What does a red "X" mark over a device icon indicate in Device Manager?
1. The device does not currently have power.
2. The device driver has a resource conflict with another device.
3. >>The device is disabled.
4. The device is not on the HCL.
Explanation : Device Manager enables you to perform tasks such as identifying installed ports, updating device drivers, and changing I/O settings.
If Device Manager displays a red "X" over the icon for a device, then the device has been disabled.
If Device Manager displays an exclamation point inside of a yellow circle over the icon for the device, then there is a problem with the device or driver, usually because of a resource conflict.
Other Device Manager symbols include a blue I on a white background, which indicates that automatic settings were not used and resources have been manually assigned. It does not indicate a problem.
