All network drivers error 31 Windows Vista 32 bit

Dear,
we have a desktop here with Vista 32 running on it.
It's an Acer *sigh* Extensa E464, so yes it's old.
The problem: all the network adapters in device manager are showing the yellow explenation mark with error code 31.
The strange thing is, I do not know if it's related, that every network adapter (about 25-30, yes, I know, wtf) has an extra network adapter with Panda something... (can't add image before my account is verified :/ )
So I google'd that and came on Panda security [profanity removed].. It might be related, I'm not sure.
I can't uninstall the drivers, I can't disable the drivers, I have rebooted, I've done system restore, that did nothing to the problem, and Acer doesn't provide any driver information about this computer anymore (feel free to look) so I'm not sure what driver
I could try to install..
In my humble proffesional opinion, this is something software related, maybe something about the panda software thing that's getting in the way, perhaps malware.
Any help/ideas are welcome!
Thanks in Advance,
Maarten De Vos

You need to update the network driver.
Visit the website of the manufacturer to download and install the latest compatible driver.

  • Error: Windows Vista failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause

    PLEASE HELP!
    My Lenovo SL500 is not working at all - I get error: "Windows Vista failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause"
    I tried the following on my Lenovo:
    Windows repair menu = "windows cannot be repaired"
    Lenovo Rescue and Repair 
    Rescued my files from Hard-drive (copied to external hdd)
    Restore System = Failed
    Diagnose hardware = HDD passes all tests
    Don't know what else to do with = Boot from another device ? Access BIOS?
    Because I do not have the windows vista install disks
    I purchased and downloaded the recovery disks from neosmart.net
    The neosmart windows vista recovery disks DO NOT WORK = Error is "Unable to find any valid Windows partitions on this computer".
    The Hard-drive exists because I was able to back-up files from HD through (Lenovo Rescue & Recovery Rescue files). So there is a hard-drive.
    I don't know what to do next? 
    Last resort is to Factory Restore via either the Lenovo R&R or Windows Vista Recovery Disks (neosmart)?
    Will I still have windows? 
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi, Josemne
    Yes, if you can restore the system through Rescue & Recovery, then you will still have WIndows on your machine, but all your files will be deleted from the hard drive. Luckily, you have already saved those files elsewhere. I would recommend trying to restore the system and see if that works.
    Best,

  • Drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit on Satellite L300-1AM

    When I can get drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit? Or I need to intall 32-bit drivers on my 64-bit Vista operating system?
    Please links ;)

    [Toshiba - Download Drivers|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp]
    In the Drivers Search Page (the link above) select these filters:
    _Product type:_ +Notebook+
    _Family:_ +Satellite+
    _Product Series:_ +Satellite A Series+ (don't try the L series if you want to find anything useful)
    _Operating System:_ +Windows Vista 64 Bit+
    _Country:_ +World Wide+ (you have to select this in order to get rid of those multiple country options available for the modem)
    _Language:_ +English+ (obviously)
    Don't modify any other filter. The results will be about 100 (maybe more, but the site is set to show up to 100 results).
    Advices:
    1. Download the latest versions only (there's no point in downloading multiple versions of the same driver, yet they will be shown in the search results area)
    2. Download what's specific to your laptop only (network - RealTek, both wired and wireless; chipset and graphics - Intel; modem - Toshiba; webcam - Chicony; there's no point in downloading anything from otehr vendors - except maybe the touchpad, but Windows can handle it properly without aditional drivers)
    3. Don't download any BIOS or Firmware file; they might not be for your notebook, and installing the wrong ones is a sure path to screwing up your notebook (and losing the warranty); if you need them upgraded, go to the download page for your specific model, Windows XP or Windows Vista 32 Bit drivers (since they are OS independent anyway)
    Toshiba utilities (DVD Player, ConfigFree, etc.) should be OK too (again, download the latest version only).
    BTW, I own 2 Toshiba notebooks (L300-1AM and L300-1AN; quite similar, the differences are in HDD and CPU only) and I had the same problem: no 64-bit drivers (and the same "support"). Quite strange the idea that Toshiba is testing these 64-bit drivers before releasing them (according to a previous post), since the same drivers, for the very same chipsets - but installed on other models - are available. Windows Vista 64-bit is out on the market for nearly 2 years now, the production of these models has already been stopped (and I assume they have not been produced during one night only :) ), yet they had no time to test the drivers... High-class support from Toshiba!

  • Adobe plugin 11.5 plugin it crashes all time on my window vista pc

    adobe plugin it crashes all time on my window vista pc

    Could you check something for me please? (This isn't going to be a cure in itself, but can give us a heads up on possible causes of the problem.)
    Create a new user account on the PC with full admistrative rights. Log out of your usual account and log into the new one. (Don't use fast user switching to move between accounts.)
    Try to launch Safari in the new user account. Does it open in there, or do you get the same trouble as in the usual user account?

  • X-Fi Extreme Music || when installing drivers for windows vista 32 bits, error mess

    I get an error message when I install windows vista 32bits drivers for my X-Fi Extreme Music... it says, error while installing, can't find a compatible product on your system, verify if it has been corectly installed ... BUT INSTALLING I JUST WHAT I WANNA DO ! WTF?
    all other software for hardware management can see that my sound card is connected to my mother board, so i don't understand why the driver installer can't see it too and install the drivers ...
    Could someone give me a tip to help me to install my drivers please?
    i got windows vista 32bits build 6000 , X-Fi Extreme Music, 2048 RAM, Pentium4 3.6ghz 250 go hdd space ...
    I'm waiting for some cool answers, thanks ! ...

    You are wrong. The 2.3 are for extreme music, you are thinking about extreme audio. Creative have really made a blunder with these names, not strange many are having problems. Propably trying to install extreme audio drivers on extreme music, and the other way around!?
    Check that you have the right drivers, if you do. Try the trick where you unpack the driver exe file, so you get all the files from the installer on to a folder of youre choosing. Then use the "Creative Update Utility" popup to install/force the drivers to install. If you dont know what im talking about, search the forums, its been explained many times here.

  • Drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit

    Hi all -
    I want to install Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my iMac intel 2.4GHz with 2GB of RAM. I read around that I will have to manually install the drivers for apple specific hardware. Does that include the apple keyboard (aluminum) and the mighty mouse? If so, where do I get the drivers from?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Steafan!
    I followed the instructions on the site you gave me and its successfully installed the ATI driver. However, using system profiler on my mac, it says my card is ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro, but Vista now lists it as ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT. Is there any problems? On the other hand, the keyboard is giving me enough functionality, but some things still don't work, namely the number pad and eject key.
    I also read on the net somewhere that the fans will not work? How can I verify that my fans are working?
    Thanks,
    Matt

  • IPod will not install drivers on Windows Vista

    Hello,
    I am running Windows Vista Ultimate on 2 computers. One computer connects to my 60GB iPod video just fine, while the other looks for drivers and then fails to find any. I get a window that pops up saying "Insert the disc that came with your iPod" after Windows searches for drivers. Because of this, the iPod does not appear in iTunes, nor does it appear in My Computer. I have tried performing a soft reset on the iPod (Menu/Center combo) which did not work. I have also tried reinstalling iTunes to no avail. This is a brand new Windows installation and I just can't figure out why it won't work. iTunes seems to work just fine in all other respects.
    I have also followed the steps in this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136
    Thanks,

    I found these steps here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1286482&SiteID=1&pageid=4
    Scroll down to the quote from WickedMX.
    Basically, C:\Windows\System32\Driverstore\Repository and look for a folder that starts with usbstor. You will probably have two different versions. Open the folder that is the newest version and then copy the files usbstor.inf and usbstor.PNF. Copy them to the C:\Windows\INF folder. Try installing your device(s) again and it should work like a charm!

    Can you be specific as to what drivers are not installing? An issue that can be had when doing PNPEnum is that child devices of something that does not have a driver installed are not visible to the PNPEnum. A way to get around that is you can force the
    injection of drivers that are not getting installed. Something like you can add a second Inject Driver step but, have it be a selection profile of drivers that always get missed because they are children.

    Please Help Me And Advised me ..
    How TO install Amd Graphis Drivers In 32-Bitt Windows 8 System???

    Hi:
    See if this works.  If it doesn't then you will need to install the supported operating system (W8.1 64 bit).
    Download and run the W8.1 graphics driver from your model's support page...Close out of any error windows.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloa​dIndex?softwareitem=ob-135683-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
    Go to the device manager and click to expand the Display Adapters category.  Click on the Standard VGA Adapter.  Click on the Driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.
    Select the Browse my computer for driver software method and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.
    That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp67327.  Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and see if the driver installs that way.  Then reboot.

  • Moving Library - Permission Error (Windows Vista)

    I'm trying to move my iTunes media to an external hard drive, but I keep getting a Permission error when I try to consolidate my library. I've searched for ways to fix the permissions, but the only answers I've found are for Mac and I have Windows Vista.
    Here's what I did on iTunes:
    Edit>Preferences>Advanced
    I clicked "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" and "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library"
    Then next to "iTunes Media Folder Location" I hit Change and selected my external hard drive F: and the folder within it titled "iTunes Media Folder 2" and hit OK.
    Then I hit:
    File>Library>Organize Library>Consolidate Files
    But then I receive this permissions error message:
    "Copying failed because you don't have permission to change your iTunes Media Folder or a folder within it."
    I tried going into my Music folder (not on iTunes, on my actual computer) to try and see what's wrong:
    Start>Music>(Right click) iTunes folder>Properties>Security
    And I have full control to edit/read/write, etc. so I have no idea what's going on.
    Help, please?

    To be more specific,
    all the security type on bin directory property - on control, read, write, all have been granted.
    I click on the bin directory, it is showing read only, then I uncheck it, and click apply to all subdirectories and confirm.
    Then I check the bin directory property again, it is still showing read only.
    thanks again

    If you've installed the correct version of iTunes, you have all the drivers there are. The iPhone does not support bluetooth file transfer or sync. The only thing for which you can use Bluetooth with a PC is tethering.
