Hello everyone, this is my first post on these forums so apologies if the formatting or wording of some things are slightly off! So I have a custom built gaming PC and have run into issues as a result of a particular driver apparently not being installed, I have been in contact with Microsoft support about it as well as trying various suggested troubleshooting methods but so far nothing has worked. The culprit apparently is the 'PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller' according to Device Manager, below is the discussion that I have had so far with Microsoft support employees, if anyone can spot any glaring derps on my behalf in terms of not properly doing what they are suggesting or just any other fixes that would be great! ~~~Support Discussion Starts Here~~~ I have tried finding downloads for this driver and have used the preset 'Update driver software' function but it only returns errors. Below is an image of how Device Manager is showing the driver as not being installed: Basic System Information: OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.10240 Build 10240 Other OS Description Not Available OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Name DESKTOP-AEGEE74 System Manufacturer MSI System Model MS-7984 System Type x64-based PC System SKU Default string Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3504 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s) BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc.

Package Version: 3.0 Publisher: Microsoft Windows Hardware and Devices Find and fix problems with devices and hardware. Package Version: 3.0 Publisher: Microsoft Corporation Also I have used the Intel Driver Update Utility Installer and manually downloaded the driver as well as using a specific driver installation CD that came with my mobo. None of them have worked as all have returned errors in the installation process: Also Windows Update registers that this driver is missing and queues it for update -when I click 'Install Now' for said update the window just hangs on the loading symbol next to the button which is then grayed out and if I click anywhere on that window I just get a Windows chime sound. It appears as though it also gets stuck on trying to install as when I look at the update process in task manager it is not using any of my network, CPU or disk -probably because it runs into the same error of trying to update a driver that is not actually there. As such I am kind of stumped as to what to do given that none of the Intel software links/downloads are able to successfully install the driver and that various update and installation utilities all fail to do so as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |
The first driver took care of the PCI Data Acquisition and Signal Processing Controller and all but one of the Unknown Devices. Finally the second one took care of the last Unknown Device in the Device Manager.
