The same thing happened to me on my Gateway laptop, but I have Optiarc
AD-7563A. I resolved this issue by contacting Gateway live chat support.
They told me the following: open regedit (Registry Editor) and navigate
to
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E 965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
and to delete values UpperFilter and/or LowerFilter. I then rebooted and
problem solved. The long string of letters and numbers will probably be
different for your Optiarc model. I suggest contacting your computer
manufacturer and trying to get live chat support. Let me know how it
works out.
