"Device Cannot Start - Code 10" - Windows Vista Error, w/ 2nd Gen. Nano

I'm having trouble with my Nano and Windows Vista. The computer is recognizing the iPod just fine and seeing all of my songs, but nothing will play and the diamond bar does not move. I can't hear previews online either.
Under device manager, a yellow "!" shows up for the iPod, and it says "Device Cannot Start - Code 10" when I check. All of my drivers and updates are current as of today. So is iTunes. Any thoughts?
It worked before, but now it's not.

This is a reasonably common error on a PC when there is a problem with either a USB device, your USB cables or hardware, or the system drivers.
In a case where, as you say, the device works properly with other computers, the problem is more likely to be with the hardware or drivers on the computer you're trying to connect to.
See this site for some hints:

I found it via a web search; I don't have any connection to that site.
The good news is that your iPhone is probably fine.

    I got all drivers up to date including the BIOS, everything is working fine (the sound works, microphone works...) but this error is kind of annoying to my eyes so if anyone know how to fix it please help.
    I tried to uninstall this and let windows update install it again => not worked, same problem.
    I tried to re-install the Realtek driver (uninstall - restart machine - install - restart machine) => same problem
    And another probelm which has not been solved yet is the Bluetooth icon keep blinking on battery mode (windows 7), you can see more in this thread

    What kind of reinmstall did you perform?  If you used the recovery media, then this will be pretty simple. Boot to the recovewry media again and this time select the Reinstall drivers and applications option. Find the audio driver on the list of available drivers, put a tick in the box to its left and then click on the install button in the lower right hand corner of the window. The driver will be installed.  Your list will be different than the following one, but this is only an example. 

  • Zen stone, vista and "device cannot start (Code 10) message&qu

    Today i got a Zen Stone gb mp3 for use with a local library's program, Overdri've Media which allows users to download e-books to their computer and then transfer the files to?a MP3-the Zen. The first time I used it it worked fine, no problem. Then I tried another download transfer later . When I attempted to load the Zen by plugging it into my USB port (I tried 3 different ports), the computer would not find?the device. This happened even though a screen appeared showing that a portable dri've had connected and the files could be played on WMP or other players.
    In Device Mgr., the Zen dri've has a yellow triangular sign showing an ! in it. Further exploration in Device Mgr. gives this message:
    ? Device Cannot Start (Code 0)
    ? Could not load Driver software.
    ? Windows was able to sucessfully install device driver software,however the dirver software encountered a problem when it tried? to run. Problem code 0.
    ?The drivers are up to date as is the firmware. I have run through the troubleshooting pages and the forum. I am using Vista 32-bit with 2 g memory. The Windows Media Player is v , which is required by the book/ library software, Overdri've Media.
    Incidentally, the Zen works fine on my wife's XP laptop. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    GRe: Zen 8G This device cannot start code 0 and firmware update problem?Hello Tbg99,
    Welcome to Creative forums!
    Try booting the player in the recovery mode.
    . While the ZEN is off, press and hold down the play/pause button.
    2. While holding down the play/push button, push the reset button slowly using a paper clip/pin. You should feel the "click" sound when press it.
    3. Slide the On/Off switch towards the power button and hold it down until the recovery boot screen appears.
    Choose Clean Up then Reboot. If problem still persists, you may need to format the ZEN but take note that formatting will delete the contents of the device. To format the ZEN, boot the ZEN in the recovery mode again and choose Format this time.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Manu,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are having so many issues with getting your Expresscard 8360 working on your Lenovo. I recommend that we first look into Device Manager in more details. You mentioned that there were question marks (?) on certain devices. This usually means that there are devices on your PC that do not have any associated hardware drivers. For the Expresscard 8360, the drivers should be native to the Windows system, so I am unsure if those "?" do belong to this portion of the system. We can test this out by removing the expresscard 8360 and see if the "?" are still present. These "?" can be from the internals of the PC or modules that you've attached. If you've restored your operating system recently, it could be from the peripherals of your computer in which case you will need to find and install the chipset drivers. This can also be from the modules that you in your chassis, assuming that you haven't installed the necessary drivers for them, in which case you can find them on the Driver CD you have.
    The exclamation mark (!) in Device Manager usually signifies a problem with getting the hardware started/operational. From your earlier posts I believe that the "!" is related to the Error Code 10 that you are receiving. Assuming that the correct power sequence was performed, chassis then PC, this is representative of a BIOS compatibility issue. Essentially this is occuring because the BIOS of the motherboard is not correctly allocating the necessary resources to all the devices as it is supposed to. Since you already have the latest BIOS, I would recommend that you try using the MXI Express Compatibility Software, here ni.com/beta. This is something that National Instruments created in order to correct for the incorrect resource allocation of the PC. It is not a beta program, it is only on the site so that we can manage it more easily. I have seen Lenovo T60 laptops work with this software installed.
    Let me know if this helps

  • Intel 82579V network controller "This device cannot start" (code 10) error"

    I've just finished installing a Z77A-GD55 motherboard and had a problem where the Intel 82579V network controller wouldn't start after a cold boot. Device manager would show “This device cannot start" (code 10) error”.
    After a reboot it would work every time. During the time it didn't work the adapter was incorrectly shown in device manager as 82579LM. There's an older thread about this issue but the fix described there were of no help with my problem.
    After a lot of searching I found Intel has provided a fix for people having this issue after sleep mode so I gave it a try and it seems to work for my issue too, so far anyway.
    So if anyone else is having this problem with the same Intel network controller I suggest giving this try.
    Go to the Intel Download Center and search for 82579V. Select the first result entitled "NVM Update Utility for Intel® 82579V Gigabit Ethernet PHY Network Connection" and follow the instructions. Good Luck!

    Thanks for the information.

    Ok update last night instead of clear cmos i removed bios battery to see if that could help, it didnt, so i then installed vista 64 just to check it, and i get same error.
    So back on win7 i installed drivers as before and it lets me from disk but when it comes to driver update it says no craeti've products detected or something very simlar. i get same erro if i try and install the beta driver.
    Squall thanks for the suggestion but that also didnt help, i do remember though i had been benhmarking the afternoon it died?and had increased my ioh voltage to .25v which isnt much.
    I thought at first id damaged one of my pcie slots but i checked my gpus in all 7 pcie slots and they work fine.
    Looking at the net i see that there are lots of other people running into this error and not just with sound card but usb devices and such, so it gives me hope that the cards not bad.
    Any more suuggestions would be good,
    Other things i've tried is remove the device from device manager and retry, along with uninstall device.

  • Satellite Pro A10: New Atheros/Askey WLan card but 'This device cannot start' code 10

    Hi there,
    I have a Satellite Pro A10 and have purchased an internal mini pci wireless adapter. The following information is displayed on my card:
    Askey WLL3070-D4(MOW)
    Atheros AR5BRB-43
    I installed the card, hooked up the ariel's and turned the laptop on...the switch at the front now lights up and windows xp finds the new ethernet adaptor. My problem is this...
    No matter what driver i install (and ive tried every Askey/Atheros etc driver from the first 20+ pages of yahoo/google) the card installs fine but then in device manager has a yellow ! next to it and says This device cannot start (code 10)
    I'm really stumped. I have some more ram coming in a few days at which point i shall be installng Vista which im hoping sorts my problems out but does anyone have any ideas?
    I've yet to find a driver which specifically refers to the AR5BRB or the model number WLL3070-D4.
    Does anyone have a location for a driver etc?
    thank you

  • Intel 9965 Device cannot start (Code 10) fix

    I just wanted to report my experience upgrading from Vista Basic to XP Pro on my new T61.
    The laptop came with Vista, I upgraded to XP Professional Service Pack 3.  Everything worked with the Lenovo downloadable drivers except the sound card, which would not install the correct drivers, and the Intel 4965 Wifi card, which would accept the drivers but would always give me a "Device cannot start (Code 10)" error and the wifi light wouldn't go off and on with the wireless switch on the front of the laptop.
    The sound card would not install the correct drivers because the 888111 SP2 patch would not patch SP3, even though this particular UAA driver problem has not been fixed in SP3.  I got around this by downloading kb888111.exe, opening the file (the .exe) with WinRAR, and extracting all the files to a temporary directory.  Running the file directly won't work.  From here you can either do a direct .inf driver install, or point the device manager to the temp dir while doing a device manager driver update.
    The Wifi problem was much more elusive, but ended up being easier to fix.  A simple BIOS update was all it needed.
    I used the update found at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-67988
    I am also using the latest driver from Intel instead of Lenovo's, which is a tad old.  Either will work - I don't think this was a driver problem at all.

    Quote
    Great news, I did more research on the standard PCI slot and decided to dig deeper into the bios. I found a setting for the PCI frequency setting. It was set to auto so I switched it to manual and selected the lower of the 2 options thinking since this card was designed a decade ago it might not register properly at the higher frequency (I think the 2 options were 37Mhz and 41Mhz, don't quote me on the numbers). On reboot much to my surprise I saw device installed sucesssfully.
    Outstanding troubleshooting work!

  • Zen 8G This device cannot start code 10 and firmware update problem

    I have read the threads in the forums on the same problem that I am having. It seems that there are few solutions for this and the ones that have been posted I have tried. Basically the problem is this, I made the silly mistake of trying to update the firmware on my Zen 8G since it was listed as a critical update. I downloaded the firmware but it failed and took me to the recovery screen. Instead of working with this, again silly me, I tried to use the Creative recovery tool. This downloaded the firmwary and started rebooting the player. At this point it just hung. I left it on for about 3 hours and nothing happened and it wouldn't turn off so I hit the reset button on the player. Now when I connect it to the computer it recognizes it as a creative zen but if I try to download the firmware the software says the player is not connected when it is. When I check the device driver, even though it shows it as a creative zen it says "This device cannot start code 0"? I have the latest Microsoft device driver loaded and it still doesn't work.
    I have tried this on two different computers, one using XP and the other using Vista. I get the same problem with each. It appears to me that the problem is not really with the device driver but somehow with the firmware. However, I am not an expert at this stuff.
    If anyone could please help I would appreciate it. This was a gift for my wife for the Christmas of 2007 so it is just out of warranty and the service people won't help.

    GRe: Zen 8G This device cannot start code 0 and firmware update problem?Hello Tbg99,

  • Network Adapters - This device cannot start (Code 10)

    Hello,
    I have a W510. It has worked OK for about 4 months. Started getting VERY SLOW - especially on start up.
    I ran the Uniblue Powersuite to try to speed things up. Didn't seem to help.
    I believe I have all the latest updates for both Lenovo and Windows 7 x64 Professional.
    My 2 USB ports located on the side of the laptop are suddenly not working. The device manager shows the following devices all with "This device cannot start (Code 10):
    - Renesas Electronics USB 3.0 Root Hub
    - Microsoft ISATAP Adapter
    - Microsoft Teredo Tunneling Adapter
    - Microsoft 6to4 Adapter
    It would not allow me to reinstall so I just deleted all 4 of these.
    When I did the reboot, they are all still missing, but the USB ports are now working (there is now a NEC Electronics USB Root Hub). I guess doing the job?
    But, I'm concerned about the other network adapters being missing.
    Additionally, today I plugged in my Apple iPod and now have the same (Code 10) on this device.
    Please help me. It looks like all the Microsoft and Apple drivers are using the same date and version file - it this strange?
    They all show 6/21/2006 version 6.1.7600.16385 - so what's up with this?
    Thank you so much!

    hey DTTODGG,
    since you have uninstalled the drivers under device manager, were you able to use the "update drivers" ?
    Anyway, is your system running on Win7 .. if it is, I believe that Win7 should have installed some generic drivers for you.
    Also could you check under the properties of your Network Adapter, is the device enabled ? If it isn't, enable it.

  • High Definition Audio Device - Device Cannot Start (Code 10)

    I am having a problem isolating an indication in the Device Manager with the High Definition Audio Device. I have Intel Graphics with this machine. The OS is W10 Pro. I loaded the audio driver for Windows 7 64 bit, but that did not make any difference. The Device Manager indicates that "This device cannot start (Code 10)" Driver Date 7/9/2015 / Version - 10.0.10240.16384 / Microsoft Driver Details Tab - Value = High Definition Audio Device From the Events Tab - (Information)Device HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8086&DEV_2804&SUBSYS_80860101&REV_1000\4&36c4990c&0&0301 requires further installation.     Any guidance is greatly appreciated. 

    Hi  The problem HD audio device you are seeing is the Intel HDMI audio device that needs a driver. I looked around for a W10 driver for the hardware ID you posted, and can't find one. You don't need that device unless you want/need audio through the display port. The only suggestion I can offer would be to try the W7 Intel graphics driver from your notebook's support and driver page, but install it this way...so that you just target the problem audio device... Download, but don't run this graphics driver... http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=4095873&swItemId=ob_127914_1&swEnvOid=4059 Download and install this free file utility.  64 bit is the second file listed. http://www.7-zip.org/ After you install 7-zip, right click on the graphics driver file you downloaded, and select 7-zip from the list of items. Have 7-Zip Extract to: and let it extract the driver to the folder name (sp64360). Go to the device manager and click on the problem Intel HD audio device needing the driver. Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver. Select the Browse my computer for driver software option, and browse to the driver folder 7-Zip created. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked, and see if the driver installs that way. Then reboot. If you explore the driver folder 7-zip created, and open the DisplayAudio folder, you will find the setup information file that has the hardware ID you posted as supported by the driver. Whether or not this audio driver will work on W10, that I do not know. But if you want to give that a try, that would be a way to do it without messing with the actual graphics driver.  

  • Audigy 2 value "This device cannot start (code 10) after installation and no so

    after installing this card I get a "This device cannot start (Code 0)" message in device manager. I disabled the onboard sound in the bios, installed using the CD and rebooted the computer. But still no sound. When using this method on another computer the installation went smoothly. Since it was still not installing on this computer I tried different PCI slots (keeping in mind that it is not suppose to be installed in the PCI slot adjacent to the AGP slot). I've tried everything I can think of and I still get a "This device cannot start (Code 0)" message under the driver in device manager and no sound whatsoever. Please help because if I can't get it to work I'll have to return it. Thank you.

    I did manage to get mine working finally, it was pretty stupid of me....
    Anyway I made sure the creative disk was in the dri've and then when my comptuer said "found new hardware" i pointed to the dri've and made it install the driver. Well that did work and it did say it installed the hardware, but it still didnt work. I then took it into my brother computer did it the exact same way and it worked fine. I finnaly brought it back to my PC and installed it one more time. it did the same exact thing. But this time i opened up the disk and installed the driver direct from the disk menu, after reboot it worked like a charm. Thought that was a tad strange, but it worked, maybe if someone makes the same mistake as me this will help.
    Card is good, not much of a step up from my li've 5., but that card is going in a friends PC so its no biggie.
