Softpedia Editor's Review for Unknown Device Identifier
|
Identify unknown devices in your system and search for workable drivers
Written by Cosmin Anton on November 18th, 2011
Drivers can pose serious problems when you don`t have the right ones. Fortunately, Windows 7 comes with a complete package of drivers that generally cover all your needs. But what happens when your computer can`t recognize a new device and you don`t have the required drivers for it?
Unknown Device Identifier is a handy application that can identify unknown drivers in your Device Manager. The application displays detailed information about the vendor name, device type and model, PnPID, OEM name and even the exact name for your unknown devices.
At the first run it automatically scans the system and detects all known and unknown drivers. All information is organized by Chip, PnPID, Vendor, Device and Chip Vendor for each individual driver so you can quickly access and use it to search for the required drivers.
Why is this info so important? It can help you identify the unknown device and contact the hardware manufacturer for support. Also you can search for the corresponding driver on the Internet with a single mouse click.
For the users that want to save their drivers list, the application allows them to save the entire list as a text file or print it.
Unknown Device Identifier can successfully detect a wide range of devices including: USB Devices, IEEE, ISA Plug&Play devices, AGP Bus, PCI, PCI-E or eSATA devices. With Unknown Device Identifier you can finally identify those yellow question mark labeled unknown devices in your Device Manager window.
