4. All of the system devices are shown, grouped by Type. Expand each group, verifying that no devices display a yellow bang (!) or a question mark (?). • A yellow bang (exclamation mark) indicates a hardware problem, a device driver problem, a missing .ini file, or a resource conflict with the flagged device. • A question mark indicates that Windows has received information that the flagged device is installed but cannot find it or recognize it. NOTE: A yellow bang might appear under Non-Plug and Play Drivers in the Windows Device Manager when hidden devices are enabled. The yellow bang appears only if the Show hidden devices option is enabled under the Non-Plug and Play Drivers in the Windows Device Manager. If no serial legacy device is found in the system, the OS generates a yellow bang for the Serial option. HP Integrity rx8620 and rx7620 servers do not have legacy serial devices, so this error always occurs. The bang does not indicate faulty hardware in this case. 5. If a device is flagged with a fault indicator (bang or question mark), insert the HP Smart Setup media in the server's drive and accept the End User Licensing Agreement. 6. Right-click the flagged device and select Update Driver Software from the pop-up menu. 7. In the Update Driver Software screen, click Browse my computer for driver software. 8. Browse to the system drive where the Smart Setup media is inserted and click Next. 9. If you see a warning dialog indicating the driver is not digitally signed, ignore it and click Next to continue. 10. When successful installation is indicated, click Finish.
