  • "Other devices" yellow question marks

    In my quest to have sound on my computer, I noticed that everything on my "Other devices" tab in "Device Manager" has the yellow question mark next to them. I have a "Biometric coprocessor" "Network controller" "Controller of Bus SM" and a "Unknown device" tab listed here. Should I be concerned by these? And, if so, is this another driver issue, as if the sound was? Thank you for your time and this is my specifics.

  • In Device Manager, OTHER DEVICES has yellow question mark

    I always have problems with sudden black screens with auto restart.  It has been suggested that I get a new video driver, so I went into Device Manager, and since there is no list for video devices, I looked in the other devices section (which has PCI Simple Communications Controller, SM Bus controller, video controller, and video controller - compatible VGA) there is a yellow question mark next to each one.  I opened each of them and read, "Unknown manufacturer", and "the drivers for this device are not installed (Code 28) ' how to find who is the manufacturer and model and the version?

    It might be true that it doesn't work with Windows 7, I never said it would work with Windows 7 (it's the XP forum, don't forget!) but there may be something similar.  Since WIndows 7 is so wunnerfool, they just left that have a completely since there must be no need for this.

    99% of the things on which I work is some flavor of Windows Server, XP or Citrix and haven't seen nobody wants to even consider moving their campus everything to Windows 7 and I do not see happening any time soon!  It is not in their plans at all.

    I support a handful of populous (just a few) who have systems that require Windows 7 for some features and other things though, but they are just itty bitty compared to the basic XP installed.

    Device Manager displays a list of all devices that are installed on a Windows XP computer. When you view device information in Device Manager, you may see a device listed as unknown device next to a yellow question mark. It can be difficult to determine the cause of this unknown device, because there is little evidence that it generates.
     
    This article explains possible reasons that an unknown device may appear in Device Manager.

  • 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

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

  • Why the arrows converted to question marks?

    I've created a chart in Excel that contains several arrows. When I create a PDF file, all the arrows that are converted into question marks. Why? How can I fix?

    I use Adobe Acrobat 5.0, Adobe Reader X, Windows XP on a Dell Vostro 1510. In addition, the arrows were created in Excel by clicking on "Insert", then "symbol" with the Ariel font selected.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    I write to the list where others might have a clue. However, it may be that the differences are related to the fact that to create a PDF with AA5 on this Windows machine, I must print to file and then use Distiller. You are able to print directly to the printer. You could try the copy of file, and then open the file in Distiller to see if you get the same result. I just printed directly as PDF on AA5 of Open office and got the same result, so I don't know what you have different. Here are the screenshots:

    ---------------------

    There are two different printers (I deleted the PDFWriter to my AA5 installations. I just make an impression to the Acrobat Distiller and PDF Writer for AA4 printer. The PDF writer gave results similar to yours (actually Acrobat PDFWriter 5.0) and the printer AD worked well. It was long since I have dealt with this issue, I had forgotten the problems. The line at the bottom is not use PDF Writer, but use the Acrobat Distiller printer. The problems that you are experiencing is one of the many reasons why Adobe PDF Writer with AA6 distribution quit. AA5, it was only available for a custom installation. Embed fonts, has been one of the major problems with PDF Writer.

    Recommendation: Print on the Acrobat Distiller printer and ignore in the future the PDFWriter. Go to start > printers and right click the ad to reach Printer preferences. You may need to go to a second layer of general tab menu, but you should be able to find the settings tab. Then select print settings by default so that all fonts are embedded. This should solve your problem. Sorry it took so long to remember about PDFWriter.
