It looks for drivers for unknown hardware. Anybody remember or have an idea?

If I remember after you scan it says you need a subscription or something to get the updates. But if you just read the results it tells you what you are missing and it is free. (no gaurantees) Here is a portable version of PC Wizard I use to scan for drivers. And if that does not work I use this The last two are both portable so it installs nothing.

I can't get it to do an auto update at all. I can manually install the drivers myself but need a good set. The card is originally for Windows ME.

I can't get it to do an auto update at all. I can manually install the drivers myself but need a good set. The card is originally for Windows ME. Wont help you but to bad my drive got crashed or else I had all the stuff you needed. I had 2 TV cards also and was hard to get them working and in full screen. Took me a week to get them working and I just gave the devices away lol But for other stuff, I dont really reconmend the driveragent as you have to buy that update option first. Plus, the people that are adding the drivers are just people like you and I. I always use CPU-Z to check what motherboard I need to update in combination of PcWizard if I find something that is 'unknown' (AHCI most of the time or SB bus). Most parts of the devices you need are or can be downloaded by the third party as: Intel INF, Realtek HD Audio, Realtek LAN, SB + NB drivers (AMD systems/ Geforce NVidia), Google (the) drivers Awards

I had an old AGP I had to manually install as a standard VGA device (with XP drivers) then it knew what it was and found the others.
