Unsupported Device - - E-Button?

How do I eliminate that unsupported device (yellow question mark) which I believe is the Dimension 8100 E-Button, now that I am using XP-SP1? Installing Dell Solution Center doesn't get rid of it on SP1. Is there a place inmy registry I can hack it out? RSVP Please. Thanks.

    gospata,

    Try upgrading your BIOS to XP2 and see if that gets rid of the unsupported device listing.

    If you still have a problem with the E-Button and unsupported device this is how I cured the problem after upgrading to XP. You need to install the driver from DELL RESOURCE CD2/RESOURCE CENTRE / ESUPPORT. The annoying question mark will disappear although as you are probably aware the E-Button will not work as Dell discontinued this service. Removeing the tick from Start/Run/Msconfig/Startup/Dell Resource Centre will remove the icon from the taskbar.

    Hope this helps

    (I also have SP1 installed)
