All devices with yellow? need drivers. Google for VIA 4 in 1 drivers and see
they will fix. What devices do you have that don't have drivers?

You should be able to d/l the latest NIC driver from
Realtek's site.

If you don't "need" a function that's missing, don't sweat
the exclaimation mark, though you might try deleting it.
Windows may label something as "PCI" when it's not a
physical PCI card simply because it lacks the terminology.
Might be audio or USB or ??? Look over the board's spec
sheet to see if anything listed isn't showing in Device
manager.

As for the errors, run memtest86, probably memory errors or
maybe CPU overheating... are the two more common causes
though if it's memory you may then need to reinstall Windows
entirely to resolve it. Check power voltages and fans too.
