Re: new hardware found

Definately a bios upgrade, you can try removing the device to see if it's picked up again. Other than that download and install the latest drivers for the mobo and if necessary any BIOS upgrade you need to install.

Re: new hardware found

Sometimes it can just be Windows mis-identifying something on a boot up, removing it and rebooting will either force Windows to try and install it properly or (if it is a mistaken identification) remove it completely from your hardware profile.
