Device Encryption Support Reasons for failed automatic device encryption: Un-allowed DMA capable
Looking through MSINFO32 I see the line:
Device Encryption Support Reasons for failed automatic device encryption: Un-allowed DMA capable bus/device(s) detected
What does it mean? My laptop C:\ drive is encrypted the whole thing. Does this mean I have a problem?
I have these lines too:

purplenate26,
It does not mean you have any issues with the hard drive. You can click the link to read more about the encryption.

Looks like the link you gave has been removed and other search results gives nothing of value. Why Windows shows this error and is it fixable? Can someone please tell us.
