I had to rebuild one of my pc's. I had two items in the device mangler that had the yellow question marks, The ethernet and the pci communications. I resolved the ethernet and now have internet connectivity. I have tried some of the suggestions I found online but i just do not want to keep downloading drivers I may not need. I have a dell dimension 8250 that is way out of warrenty. I did dl and install the chipset but that did not resolve the issue. Any thoughts?
PCI Simple Communications Device type: Other devices Manufacturer: Unknown Location: PCI Slot 2 (PCI bus 2, device 8, function 0) Device status: The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
