I had to do a system restore because when I boot up it stays in safe
mode. I have access to e mail and the net but I have the teal green
background and cannot get out of safe mode.
I have found a Unichrome graphics device that has an exclamation mark
on it. The error indicates that the device" cannot find enough free
resources that it can use. (Code 12). If you want to use the device
you
will have to disable one of the other devices on this system."
Hmm. Why can't it find enough resources and exactly which other
devices
do I have to disable?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

martinc-
While in Device Manager your graphic Devices properties, click on
the Resources
tab.
Click on the top resource type in the Resource Types pane and look in
the Conflicting
Device List pane below it.
Either click on the resource type or use the down arrow key to check
the next one(s).
Whatever the device is conflicting with will be shown with it's name
in the
resource conflict window.

Brian:
Thanks a bunch for the links. I had already tried some of them several
times. I have just spent about 2 hours trying the others. No luck.
Since you can get to Safe Mode > Device Manager, remove any/all devices listed in Display (Not Monitor), close out and reboot. Windows will redetect/reinstall the graphic drivers for your device or the Standard VGA drivers. If it installs the standard vga drivers you will need the disk for the drivers or download the latest updated drivers from the manufacturers support site to reinstall them. Read the file(s) on the site or the ones included with the download and follow them per the manufacturers suggested installation instruction.
