Nforce Networking Controller... Code 10
I bought a F755US laptop sometime last month. I tried to connect to my home
network I get nothing... no activity lights, no message saying anything is unplugged, nothing. I check device manager and I have a yellow exclamation mark and says "The device cannot start. (Code 10)" Vista says the media is disconnected and to plug in the cable. I thought I would try USB adapter so I plug in a USB to Ethernet adapter which installs fine but still won't give me an any internet connectivity. I get no lights indicating connectivity and Vista says the media is disconnected. I've tried a variety of drivers to no avail. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how it can be corrected? Thanks. |

Nforce Networking Controller... Code 10
Hi
My guess is that the Network card is not functioning. May be it needs to be switched On in the BIOS, may be it needs reinstallation of the Drivers. Read the Laptop's manual and make sure that LAN is On. Then look at Vista's Device Manger and make sure that the Network Card shows as a valid configured hardware entry. http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#ghost (the screen shot is taken from XP but the principle applies to Vista too).

No, the onboard network card is not functioning.
There is no setting in the BIOS in relation to onbard LAN. I've tried every known driver in the land and have been unsuccessful. Device Manager shows what I posted: a yellow exclamation next to nVidia nForce networking controller. Properties indicates "This device cannot start. Code 10" "Jack (MVP-Networking)." wrote: Hi My guess is that the Network card is not functioning. May be it needs to be switched On in the BIOS, may be it needs reinstallation of the Drivers.

Hi CMOS,
First of all, according to the HP webpage for your laptop, the network driver required is 'Atheros AR5007 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Driver' (link given below). You need to download and save this to a suitable location on your machine. Since you have no network access from your machine, you will have to do this on another machine with access and then copy the file to this machine. According to the 'Windows Vista Administrator's Pocket Consultant', Code 10, as you rightly state, means 'This device cannot start'. The corrective action is as follows: 'Click the Update Driver button on the Driver tab to run the Hardware Update Wizzard. Don't try to automatically find a driver. Instead, choose the manual install option and select the device'. Dwarf http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...2093&lang= en "CMOS" wrote: No, the onboard network card is not functioning.

I am having no problem with my wireless connection. It is the onboard wired
ethernet connection. I've downloaded the drivers off the COMPAQ site. I've uninstalled and reinstalled over and over. I've downloaded drivers from nVidia. I've tried legacy drivers. There is nothing in the BIOS pertaining to the onboard LAN and I'm updated to the latest BIOS.
