Way to get detailed information on a device?

[Entity]

I'm trying to figure out what device I have installed in my laptop. It's a MiniPCI card that should be a Intersil PrismII, but when I try to use PrismII drives with it, I can't get it to work. I'm trying to find out whatever details on the device I can...what is there that is better than the device manager (this is in XP, btw.)?

This might help

One thing that's always bothered me about Windows is the lack of a good PCI bus listing program, like 'lspci' in linux

lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-760 MP [IGD4-2P] System Controller (rev 11)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-760 MP [IGD4-2P] AGP Bridge
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-766 [ViperPlus] ISA (rev 02)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-766 [ViperPlus] IDE (rev 01)
00:07.3 Bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-766 [ViperPlus] ACPI (rev 01)
00:07.4 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-766 [ViperPlus] USB (rev 07)
00:09.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7892A U160/m (rev 02)
00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 04)
00:0c.1 Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Live! MIDI/Game Port (rev 01)
00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 (rev 30)
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV20 [GeForce3] (rev a3)

And you can add -v to make it more verbose, telling you all the features each device supports.

Yeah, I was considering loading linux to test it, but that's a bit extreme.

For me installing Windows is the extreme case.
