M550 SSD device won't start code 10

I have a Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13, with Windows 8.1 as the OS. I installed a 256GB M550 SSD into the secondary MSATA port. For 1.5 days, the new SSD worked fine. After booting up this evening, Device Manager was reporting the following error. This device cannot start. (Code 10)
The request is not supported.Note that my BIOS is able to detect the SSD. However, rebooting and disabling/uninstalling the device and then enabling the device from Device Manager have not allowed the device to work. I have also booted with a USB drive and updated the firmware to the latest. Nothing seems to work. Does this mean the SSD is dead, after less than 2 days of operation?

So, I returned the SSD and got a replacement, and the problem occurred again. Problems only show up AFTER I enable bitlocker and AFTER I reboot. Every boot thereafter, the device shows up with the yellow exclamation in the Device Manager indicating a Code 10 error. The SSD also remains non-functioninig, even if I move it to a different laptop. Another interesting symptom that I observed is that after enabling bitlocker, I don't see the prompt for how I want to encrypt the drive. Every other device gets that user-prompt/query, except for with the M550.

HOW TO FIX HD AUDIO/UNKNOWN DEVICE/DEVICE WON'T START LENOVO H320 Win 7 64-bit

Fix for - HD Audio devices won't start or you can't load correct driver. Lenovo H320 - Win 7 64-bit I-3 processor. 5 series/3400 chipset
Here is a working procedure to fix the problem when you install windows 7 64-bit and can't get the correct drivers installed for the HD Audio devices 1)Realtek AC97 HD Audio device id = HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0662&SUBSYS_17AA3604&REV_1001
and 2)Intel HD Audio device id = HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8086&DEV_2804&SUBSYS_80860101&REV_1000 Regards >>> Sucromatic
For an IBM LENOVO 320 with Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium Version download these drivers to a directory in a second partition to prevent this nightmare from happenning in the future.
1)AC 97 high def audio version
Realtek HDA 2.67found on http://wikidrivers.com/wiki/Main_Page or at www.realtek.comon right of screen on homepage and
2) Intel HD GRAPHIC and HD Audio version
Intel GMA 15.22.52.2559 (Vista/7) 14.46.8.5387 (XP)
found on
http://wikidrivers.com/wiki/Main_Page.
Select your OS and and whether 32 or 64 bit. I recommend the .exe version as it works very smoothly. Uninstall HD AUDIO DEVICE or whatever it is called maybe "unknown device" with ac97 device ID "HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0662&SUBSYS_17AA3604&REV_1001." Afterwards install AC 97 HD Audio Driver.
After install reboot and wait till computer completely starts.
Now uninstall Intel HD Graphics or your graphics device. When you get the uninstall box open, select delete the driver software for this device and then OK. When prompted to reboot select NO and Immediately start the install of the Intel GMA driver. Which installs both the Graphics Adapter and the Intel HD Audio. Reboot when finished and all HD Audio devices will be functional (hopefully). You will now have these versions installed. As shown in device manager/device properties/Driver tab
Now uninstall Realtek AC97 driver you first installed to delete annoying Red Lexmark/realtek icon in Notification area (If your computer shows it after reboot) and windows driver update will install a microsoft driver (shown below)that works without the stupid lexmark red icon. See below. You will now have these versions installed. As shown in device manager/device properties/Driver tab

Voila. Now go to intel and run a driver update scan and it will likely correctly identify your Intel pieces and offer downloads for any that are not current. Good Luck!

Device failed to start - Code 10 - Intel Wireless Card on NB550D

Hi everyone,
It's just a normal Toshiba NB550D netbook
The only thing that I change is the Wireless Card inside it: the original is a common Atheros half mini card. Recently I have the urge to use internet in 5 ghz (frequency).
Thus, I decide to replace the old one with the *half mini card Intel Wifi Link 5100 AGN*
It doesn't turn out so well. The driver is not recognised or more precisely the windows tries to install the driver but FAIL is reported. Device manager tool shows an "!" next to the network card and when I go the its properties at general tab: "*The device failed to start - Code 10*"
I tried many ways to uninstall the driver and reinstall again ; also tried to download drivers from toshiba website for intel network card.
Nothing works so far and yeah I just don't know what to do now.
The possibility that the intel card is broken or malfunctioned is eliminated because I checked that with another laptop already and it just worked like a charm.
Please help me solve this problem. I really need to use dual band (2.4 and 5 ghz) internet.
Appreciate any help!!

>The possibility that the intel card is broken or malfunctioned is eliminated because I checked that with another laptop already and it just worked like a charm
Regarding the error code 10:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943104/en-us
+The Code 10 error pertains mainly to hardware and device driver issues or to compatibility issues between hardware drivers and additional software that is installed in Windows.+
I dont think its Wlan card issue it could be a compatibility problem between the BIOS and the WLan card.
Not all devices are supported by BIOS.
But at the other hand the WLan card appears already in device manager and therefore I think there should not be a BIOS compatibility issue.
Did you check if chipset would handle the Wlan card properly?

After downloading itune to my dell computer (with windows vista), the DVD RW drive is disabled. The device status shows "device can not start (code 10)" Any suggestions? Thanks.

Device failed to start (Code 10)

Here's a mind bender for you.
Hope the collective consciousness can provide some insight.
The configuration:
TBird 1333
Epox 8k5a2+ (KT333)
512MB DDR
2x 40GB Maxtor HDD
several GF4 4200's
SB Live Player
DLink DFE 530-TX
400W power suppply
Windows XP Pro
The problem:
A seemingly random time after a clean Win-install, the Geforce4 driver will fail to start upon boot. Desktop will appear in 640x480 resolution 4 bit color, or, very rarely if I'm lucky, in 800x600x256.
In Device Manager the following error is displayed for the display adapter: "The device failed to start (code 10)". Translated, that means the driver could not start due to the hardware being absent.
Before this failure everything would work just fine, system is 100% stable. There is no traceable event that seems to trigger this problem.
After this failure there is no way to fix the system except to format and re-install or restore from a Ghost image taken before the trouble started. Well, there was one occasion where I was fed up with it one day, turned it off and when I powered up the next day it was working again (yes, I have a witness). Windows System Restore occasionally works too, mostly does not.
Things I have tried:
Two different motherboards, one KT333, one KT133A, same problem.
All versions of BIOS of both boards (even modified ones)
APIC and PIC IRQ modes.
All unneeded devices (serial ports etc.) disabled
Vga card has it's own IRQ, not shared
Different versions of Detonator drivers
Different VIA 4 in 1 drivers
With and without XP SP1
This happened with 3 different 4200's now, VisionTek, Leadtek, and now MSI. Other (older) VGA card in same system, no problem.
Some other thoughts:
The fact that a restore from backup CD fixes the problem is a good indication that this is a software malfunction.
Does anybody have any idea what could possibly be causing this?
This has been going on for over a month now and I'm fed up. If I can't resolve this soon I will have to switch over to the Dark Side, as much as I would hate to.

try uninstalling all drivers under device manager even the hidden ones, and make sure its uninstalled in add/remove programs
then restart
let windows find the card, restart
then install ur Det drivers
rushing the computer on this one causes all sorts of problems, i did the same thing

Satellite 1905-S303 PCI wireless card won't start code 10

I've put a broadcom BCM94306PM PCI wireless card in my laptop. The laptop is equipped with antenae however one is damaged and can't be connected, these cards can work with one side only and I've even read somewhere that they can work over a short range with no antenae. My problem is device manager states that the device cannot start code 10. I have a clean install of XP Pro with SP1 (not from the original restore disc). With this in mind I suspect that there must be some Toshiba utility or driver missing to allow the card to work. Any help appreciated.

I've downloaded drivers that others have stated are for this wireless card but I'm not able to find drivers that work. I've heard speak of a Toshiba Wireless LAN manager type of utility but I can't find any other reference to this on Toshiba site. This is not an original Toshiba wireless card, but I thought you could just plug any mini PCI device in and install drivers to suit. Is this not the case? The person that I purchased the card from says that some manufacturers prevent use of third party PCI devices. I find this unlikely. Could this card really be broken?

ITunes 9.2 Apple Mobile Device won't start.

a few days ago i updated my itunes to the latest version (9.2) but since then its impossible to sync my iPod touch 2g. every time i start itunes and connect the ipod to the pc, a message pops up saying that Apple Mobile Device hasn't started.
i searched in forums for a solution, i tried starting it manually but then a message pops up saying that it started but then stopped again because some services close immediately when they have nothing to do.
i tried reinstalling everything.. didn't work, i tried repairing AMD from control panel also, same problem. always that message that it hasn't started and in services it says that it closed again.
i don't know what to do... please help me!

I am experiencing exactly the same issue too. Vista-64 bit O/S. Uninstalled-reinstalled iTunes 9.2 numerous times. Still getting the same error in the event logs:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\AppleSyncMapiInterfaceHelper_x64.exe". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.CRT,processorArchitecture="amd64",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e 3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.4053" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.
Another error that seems to be related is:
Faulting application AppleMobileDeviceService.exe, version 17.58.0.21, time stamp 0x4c0ed767, faulting module RPCRT4.dll, version 6.0.6002.18024, time stamp 0x49f05beb, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00017a46, process id 0x184c, application start time 0x01cb2ae2765b428f.
As a result "Apple Mobile Device" can't start and I can't connect the iPad.

Device won't start, even after charging (WT8-B-102)

I recently bought a Toshiba WT8-B-102 and i have some problems with it.
First of all i couldn't install the BIOS update for some reason, but that isn't a huge problem for the tablet works fine
but now i can't start it anymore. yesterday i had the same problem, left the Tab alone for a while, (on the charger) and after that it didn't start/boot. half an hour later i tried again (after taking it of the charger) and then it started, but today it won't start at all. Even if i charge it for some hours, then try it again, try to start it while being charged, etc. This is not good right?
I also don't see some led burning or any other sign when i attach it to the charger. Any ideas or help guys?
Thanks

A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

IPhone device unable to start (code 10) Windows XP

I just reformatted my hard drive and installed a clean copy of the most recent iTunes. I also updated XP through Windows update and have my USB 2.0 drivers installed. Everything else is running fine, including my other USB devices. My phone is recognized without issue on another computer too, so it's not the phone hardware.
I've disabled the windows firewall and apple services are started and running. I have not yet installed virus protection. USBAAPL.SYS is installed and being used as the phone driver, but there is still an exclamation point when it appears in device manager as an apple device, under USB. It makes three beeps, shows the exclamation point, and disappears within a minute or so.
I uninstalled the device using device manager and reinstalled it and it didn't help. I also reinstalled the driver using the windows driver utility, and chose the imaging device instead of the phone. It was able to view and copy images from the phone but the phone still did not appear in iTunes. I'm using iPhone software version 2.2.1, and the phone does not charge when connected although it's connected to a 2.0 USB port.
Any help would be appreciated, and I have already tried all of the basic troubleshooting recognition steps as listed in the iPhone windows recognition article, here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495
It's using the proper driver and recognized by the computer, but it gives me an error when I plug it in and under the driver details in device manager, it says unable to start device, error code 10. I'm also using the cord that came with the phone and there is no damage to it. It charges without issue from a wall outlet.

Hope this helps someone.
Steps to Resolve:
1. Removing all usb drives and re installing them did not work for me, though it did for a lot of others over the internet. So, first step try that. If it does not work, follow rest of the steps.
2. Remove all external devices. Remove all usb drivers - Device Manager, under USB tree, uninstall all nodes.
3. Reboot system. New devices will be detected. Don't plug-in anything external.
4. Upgrade intel chipset by downloading the right version from this link http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?ProductID=816&DwnldID=8178&lang =eng (if the link stops working, google for infinst_auto.exe)
5. Reboot (even if it seems not required)
6. Plug-in the external device

Video Capture won't start, code 10

I've bought a MS 8870 GeForce4 Ti4200 128Mb. I've updatet new drivers 40.72 and flashed the bios. Still I got the message:
nVidia WDM Video Capture (universal) FAILED (code 10)
Can someone solve my problem.

This is speculation, I know this is what seemed like happened to me. But it was late..
Thx Man .... It works ... =)
Hi, I have the same problems as described in this thread. Berkul, can you provide the specific steps you took to remove the drivers and then re install. I would like to try this myself but would like to follow in the path of someone who has already sucessfully achieved this.

INTEL Turbo Booster Device won't start on dv8t 1000 laptop

HP Analysis and device manager show this problem. Driver tests up to date.
What does this meaan and how do I correct it?

This is Turbo Boost Driver installing incorrect. The driver installation should have failed with Error 'This Computer does not meet the minimum requirement for installing this software'...
The TurboBoost Driver is required for Intel i5 and i7 Series Processors with Integrated Graphics on them...This Driver helps in 'TurboBoost' Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) Frequancy....Intel's Core i7-720QM, i7-740QM,i7-820QM and i7-840QM Processors, do not have Integrated Graphics on them...So this driver is not required... And The Processor TurboBoost feature works with Yellow Bang in device manager. Check below screenshot....So you can safely ignore the Yellow Bang for above stated processors.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
Make it easier for other people to find solutions, by marking my answer with 'Accept as Solution', if it solves your problem.

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.

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,
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.

"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.
