Acpi Nsc6001

Some embedded systems, industrial PCs, and thin clients (e.g., Advantech, IEI) still include legacy Super I/O chips for serial/parallel port compatibility. Also, certain ASRock and Gigabyte boards have a BIOS option called "ACPI Auto Configuration" that sometimes generates ghost devices.

The ACPI\NSC6001 hardware ID corresponds to a National Semiconductor IrDA Fast Infrared Port, primarily used in older Acer laptop models. Drivers for this legacy component can be installed via Windows Device Manager, typically requiring compatibility modes for Windows 10 or 11, or by disabling the device to clear error warnings.
