767921 2009-04-24 00:23:00 Hey,

Recently one of our Philips wireless USB adapter 11g's has stopped working, under device manager it tells me 'the device cannot start - code 10'

The Pwr/act LED does not light up as usual but the computer recognises that it has been plugged in, but the internet doesn't work.

We have an identical adapter running on another computer and it's going fine.

Any ideas? - I've already tried uninstalling it, rebooting then re-installing it. I've also checked the firewalls etc to check that they are not blocking it's access.

Thanks

Code 10 refers to an IRQ conflict, another device on your system is conflicting with it.

767923 2009-04-24 01:54:00 The only hardware I can remember being used and changed was my video camera. I plugged it in hoping to get it to work (see my other threads :P) and changed some settings in the 1394 connection dialogue box...

Shame I don't remember what those settings originally were or I could try re-entering them to see if it fixed it

Thanks

767925 2009-04-24 05:57:00 Changing the 1394 properties probably wont achieve anything, as its for firewire. You dont have to touch it. It may stop working / stuff something else up tho, if you do change anything Speedy Gonzales (78)
767926 2009-04-24 08:10:00 If it still doesn't work you will probably have to contact the manfacturer to change the IRQ range settings in the bios
