• Minor problem with the New Installation of Windows 7 on my Inspiron E1705/9400 - two entries for "Base system device" under "Other devices" with yellow exclamation point

  Hello

  First of all, let me tell you about my system.   It is of a laptop Inspiron E1705/9400 with the Core 2 Duo T7400 processor clocked at 2.16 GHZ.   It has 2 GB of RAM and a hard drive on the Hitachi Travelstar nine 500 GB (7200 RPM).   It also has the GeForce Go 7900 GS video card.    Previously, it had Windows XP Professional (32 bit) and worked well.   But, I have three computers in my home and Home Office and would they work better together on my wired home network, so I'm upgrading all three to Windows 7.   My two desktops (a Dimension XPS 420 and the other Dimension XPS 430) seem like they will be no problem to upgrade to Windows 7.   But, this laptop was not on the list of Dell Windows 7 compatibility.   However, the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor that I have downloaded and run seemed to say that it was OK to do a clean install of Windows 7 32-bit and he had only a few minor issues, where it says search the drivers updated from the manufacturer.   Initially, the laptop came with a 100 GB hard drive.   For my use, which becomes very small, so I decided to get the exact same 7200 RPM drive 500 GB size.   This will allow me to do a clean install of the 32 bit Windows 7 OS on the new hard drive and not have to wipe the old disk to do so.   I can just keep the old HD and paste it back whenever I need to get something out of it.

  So, here's my minor problem.   After the transfer of some elements off the coast of the old hard drive, I installed the new 500 GB drive and installed a cleaning of the 32-bit version of Windows 7.    I'm happy to announce that I have not had virtually no problems with installation and everything seems to work fine.   He seems a little more zippy than before and I have not met so far that doesn't seem to work.   I went through most of features and almost everything is superb.   But there is a minor problem, showing in Device Manager.   At least, I think it's a minor problem, but maybe someone can give me feedback to know if she is or not.

  In the Device Manager list, there is a category called "other devices" now and the icon shows a little white circle with an exclamation mark.    When you expand this category, you see two identical entries that say "Base system device" and the icon has a yellow circle with an exclamation mark inside.     I know from experience that it is not a good thing to see items in the device manager that have a yellow circle with an exclamation point.   I clicked on both of them and neither one really tells you what the device is, or who did what is site you would go to a driver.    On the general tab, it has the following information:

  -Device type Other devices

  Reference of the manufacturer- Unknown

                       Location     -         Bus PCI 3, device 1, function 3

  
  

  Under device status, it says the following:

                         The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

  There is no driver selected for the item or a set of device information

  To find a driver for this device, click Update driver.

  Each of the entries seem to be almost the same thing... but not exactly.   The other has the location

  list PCI Bus 3, device 1, function 2... instead of function 1.   This seems to be the only difference.

  I tried the button to update the driver, but that doesn't seem to work.   No matter if you say it looks like your

  computer or to look for a new driver from the internet, it does not find anything.     As I said at the beginning,

  the system seems to work very well... but, given that I don't know what this device is or does, I might be missing something.

  He drives me crazy just have these yellow circles with exclamation point hanging out in my device manager.

  I could really use some help here.    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bryan Ray (Richmond, WILL)

  BTW, I just downloaded and installed the driver pack from this ftp location and it worked, even for Windows 8.1 - 64 bit.

  Thanks Steve!

• In devices and printers, I have an icon for a laptop with a yellow exclamation point. I have a desktop computer and remove this icon of the laptop.

  A laptop once was connected to my desktop via USB cable PC; It belonged to me.  The owner wants to access its database of the company, but in vain.

  Now, in devices and printers, I have a laptop icon that is not one of my devices, but the Device Manager lists in "Other devices" with a (USB) universal serial bus controller, which is also included in the icon of the computer laptop properties under the material.  The yellow exclamation point is for troubleshooting.  The problem is: I do not own a laptop device.

  I want to remove the icon of the laptop and its inscriptions, including the (USB) universal serial bus controller.  Both are marked by a yellow exclamation point, but, of course, they do not work because they do not exist.  But this icon of the laptop has name my PC on it.

  My desktop PC should not be listed in devices and printers, does it?

  Hello.

  Open devices and printers right click on the device - remove the instrument.

  My CD drive on my Dell 2400 appears disabled (on Admin Managemnt yellow exclamation point) as this is my plugin dvd recordr/cd player recorder. How can I fix? Thank you

  Locate your CD drive integrated in the device list manager.

  Do a right click on it, it should appear a window with "Disable"... 'Enable '.

  Click Activate.

  It is a possibility, the other is...

  The fact that you are also using EXTERNAL units could be the 'reason' why one integrated disabled to start with.

  The USB in the BIOS setting must be wrong... to do this.

  In addition, the "HALT ON...» ' Command, in the BIOS, will not. (It is possible that the "Halt" command is... ON "ALL ERRORS").

  Assign to this... "WITHOUT ERRORS".

  This should cure the problem of USB connection (for external use) disable your "built-in" CD player

• Code 31, Microsoft IASATAP adapter doesn't work does not correctly, the yellow exclamation point, no internet

  I have Emachines E620, Microsoft Vista and service pack 1. My PC cannot connect to the internet and stop a yellow exclamation point error message. My internet providers technical support, I lost my IP address and cannot be recovered. My PC shows that my card Microsoft ISATAP does not work, but when we try to update, it says I have the updated version of the adapter.

  I tried everything the system fixed but did not work. Can't try bugs online because I can not connect to internet. My research on the Internet, maybe I need service pack 2. Can someone tell me if this could work? If so, what is the way least costly to achieve? What does it mean that my PC is undesirable?

  Hello

  I think there could be a problem with your WLan router.
  I recommend to reset the router and try again

  If this is not enough, clear all settings of encryption like encryption, password encryption, mac address filtering, etc. and try to connect again to open WLan.
  But this just for testing purposes

  If the connection would be functions, you must configure the router once more.

• Network of the island so no internet access remove a yellow exclamation point in the network icon in the taskbar.

  Hi, I have 10 windows 7 Enterprise workstations connected to a Windows 2008 domain and there is no internet connectivity (this is normal) but each workstation network icon displays an exclamation point yellow because she had not any internet connection. Isn't there anyway other than hide the icon which I don't want to get the yellow exclamation point to appear.

  Thanks Simon.

  I finally found the answer. If you are running Windows server 2008 R2 edition, then you can find this policy in the strategy of Group Editor and it will be effective for your Windows 7 machines. If this is not the case, as I am on Windows server 2008 standard and then, is not an option within the Server Group Policy Editor must therefore be as a change in local policy on the workstations.

  It is found on the local computer by running gpedit.msc and looking: -.

  Local computer policy,

  Administrative templates,

  Network,

  Network connections,

  Does not display the network icon "local access only".

  Select this option enabled.

  Closing of session and immediately and this will make the yellow exclamation point icon disapear.

• T61 - no sound - Audio on High Definition Audio Bus with yellow exclamation point device

  Hello

  I don't know when it started, but suddenly my T61 has no audio/HiFi. I checked the Device Manager and saw the device on High Definition Audio Bus Audio with question mark (large) yellow with yellow exclamation superimposed on it. On Lenovo's Support site, I downloaded the 7ka114ww.exe, hoping to remedy this device to uninstall it reboot and re - install using the downloaded exe, but anything will do.

  Any suggestion or help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance

  PS. I also see the basic pop up system device after a reboot and ask to be installed? This pop-up had been there for some time before the sound/sound has been lost.

  Hi and welcome to the forum!

  What operating system do you use?

  When you say that you have installed the driver, do you also go to C:/drivers /... to run the .exe steup? The second Setup program must be run to install the driver correctly.

  Base system device is the card reader, to find the driver for your OS here:- http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/migr-67853.html
