screwed up when they programmed the BIOS with the AMD Away feature permanentlyenabled.Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
