Fix the issue with base system device not found in Device Manager

I recently did a clean install of Windows 7 on my PC and downloaded all the drivers from the manufacturer's website and thought everything was fine. I happened to go to Device Manager and saw that there was a problem with Base System Device.

Actually there were multiple Base System Device driver errors, all with question marks. I was surprised because I thought I had downloaded the important drivers for the system, such as the graphics card, touchpad, network adapter etc.

Unfortunately, it seems that I did not download all the drivers. Eventually, I figured out what the problem was and I no longer got the error message in Device Manager. In this article, I will show you how to fix the driver problem in Windows.
