    I was trying to troubleshoot my device manager on my sz450 since my stamina speed button stopped working and my sound/audio no longer works. I noticed there is a warning also next to the intel device driver in the system manager that reads:

    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.

    Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

    Anybody know what this means or how to fix it?

    it sounds like another device on your system is conflicting with it..

    Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot to see where the conflict is. I do not see anywhere in device manager that tells me which item the conflict is with.
