Code 10: device cannot start Network Adapters

Hello,
I need help, my Media Player is not working right. I keep getting this message; code 10: device cannot start Network Adapters. Please help, I tried to reinstall Windows Media Player 11, I even deleted the one on my laptop it kept saying it was still there. I went in to the Device Managers and to Network Adapters, there is one that shows it is not working properly, Toredo tunneling.
Please, Please help I need to download a document tonight.

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.

R61: Intel 82566MC Gigabit Network Device Cannot Start (Code 10)

Hi
I purchased a Western Digital 7200 rpm 320 GB hard drive (the WD3200BJKT) a few days ago to be installed in my ThinkPad R61 (model 773215A). After making a fresh install of Windows XP SP3 and all the drivers, everything seemed to work fine except for my ethernet device, which is an Intel 82566MC Gigabit Network Connection. I obtained the following error code: "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". The ethernet device only functioned once, which was right after I installed its driver after the fresh install of Windows XP. However as soon as I rebooted, I received the above mentioned error code. By the way, the device was working fine before I changed my hard drive.
I have tried everything described in troubleshooting guides available online, including disabling and enabling the ethernet device, uninstalling and reinstalling the ethernet device and updating the drivers, but to no avail. The only way I could make it function again is by switching off my notebook, unplugging and replugging the power adapter and finally switching the notebook on again. If I were to do a restart, or switch my notebook off and on without unplugging the power adapter, the ethernet device would not function.
I have a feeling that it might be the bios. I am currently using the latest bios (version 2.26), and I noticed that this bios was 'supposed' to fix "The "New Hardware Found" message for Intel Gigabit Ethernet may appear." Looks like some problems with the Intel Gigabit Ethernet still exist. However I have tried flashing several older versions of the bios, but the problem still persists. Appreciate any help/suggestions I could get. Thanks.

Hello
I bought my R61 beginning of 2008, and since then I had this problem - only with the LAN device, NOT with WLAN - 3 times. It did never have something to do with reinstalling Windows or installing a new device like a HD, it just happend, usually after configuering new network properties (with the tool Access Connections).
The first time when I experienced this, I tried to reinstall the NIC driver, but that didn't help.
Every time, after 2 or 3 days, the problem simply disapeard.
I have on the same laptop, on a second HD partition, a Debian Linux installed. This time, my NIC started its "time-out" after configuering new network properties on Linux, and it does not work anymore on neither Linux nor Windows (2 days so far).
It's really annoying, and because it seems the OS has no influence, I think it is Lenovo's job to fix this problem.
I belive it's - like mhafiz says - a BIOS problem, or some hardware issue, so please: Lenovo, it's your turn!
I always bought Thinkpad Laptops until now, and I think they are in quality high above any other brand, and I really hope this will continue.
Chris
PS: I hope your (and also mine, like it did before) NICs will just resume operating after a while...

Compaq CQ60-216DX
Hi,I've upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 Home and now the CD drive is missing and displays an error code"10" DEVICE CANNOT START, under Device Manager.
Looked for updated drivers on HP Support,there are none for CD drive.

Used Restore to revert back 2 months and still no progress. Removed recently installed software from HP(C5280) printer as well.
Immediately after upgrade,CD drive worked fine. Even loaded music into iTunes.
I'm at a loss. Any ideas?
Thanks

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!

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.

"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:
http://www.pchell.com/hardware/usbcode10.shtml
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.

"This device cannot start. (Code 10)" 6th gen nano ?

Hello!
I recently purchased a used ipod nano 6th gen. It was working great by itself but it won't connect to my laptop. Here's the short story:
Ipod worked fine out of the box. Is not recognized by Windows7. Installed and reinstalled the driver, no effect. iPod does not charge from the laptop of from the power outlet. I have itunes version 11.2.2.3 but the ipod has not been able to connect or be recognized by itunes yet.
Here's the Long story w/ the details:
1. Before I connected it to anything with the cable, I was able to use all of the features and played the radio it worked fine.
2. It began to give the low battery warning.
3. I plugged it into my laptop with the usb cable for the first time.
4. Windows (7) gave the error window pop-up: "USB Device not Recognized."
5. If I click on that error pop-up window the next window says "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"
6. If I open Device Manager, it shows one of the USB ports name is "Unknown Device". If I leave the nano plugged into the USB, the device manger window appears to update every 10s or so and alternates between displaying the port name "Unknown Device"and not displaying the port named "Unknown Device".
7. If I click on device properties of the "Unknown Device" USB port from the Device manager screen, I see that the error also alternates between "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)" and "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)"
8. When attached to the USB port the nano screen alternates between 3 displays, 1 - "low battery", 2 - the apple logo, 3 - the home menu, which is operational. The battery meter symbol shows 0 power and does not indicate charging.
9. If I unplug the nano it does not turn on with the sleep/wake button, I think due to depleting the battery.
10. If I plug the nano into the wall charger, the screen alternates between the home menu which is operational and the apple logo. The battery symbol shows 0 power and does not indicate charging.
11. I followed some troubleshooting steps, on the "Device Properties" window I see the following information:
Driver Provider: Microsoft; Driver Date: 6/21/2006; Driver Version: 6.1.7601.18328;
12. If I select "Driver Details" button, a window appears that says"No Driver files are required or have been loaded for this device"
13. I found trouble shooting steps on the apple website to install the driver, which I followed. I navigated to the folder with the driver as recommended from the apple website and selected it. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers "usbaapl", then selected "Apple iPod USB Driver" from the list to install.
14. I get the error window titled "Update Driver Warning" which explains installing the driver is not recommended as Windows cannot verify it is compatible with my hardware, but I proceed with "yes".
15. Next window titled "Update Driver Software - Apple Modbile Device USB Driver" shows the error "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device; Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it; Apple iPod USB Driver; This device cannot start. (Code 10)" and it suggests to download a new driver.
16. Next, I uninstalled the driver and followed all of those steps and it indicated success, also chose delete driver software option.
17. If I plug in the nano at this point I get the indication windows is trying to install driver software, and then the same error occurs as when I first plugged it in "USB Device not Recognized." and I can go through all of the steps again.
18. The Driver details button gives the following info:
Provider: Apple, Inc.; File Version: 1,64,0,0; file names usbaapl.sys & usbaaplrc.dll; driver version 6.0.9999.65.
19. Now the device manager window alternates between showing and not showing the USB port named "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver".
20. If I look under Devices and Printers, it shows a generic icon with the title "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" with a yellow exclamation mark and the status shows "Needs troubleshooting"!
Can anyone help me I will give you any detail and info you want!
thanks!

IPad2 on Windows 7 : MTP USB Device = This device cannot start. (Code 10)

Hi Guys,
I want to access to the Internal Storage of my iPad 2 on Windows 7.
But I have an error with the MTP USB Device => This device cannot start. (Code 10)
So I cannot see my iPad in Windows Explorer.
I tried many actions from Forums :
update the driver to the "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" located in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers"
delete the upper and lower filters in REGEDIT : {36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}.
stop and restart the service "Apple Mobile Device"
But as soon as I connect again the iPad there is the same error message after Installing device driver software => "Device driver software was not successfully installed" : MTP USB Device : Fail
Is there someone who get the solution ?
Thank you for you help
Stephane

I have a similar problem, only mine is Code 31 for the MTP USB Driver. The Apple driver loads fine, and I'm able to sync with iTunes, but I can't connect to the device as a drive and copy the photos off of it.
I've tried nearly everything at this point that has been suggested in other threads, and nothing has seemed to work.

Pavilion dv9700 DVD/CD ROM stopped working: Code 10 (This device cannot start.)

I have a HP Pavilion dv9700 running Windows 7 where the DV)D/CD ROM drive fails to be detected. I can still get it to open and close. The device manager gives an error: Code 10 (This device cannot start). I read somewhere that iTunes upgrades can cause DVD problems in HPs, and I did upgrade iTunes a couple of days ago. I did upgrade the BIOS a few moments ago, but it didn't help. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Thank you for the responses! Sorry it took me so long to implement--I wanted to back everything up first before messing with the registry. Following the instructions to delete lines in the registry AND uninstalling iTunes allowed for the DVD/CD ROM to pop up with an exclamation mark in my Device Manager. Updating the driver did not help as the computer said the driver was up-to-date. Mysteriously, when I rebooted, the DVD/CD ROM disappeared from the device manager again. I forgot to mention in the initial post that the DVD/CD ROM light blinks steadily at about two blinks/second. Any other ideas? I am wondering if this is a hardware failure now.

I have now tried with the preload without any luck. Or that is not completly true, I could put a 1 gB Kingston card in the computer and it would pop up. But it also freezed the computer from time to time.
If I took the card again after a freeze, the computer went back to normal.
But out of 6 SD cards, that was the only one I managed to get working.
I tried all kind of sizes:
64 mb (no luck)
512 mb (no luck)
1 gb (kinda worked - sometimes freeze)
2 gb (no luck)
4 gb (no luck)
8 gb (no luck)
So now I have called Lenovo support and they will come and fix it for me.

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

Bootcamp bluetooth driver issue ("This device cannot start. (Code 10)")

Hi everyone,
I have a problem (re)pairing my Apple mighty mouse with Windows 7 under Bootcamp.
Initially I had my mouse working through updating the driver to the one from Apple as is described on various forums.
After rebooting my laptop the mouse didn’t connect anymore. So I tried to repeat updating the driver to the apple one. But this time it didn’t work.
I then updated the Bootcamp drivers from the OSX installation disc.
Then, when I checked the hardware, it showed:
Apple Built-in Bluetooth
Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator
Under these setting my computer still doesn’t detect my mouse under windows.
So I checked to see if I could update my drivers again. This time there were four instead of two:
Apple Broadcom Built-in Bluetooth version 3.1.0.1 [23-11-2009]
Apple Broadcom Built-in Bluetooth version 4.0.0.1 [27-4-2011]
Apple Built-in Bluetooth
Apple Built-in BluetoothDFU
First there were only the first two. Of these two, the first one worked for the first time I paired my mouse.
When I change the driver to any of the three other than the Apple Built-in Bluetooth, it says:
“Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device” with this error:
“This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
After trying this, the initially set driver (Apple Built-in Bluetooth) gives the same error. Resulting in having to reinstall all the drivers all over again.
Anyone encountered the same problem or at least the error of “This device cannot start. (Code 10)"?
Thanks.

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.
