Driver for Dell e6410

I need a drive for 'unknown device' in device manager. I have a dell e6410 and loaded windows 7 x64 on it. I tried all the drivers that cam ewith the cd and search forever looking for something to no avail.
The driver details show a value of:
ACPI\SMO8800

Recommend going to support.dell.com  Enter service tag.  then windows 7  That sounds like a chipset driver is needed.  There may be more than one for your computer to install.  download all of the drivers that you may need before you start installing.  there will be several restarts of your computer and you won't want to have to go back to the website after each restart.
It looks like there are four available chipset drivers for that model

Forget the cd my friend. You want lastest drivers from dell website.

go here click drivers and download  the drviers and install them one by one. you are missing one driver and it is out in that website. if you give us screen shot of those driver page  I can help you find which one is missing.
