| 135441 | 2003-05-03 23:03:00 | It is a registry prob. It's a registry protection problem with XP. It means XP is NOT giving the device permission to enter the data of that device into the registry. YOU have no other choice, BUT to go into the registry and give that device permission to install the driver/s for it. It will bring up the same error (data is invalid), even if you buy another card, exactly the same, or any other PCI card, no matter what kinda PCI card it is. To fix it, go to Start/run, and type regedit, then go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\PCI Look for the device (PCI card) that bring up the error (click on each entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\PCI and look to the right for the name of the device. When you find it, on the left hand side highlight the entry / right mouse button and permission. Tick full control, then OK. Then quit regedit, then reboot. The only thing is, you may have to do this with every PCI card u install. I had this prob as well. Until I reformatted, and it disappeared. |
