    Device Manager, Yellow triangles, No error codes


    In another thread, I showed a screenshot of my Device Manager with yeoow triangles against the Display Adapter and the Storage Controllers:

    When I expand any of those items, there are no error codes and they all say 'This device is working properly.' I presume there is nothing to worry about but why are the warnings there?

    Your link does not show any yellow triangles at all.

    Does it matter? Not really. For example I have a SIM card slot in my laptop, if I don't install the QUALCOMM driver it doesn't work and I can't use mobile connections. Everything else works fine.

    What do you think is not working? Have a look on properties/events in device management and you should see something like USB\VID_05C6&PID_9205&MI_01\7&1ca556e1&0&0001

    The VID is what is interesting - you an either post it here or google it yourself to find the required driver.

    Everything is working fine. I just wondered why those symbols are there and they looked like yellow triangles to me. They are very small.
    Thanks anyway.
