Desktops & All-In-Ones

I have one of the tiny little nvidia ion based Aspire Revo R1600, like this:

With 4 gig of ram and a new SSD drive running win 8.1/64 it seems pretty reasonable.

I've noticed that in the device manager something shows up lacking drivers identifying itself as a "coprocessor".

Seems like this machine would be happier if this coprocessor was active and had its driver installed.

It's an old machine, and support for Win 8/64 may be unavailable, but I'd at least like to find out what this coprocesser is.

I figured it was a graphics chip, and I've visited www.nvidia.com and let their site auto detect and install graphics drivers. They seem to be running fine.

I usually look for chipset, video, storage, sound, etc drivers. Never dealt with a "coprocessor" driver.

Anyone know anything about a coprocessor driver?
