This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)

Got the above error when i insert a firewire card with via chipset. I have update the firewire driver by picking a list of device driver from my computer and though it prompt me to restart but yet it still shows the yellow exclamation mark and next i update it through online, same thing it prompt me to restart which i did but sad to say it shows the yellow exclamation again
When i check under properties>general tab, it says the following Quote
This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)
If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.
You need to restart your computer before the changes you made to this device will take effect.
Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.
As far as i know the irq in bios setup is all set as auto and the total there's 4 pci slot and only 1 that is using, so how can it be resources being used up??
Fyi i'm using Msi P35 neo3 mobo with vista ultimate sp1

Under device manager> VIA OCHI Compliant IEEE 1394 host controller> right click it and choose update driver follow by choosing the option of search automatically for updated software (window would search your computer and the internet for the lastest driver software for your device)
Once done i reboot and next bingo.... the yellow exclamation was no longer there, infact it was quite wierd when i try updating online, as the very first time it doesn't work but wouldn't know why the second time it does

1. You have placed problem in wrong forum, or use different Windows operating system
2. Double check your resources, namely in Disk manager. What is free space on HDD?

This Device cannot find enough free resources that it can use (error 12)

I have been using Hyper-V to test parts of my deployments in sccm 2012 r2 for some time now, and yesterday, they would not complete. Turns out the error in the topic is what is causing it. See below for a screenshot in devmgmt of the error causing the machine
to be unable to access network resources.
of the solutions tried so far, I have rebooted, and uninstalled/reinstalled the Hyper-V role.

Hi, this is a VM on a hyper-v host, so I doubt this is hardware related.
FB
Its not converted no, it's a bare metal deployment, but you may be right in that some drivers may have snuck in from the driver step in config manager. I will try that. Thank you.
FB
OK so what now??? Is it a fresh installed VM on Hyper-V? If yes how other hardware drivers can be installed there? Also the first entry "Batteries" should not be there in a fresh installed Hyper-V VM.

Satellite L300-19Y: GPU issue - device cannot find enough free resoursces

I have an error message on my Display Adaper stating the following,
"The device cannot find enough free resoursces that it can use (code12).
If you want to this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on the system."
It is a Satellite L300-19Y with Mobile intel 4 series Graphics card. I have updated to the latest driver.
The screen is very fuzzy at present.
Please help with a solution if possible.

Hi
I found your other thread:

You tried to install a ATI driver on this notebook.
I have no idea if this would affect the OS functionality but it seems that you get a error message while installing the Intel driver so maybe you have muddled up the OS installing some wrong drivers
Did you use the driver from Toshiba driver page?
If not do that!
You should firstly uninstall the driver in device manager and then should reboot the notebook.
After new reboot you should check if you could install the driver once again

ThinkPad X230 - Test Instrument: "This device cannot find free resources that it can use (Code12)"

I am use an ExpressCard (http://www.home.agilent.com/en/pd-2053520-pn-M9045B/pcie-expresscard-adapter) to connect Lenovo notebook with instrument chassis (http://www.home.agilent.com/en/pd-1886666-pn-M9018A/18-slot-pxie-chassis).
I found that Lenovo notebook failed to enumerate with the instruments with error "This device cannot find free resources that it can use (Code12)" in device manager.
This never happened in Lenovo model ThinkPad X220 and models before that.
Other affected model: ThinkPad T430, T540p which all failed to enumerate.
Note: All notebooks are upgraded to latest BIOS.

You are going to need to move that card to another slot. That is definitely your problem. I had mine in the PCI-E X8 slot which then knocked my video card down to x8 as well. So this definitely takes up resources. Also you can use something like EVEREST of Sisoft Sandra and those will tell you what else is sharing with that card. You could have a difficult network card that is fighting with it as well. You may think that its onboard and that of course it would not fight, but it does.

Is there any free image that i can use in my flyer

Hi all,
i want to ask a question, if i want to use image on apple product such as Macbook pro, iPad image in my flyer, is there any free image that i can use?
please advice..
Thanks in Advance

I doubt anyone here will have a definitive answer as no one here is an Apple Employee, and you are asking a legal question
In general terms, a designer needing artwork/images from a company will contact that company's public relations section and ask for the images and permissions to reprint them. This usually requires an attribution line under the image, such as, "Photo © Apple Inc. Used with permission."

Hi Mike, make sure the card has Mac ROM, or is a PC card with Mac ROMs flashed to it...
G5 PCIe options are listed here:

There is plenty of space over 260gb

Are you absolutely sure there's 20GB in use, and not that it has 20GB free? If you click on the hard drive icon on your desktop and click cmd-i to Get Info, what is the available space?

Game Port Error: This device cannot start. (Code

I recently did a PC rebuild and have a fresh install of XP SP2. When trying to play with a gamepad that worked just fine before the reinstall of XP, it shows the game port as not working.
Sure enough, Device Manager shows a problem with the game port.
I uninstalled the game port and reinstalled it to no avail.
This is the error the properties of the game port has listed:
This device cannot start. (Code 0)
Anyone have any idea how to fix this - I saw several posts in this forum from some time ago with no answers.
Thanks in advance!

What kind of reinmstall did you perform? If you used the recovery media, then this will be pretty simple. Boot to the recovewry media again and this time select the Reinstall drivers and applications option. Find the audio driver on the list of available drivers, put a tick in the box to its left and then click on the install button in the lower right hand corner of the window. The driver will be installed. Your list will be different than the following one, but this is only an example.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Manu,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having so many issues with getting your Expresscard 8360 working on your Lenovo. I recommend that we first look into Device Manager in more details. You mentioned that there were question marks (?) on certain devices. This usually means that there are devices on your PC that do not have any associated hardware drivers. For the Expresscard 8360, the drivers should be native to the Windows system, so I am unsure if those "?" do belong to this portion of the system. We can test this out by removing the expresscard 8360 and see if the "?" are still present. These "?" can be from the internals of the PC or modules that you've attached. If you've restored your operating system recently, it could be from the peripherals of your computer in which case you will need to find and install the chipset drivers. This can also be from the modules that you in your chassis, assuming that you haven't installed the necessary drivers for them, in which case you can find them on the Driver CD you have.
The exclamation mark (!) in Device Manager usually signifies a problem with getting the hardware started/operational. From your earlier posts I believe that the "!" is related to the Error Code 10 that you are receiving. Assuming that the correct power sequence was performed, chassis then PC, this is representative of a BIOS compatibility issue. Essentially this is occuring because the BIOS of the motherboard is not correctly allocating the necessary resources to all the devices as it is supposed to. Since you already have the latest BIOS, I would recommend that you try using the MXI Express Compatibility Software, here ni.com/beta. This is something that National Instruments created in order to correct for the incorrect resource allocation of the PC. It is not a beta program, it is only on the site so that we can manage it more easily. I have seen Lenovo T60 laptops work with this software installed.
Let me know if this helps
Thanks
