Default XP Device manager items w/ yellow exclamation marks

I guess none worth pursuing further! (:

So what conflicts are there if the system started up fine and works fine?

Further update for the Parallel Device conflict:
I uninstalled the printer and reinstalled it, also updated the driver. No
change. (the driver was the most recent before the uninstall too) Same as
before. I started in Safe Mode to see if the conflicts went away but they
did
not.

I tried uninstalling the PartMgr (the other device conflict) in Device
Manager but all that did was cause my system to crash during reboot- so I
chose the "last configuration that worked before error" option and the
system
started up fine and works fine. Later I read that removing non-plug & play
devices can cause system problems- I shouldn't have been messing around
with
something I wasn't sure of. (: So back to square one investigating these
curious conflicts...
