SYMPTOMS
After you install Windows 95, Windows 95 may detect devices that are disabled in the computer's CMOS settings. These devices are displayed in Device Manager with an exclamation point in a yellow circle, with the following status:

  This device is not present, not working properly, or does not have all the drivers installed. See your hardware documentation (Code 10.)

CAUSE
When Windows 95 detects a device that has been disabled in the computer's CMOS settings, the appropriate driver is loaded but the device is disabled. Any devices attached to the disabled device are not displayed in the device tree.

RESOLUTION
To enable the device in Windows 95, first enable it in the computer's CMOS settings, and then restart Windows 95. For information about enabling devices in your computer's CMOS settings, please consult your computer documentation.

MORE INFORMATION
When Windows 95 detects the hardware in your computer, it scans memory at specific I/O addresses to find devices. Windows 95 does not check CMOS settings to determine whether a device is disabled.
