    Troubleshoot Icon on Laptop in Devices & Printers after new W7 install


    Hi,

    I recently did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit on my HP Pavilion dv4-1114nr Notebook. Previous OS was Windows Vista.

    The Install went well but i am having a problem:

    My Laptop is showing in the Devices and Printers folder with a yellow troubleshoot triangle with exclamation mark (see first picture titled capture)

    When i tried to resolve through the normal steps i keep getting and error (see picture titled capture 2)

    Can someone tell me how i can resolve this issue ?

    Thanks

    Chobbs

    Yea, i had some Chipset issues when i first installed it. The Hard Drive was showing up as a removable device. I fixed this by editing some stuff in the register and now that is fixed.

    Here are my laptop specs:
