If you thought that after installing Windows Vista SP1 all of your Vista related problems would disappear, well you’d better think twice! As a matter of fact a lot of users are reporting an incredible quantity of issues and you could be the next one. ( I know that you are touching wood right now). Anyway, here is another Vista SP1 issue. After installing Vista SP1 you could experience one of these issues:
- A device driver won’t install and and and exclamation point appears next to the device driver in Device Manager.
- A device driver stops working normally despite it is installed correctly.
To fix these issues follow these tricks:
First Method
- Click Start
- Type Device Manager in the Searh Box and press Enter.
