*-display UNCLAIMED
description: VGA compatible controller
product: NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420]
vendor: nVidia Corporation
physical id: 0
bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0
version: a3
width: 32 bits
clock: 66MHz
capabilities: pm agp agp-2.0 vga_controller bus_master cap_list
configuration: latency=32 maxlatency=1 mingnt=5
Can someone explain to me what all this means especially the display: Unclaimed which is the problem i think. I have tried all the traditional ways to install drivers already (eg. Hardware Drivers and ENVY)
