Okay, my friend has a small problem. See, when he goes to Device Manager there is nothing at all, but somehow, everything works fine on his computer like there is no problem at all.

Apparently there is no real need to fix it since everything works. But we were just wondering what happened, and how we could possibly fix it if we have to.

Thanks,
-Your homie.

hi charlie. uh.. give me a little while to check on this one...

You could try the SFC /scannow command - see the link below in my signature (System File Checker).

yeah that might work. we arent going to try it now in fear that we might make it worse.
but when we need to use device manager in the future. we will try that.

Hi, I just posted a similar prob in XP, only my pc doesn't do anything. Same symptom when accessing Device Manager: COMPLETELY BLANK SCREEN!!!

Have you solved your issue(s)? I'd appreciate any response you can give! Thanks!
