Coprocessor unknown device?

[Edir]

OK, so I have a 'barebones' computer, and I am not exactly sure whats inside. I know the motheroard is MSI, the CPU is Intel Pentium Dual E2200 (2.20 GHz), 2GB ram and some other stuff irrelevant to this. I am running Windows 7 SP1 dual-booted with Linux Ubuntu. I noticed in Windows, that in device manager, under Unknown Devices, there is a 'Coprocessor'. I really don't know where to start looking for drivers for it. Under properties, it says:

The 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.

Clicking 'Update driver' simply causes the computer to fail to find it. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the device to no avail.
I even tried MSI Live Update 5, incase it was something that came with the motherboard, but apparently not.
What should I do now?

Need the modal number of your Motherboard then go to MSI's web site and find the driver. The one on the disk may be out of date. Just a quick search with out knowing your Motherboards model number....

I tried getting the driver - I think my coprocessor is not MSI though - or not there by default

Looks like it may be the Nvidia chip. Try downloading the following and see if it works...

You may want to do a BIOS update as well...

Thankyou! I saw the possible ones, and i unchecked display (obviously wasn't display), Ethernet (again obviously not that) and Storage, which it obviously wasn't. This left SMU driver. I tried it, and voila, coprocessor is not an unknown device! No idea where in device manager it is now though.

I probably could have lived with out the driver - my PC works fine. It just bugs me when things aren't right.

"coprocessor is not an unknown device!"

That is just what windows defaults to if it does not know what kind of device it is.

... wait, how'd you know i've got an Nvidia gpu? And yes I know that. I'm saying Windows now knows what it is

I googled around about your motherboard and the error read on some forums that I was an Nvidia driver issue then looked up the driver for your motherboard.
