    I'm getting this weird microwave looking thing in my menu bar. It looks like a door, and the selection panel. Ill try to upload a pic. tomorrow. Anyone know what the heck it is?? it came when I installed iatkos
    EDIT: it says in gray: unknown vendor [next line] base system peripheral [next line in black] power off card. this repeats a total of 4 time. What does this mean

    its for the memory card slots
    put a card in both slots and youll have 6 of the repeats.
    no way as of yet to get them working...

    do you have any memory cards in the slots?
    i have iatkos, and dont have the icon unless i put a card in like i just did. once i put it in the icon stays on the top...
    just looked in system profiler and 6 devices called expresscard are found under pci devices..
    ill restart then update my post with whether the icon is still there...
    (ps im only up late because im a student and i just got in from my uni's halloween party, and im installing win7 on my desktop)
    EDIT:
    Just restarted and the icon is gone...
    definitely no cards in either slot?
    if not then i have no idea how to solve the prob, barring a reinstall..
    but to me thats a waste jsut to get rid of some random icon...
