Conflicts Visible in Device Manager But Devices Work Correctly

ID: Q191312


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows 95


SYMPTOMS

When you view your computer's system devices or video adapter in Device Manager, you may see a red X through a device's icon, or an exclamation point in a yellow circle next to the device's icon. Note that this may occur even if all of your computer's devices are working correctly.


CAUSE

This issue can occur if you are using an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) video adapter. Because Windows 95 was developed prior to AGP video technology, AGP video adapters may cause resource conflicts to appear in Device Manager.


MORE INFORMATION

These types of resource conflicts do not normally affect your computer's functionality.
