Dell Vostro 1400, Core2Duo. Installed Windows 7 64 bit a year and a half ago. For those not familiar, the Vostro is not entirely compatible with 64 bit, so the drivers are a little hit and miss.

Computer runs slow sometimes, has since the install. I don't think I've ever seen the yellow triangles before, but I may have never looked at the device manager ... the computer is a secondary machine in the house.

My question is, do these indicate a performance problem or can I ignore them and assume the computer is working as best it can?

please check out this webpage. it may help you to get started: Device Manager - yellow exclamation point

The yellow icons showing an exclamation point can indicate missing or improper drivers. The system does not seem to recognizing your hardware. Hope this gets you started.

Hi ... Try the Chipset Driver from the Dell Website .... Your System is quite old may be difficult getting Drivers for Windows 7 ...

Also it would be a good idea to run Windows Updates ...


Your Chipset is Intel GM965 Express Chipset ...

I definately agree with Maxie. Try that first but it won't hurt you to read the info from the link I posted either.

Intel and Dell all say that I have the most recent drivers. Windows Update already updated.

Sooo... I'm guessing driver incompatibility with 64 bit. Unsolvable?

If so, would installing a 32-bit version make a difference in user experience? I'd like to experiment but I don't have one just sitting around.

Also try this page at Dell support system. There may be some information or diagnostic tests that you can access from this page.

I don't believe I can help any further on this issue. I wish you good luck

Yes it might be a good idea if you used a 32 Bit OS ...
