Dunno Dude. That's the info gathered by the save_hwids utility. I'm fairly new to this twiddling with drivers malarkey, so I'm fumbling in the dark quite a bit.
I created a custom DP which works OK on all three machines using the .inf below. Still to test on new Dell Optiplex 745 system.
Edit: Also works on Dell 745 system.

I left the cat file in, even though I read somewhere it should be taken out. Anybody wants to use/improve the custom DP - go right ahead.
