Hi,

I think it might be the chipset driver that you need to reinstall and you might do better if you download the drivers from here for Windows 7: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3681&dl=1#driver

I believe the Away Mode Device was something introduced in windows xp to allow media center to record programs to the hard drive in a low power standby state. If you don't use Media Center to record TV programmes you may as well go into the bios and dissable it. From experience Media Center in Vista and 7 work fine without it.
