That is a stock graphic. It doesn't tell us anything.
Honestly, if you cannot tell whether you have a Kindle Fire or Kindle Fire 2, you probably shouldn't be messing with it in the first place.
[edit:] In the link I posted earlier, you will find information on how to tell which Kindle Fire you have, and whether or not you're in the right place. Pay attention. That is, unless you just want to throw your money away.

[Q] kindle fire 2nd gen

NOOB question:::Is the development for kindle fire 1st & 2nd gen the same, i.e do the same roms work on both or does one have to use a separate rom
Please do not use anything that is intended for the first gen device you will end up with a fancy paperweight. No roms or root methods should be used they are only intended for first gen devices.
Thnks for the info..m glad i didnt do anything stupid

That's what this whole site is about. Obviously you're invalidating your warranty if you do this, but the whole point is to have a better UI than what Amazon provides.
One comes to this site in hopes of finding out that there really is hope to making their tablet/phone into a supertablet/superphone.
So it's fine to flash stuff to your kindles peoples. Don't listen to this guy.

In all fairness, it's not our responsibility to make sure any particular user fully understands the risks of attempting to modify their device...as a matter of fact, it's expected that they do. If someone doesn't have the knowledge and/or the common sense to do the appropriate amount of research before taking on such an endeavor, then they deserve any adverse outcome that happens as a result.

Where can I download the kindle fire drivers?

I know the kfu has where you can install the drivers but where can I download it to install it manually?

If you r connecting it to your pc then I suggest you to try connecting it to back USB port on CPU

They'll help in the sense that they say “what did you do? Root it? OK, well no more warranty for you, no returns, no help, and don't ask for any more support from us!" So if that is what you mean by help, they will most definitely help you!
Just in case my sarcasm wasn't clear, DON'T contact Amazon support to help you, just do what you did, and ask here where this is a nice community of devs and support.
And greezal, another option that I think should work is getting the drivers through the android SDK, but I don't know. Did previous comments work?
What sort of problem are you having?
You also might want to read this thread, and see if this is similar to what you're experiencing.

I was having trouble with the usb mass storage, but I had to uninstall the driver and reinstall and the rom I flashed threw me for a loop. but I figured it out now. Thank for all the help with all my problems and questions.
ROOT does not mean void warranty for good, just mean void warranty till you unroot or use cwm to return kindle to stock rom

Noob 2 4um, so I can't do anything cool with 2nd gen KDF HD 8.9?

Thanks for taking a look at my question. Yep im a noob and thoroughly enjoyed the noob welcome video. Though i feel prepaired for any backlash this question may bring as a result of my noobery, I did search the forums and really just want to confirm what i believe to be is the grim truth.
I read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2228532
so because I have a second generation kindle I can't root it and remove the adds or do any cool stuff? Is that about the long and short of it?
kindle fire hd 8.9
system version 8.4.6
I think you should be able to root it and if not you will be able to in the coming weeks, they rooted the hdx and I thought the second generation 7"HD model, so I would assume it should be available for the 8.9" model very shortly.

Do you have an HD or HDX? If it's the HD with 8.4.6 then it's rootable and flash able now. Did it to my wife's 8.9 a few weeks ago.

i have a fire hd 8.9 , bu im just worried about bricking it. I figured safer and more simply methods may come out for a noob lik me
Took me a while and a lot of reading of the threads here before I took the plunge. Better to wait until comfortable then taking the plunge when not ready and making a mistake.

I think yours is a second gen kindle fire, seeing otter2 and the big kindle fire logo. If it is, you're in the wrong forum, this is for the kindle fire first gen. And if it is, and you follow instructions from here, you will not be able to recover your fire. And even if it is a first gen, you need to post this in the Q&A Forum.
I put this in the q and a forum, also I belive it was the first gen, how can I or you tell? I can take more pics if needed
