Code 6: This code means there is a conflict between this
device and another device. To resolve this error code, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article
Q133240
Solution: See Hardware Troubleshooter
Code 7: This code means that no configuration can be performed
on the device. If the device works correctly, you do need not to perform
any steps to correct the code. If the device does not work correctly,
use Device Manager to remove the device and then run the Add New
Hardware wizard in Control Panel. If you continue to receive this error
code and the device does not function properly, check with the
hardware's manufacturer or the Microsoft Software Library for an updated
driver.
Solution: Reinstall Driver
Code 8: This code means the device loader (DevLoader) for a
device could not be found. For example, the .inf file for the device may
refer to a missing or invalid file. For most cases, the resolution is to
reinstall or update the driver. As an alternative, use Device Manager to
remove the device and then run the Add New Hardware wizard in Control
Panel. If you continue to receive this error code, contact the
hardware's manufacturer about updated drivers.
When the problem DevLoader is a system DevLoader, Windows should be
re-installed because this driver is built into the Vmm32.vxd file.
Note: A system DevLoader is one that is part of Vmm32.vxd, and
typically begins with an asterisk (*). If the DevLoader is a system
DevLoader, the following text is displayed:
where <name> is the system DevLoader that cannot be found.
Code 9: This code means that the information in the registry
for this device is invalid. It may be possible to resolve this error by
using Device Manager to remove the device and then running the Add New
Hardware wizard in Control Panel. If you continue to receive this error
code, contact the hardware's manufacturer for the proper registry
settings.
Solution: None
Code 10: This code means that the device failed to start (for
example, it is missing or is not working properly). To resolve this
error code, make sure the device is attached to the computer correctly.
For example, make sure all cables are plugged in fully and that all
adapter cards are plugged into their slots fully. Follow the suggested
solution button and update the device driver. It may be possible to
remove the device and re-detect it using the Add New Hardware wizard in
Control Panel.
Solution: Update Driver
Code 11: This code means that the device failed. To resolve
this error, run the Automatic
Skip Driver utility from the System Information tool. If the problem
persists, contact the hardware manufacturer for updated drivers.
Solution: Update Driver
Code 12: This code means one of the resource arbitrators
failed. This can occur if the device is software configurable and it
does not currently have a resource, if the system is out of resources
(for example, all the interrupts are in use), or if the device requests
a resource and that resource is currently in use by another device that
will not release the resource. To resolve this error code, see the
"Troubleshooting Conflicting Hardware" topic in Windows Help,
or see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q133240: Troubleshooting
Device Conflicts with Device Manager.
Solution: See Hardware Troubleshooter
Code 13: This code means the device failed due to a problem in
the device driver. To resolve this error code, use Device Manager to
remove the device and then run the Add New Hardware wizard in Control
Panel.
Solution: Detect Hardware
Code 14: This code means the device has a problem that may be
resolved by restarting your computer. To resolve this error code, shut
down Windows, turn off your computer, and then turn it back on.
