Symptoms

After you install a Windows Vista Service Pack on a computer that is running Windows Vista, a hardware device does not work correctly. Additionally, if you open Device Manager, you might see an exclamation point next to the name of the hardware device.

Resolution

The device driver might not be installed or it might not be installed correctly. Follow these steps to determine whether Device Manager can find the device and to install or reinstall the device driver as necessary:

Step 1: Determine whether the device driver is found in Device Manager

1. Click Start, type Device Manager in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.

2. Click Continue. The Device Manager dialog box is displayed.
   If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

3. In the list of device types, click the type of device, and then locate the specific device that is not functioning.

   • If an exclamation point appears next to the name of the device that is not functioning, Device Manager cannot find the device driver. Go to step 3, 'Use Windows Update to find a device driver.'

   • If no exclamation point appears next to the name of the device that is not functioning correctly, go to step 2, 'Uninstall and reinstall the device drivers.'

4. Close Device Manager.

Step 2: Uninstall and reinstall the device drivers

If no exclamation point appears next to the name of the device and the device does not function correctly, manually uninstall and reinstall the device drivers. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, type Device Manager in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.

2. Click Continue. The Device Manager dialog box is displayed.
   If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

3. In the list of device types, click the kind of device, and then locate the specific device that is not functioning.

4. Right-click the device, and then click Properties.

5. Click the Driver tab.

6. Click Uninstall.

7. Click OK.

8. In the Device Manager dialog box, click the Action menu, and then click Scan for hardware changes.

   • You may receive a message that states that Windows has to install driver software for your unknown device. If you receive this message, click Locate and install driver software (recommended).

   • You may also receive a message that states that a hardware device is being installed and that the uninstalled device is now present in Device Manager.

   Note If you do not receive either message or the hardware device is not installed, go to step 3, 'Use Windows Update to find a device driver.'
