Will Not Shut Down After Installing DWA-643 Adapter
Aug 30, 2007
HP laptop will not shut down with the DWA-643 wireless adapter card inserted in the expresscard slot. Operating system is XP SP2 Media. Laptop will just reboot itself. Of course, if I hold the power button down the system will shut down or take the card out. I have tried the Microsoft methods to shutting a system down if the system will not shut down. I've tried two different cards and get the same result. Any ideas or patch to resolve? Also, I have updated to the current driver on the Dlink download site. Using Windows zero configuration. Upgraded to latest BIOS available.

Im trying to install a LinkSys network card, and it doesn't work after I do. When I try to reinstall in device manager, the error I get is "name is already in use as either a device name or service name"I've tried all the obvious... uninstall, reinstall stuff. I know I have to play with the registry to fix this but I dont know where to start. Can anyone help me, because as of now, my mother's computer doesn't get the internet!

XP PRO, sp3: Was working on a friend's computer. Slaved his hard drive to my system. I put in Windows CD and hit Enter to repair an existing installation. I decided to give it a run, so I started the repair process. And of course, as soon as I did, I realized I was on the WRONG INSTALLATION (mine, which was working - not my friend's)! The operation hadn't yet started - at least according to the progress bar - and the screen said something like, "Setup is loading" or "Setup is preparing" or something like that.

I had to install a new hard drive on my laptop. It has windows xp. That installed ok and now I can't get my wireless to work. It says "No active network adapters". It is not plugged into the ethernet, my home computer is. I usually just get on my laptop in another room with the wireless that is built into the computer.

I was recently trying to install Medieval Total War II onto my computer. I've had it installed before in the past, and it worked fine on my computer. I wanted to play it again, so when I went to install it it gave me the blue screen. It said:Quote: A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREAIt then said something about disabling BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing, etc. Then it had what I'm guessing is the error code:***STOP: 0x00000050 (0x46263D6, 0x00000000, 0x804ED967, 0x00000001)

Have a dell xps m140, running win xp pro service pack 3. Based on your knowledge of windows xp system files and there function, i was wondering if you would know appropriate files that will need to copy. The scenario is a s follows
Got infect by a virus, virus was removed by Kaspersky. After virus removal both the 10/100 NIC and the wireless adapter, and the bluetooth have indicated that they are disconnected. However from device manager they show up as working properly, which they are not as I cannot connect to the internet and there is a red X on all three icons in the system tray. I am wondering if a system file related to network connectivity was afftected and subsequently deleted by kaspersky

I install Server 2003 Standard SP1 downloaded and installed on a PII 400, 256Mb RAM with IIS, ASP.Net 2.0, SQL server 2000 SP4, Mysql 5, and PHP5, and all without a single hitch...too good to be true. I went ahead and tried on what will be my server PIII600, 512 MB RAM, First try, Server 2003 couldn't find a file when installing, retried and it worked. Downloaded SP1 and when I was extracting it said "file is corrupt", downloaded 4 more times with same result. reformatted and reinstalled 5 more times and cannot get past "file is corrupt" on SP1 and sometimes extracting the .Net 2.0 installer got the same error. I swap all hardware with PC from first try (except RAM, Mobo, CPU, CDROM) with no change. Win98 and XP installed fine on the second PC just can't get server 2003

Sort of XP and also ME. I have two usb wireless adapters and an ADSL router. Both of the computers have access to the router but i am trying to network them together without the router. One is a laptop with windows xp and a BT Voyager 1055 adapter: http://www.shop.bt.com/invt/cbw177The other is a desctop with windows ME and a belkin wireless adapter: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/6766647.htm, I have created a network using the belkin supplied software called 'lan' using no encryption for the time being for ease of use. I have the picked up this network on the laptop and connected. I have assigned them both ip addresses that are alike except the last digit and have then gone 'run > command > ping (ip)' from each. They both get a response but i cannot access the documents folders.

I recently installed xp for the first time after replacing motherboard and CPU.I skipped setup because I didn't know what I was doing. Now I can't boot up (cold or warm) without using the original disk. Can I just go into setup and change boot settings without re-installing.Is there anything else I should know before I attempt to fix this problem? I am tired of using the disk every time I update something or install new program.

I'm trying to connect from my desktop to my laptop using RDC. They are both on my home network. When I RDC into my laptop, I get the login screen as I expected, login, and I'm in.for about two seconds. After that, the connection hangs and eventually RDC drops me
When I log into the laptop itself, the wireless connection icon in the bottom right shows "acquireing network address" for a second, finds it, and then the laptop is on the network again. I'm assuming that when I do RDC into the laptop and the desktop takes over, the network adapter on the laptop thinks it's time to sleep or disable, and drops off the lan. I confirmed this by doing a ping fromthe desktop to the laptop. Before RDC, no problem. After the RDC connection hands, I can't ping the laptop anymore. Once I log into the laptop itself, I can ping the laptop from the desktop

I installed a wireless adapter, it worked for4 days , then XP gives an error that 'xpdoes not recognize the item connected to the usb and that it has malfunctioned. I replaced the wirless adapter 3 times and even went to another vendor and it still says that. It claims that there is no driver, but when I install the software it says the driver is there. IF I delete the unknown device, it puts a driver in but the unit will not even light up.
I ran a registry cleanup fromlinksys and it was suppose to get rid of all the drivers but it still does not work. I changedto Netgear and it does the same thing.

I recently purchased Madden 2005 for the pc, I have always used a PS2 controller with a adapter to use it on my pc, but now I am having problems configing it with my ps2 controller. My adapter came w/ just a driver no software. Is there any universal software that I could use that could possibly make it so I could revamp what keys are assigned to which button. If you buy a logitech controller, it comes w/ software to change which button is considered button "1" and "2" etc...Im looking for something like that, that you could use with this adapter, like I said something universal.

Iam using XP home edition sp2, and the driver on the disk is for use with xp. I have even downloaded the latest driver from the company home page .....but still got the same result.

Please redirect, if necessary to get my XP to installon a Rosewill RC200 IDE adapter.I'm not using RAID but the Rosewill RAID card which gets me past some bad IDE channels on the mainboard.The install is being done on old gear because I have not used XP before and am doing trial benchwork.The big problem seems to be XP finding the correct file and reading it from the Rosewill floppy disk.The file is called pnp680r.sys and the error message repeatedly says "cannot copy file etc."Previous installs using Win2000 Pro have read the necessary setup file easily.What I'm wondering is if there is some setup on the card and its BIOS/RAID set info for one drive ( a Western Digital 30G on NTFS) that I haven't completed properly and so XP cannot find the info read in by the floppy.

Recently, I installed the latest NVIDIA display drivers. However, I didn't uninstall my previous drivers, and when i remembered that i have to, i did...but after i had installed the latest drivers. And that's when the problem seemed to start. I looked on the Add/Remove programs list to see if the latest drivers were there, but there was nothing there. I couldn't find them on the list anywhere. So I tried reinstalling them, and when they were being installed, i got a message saying: "Windows could not load the installer for display. Contact your hardware vendor for assitsance."

My girlfriend has an Emachines P3104 - AMD Sempron 3100+ 1.80GHz 1gig ram, xp pro sp2. At some point recently her teenage boys took it upon themselves to install a 2nd hard drive that they found in another Emachines that no longer worked. Shortly thereafter the standby button became greyed out and that function no longer worked. Then we could not get the computer to recognize or install the printer. Due to these and other various problems that accumulated over time.

After reinstalling XP due to some corrupted files, the software works OK now, but it does not recognize my display adapter, NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX440-8X. In the Device Manager there is no display adapter listed, and I am having trouble operating my scrolling and dragging features. NVIDIA is made by ChainTech.

I have recently gone back and redone a lot of windows. uninstalling updates and reinstalling them. I now do not have a display adapter showing up in the hardware manager. I cannot play games, and all rendereing is very slow. i have tried installing software from nvidia and the video card manufacturer. I have tried the add new hardware wizard, but nothing has worked. I have no idea what to do. I also took a graphics card from another computer and put it in mine and it did not show up either.

I'm trying to help my roommate get her laptop to access the Internet, but I can't figure it out.. Here are the hardware/software specs: Right now, the laptop either doesn't connect at all, or only very briefly. We've used both the Linksys networking software and the Windows one.However, it works fine when we don't have security setup, so I'm thinking it has something to do with this. We're using WPA-PSK with TKIP encryption. We don't want to have to leave our computers unsecured.

Following overactive uninstallation of an ip filtering utility, my network adapter has stopped functioning. (Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated controller, XP pro sp1)
I strongly suspect serious registry damage, but none of the three highly rated registry utilities I have used have been able to fix the problem. In Device Manager -> properties, the message is : 'device not configured properly (code 1), reinstall the driver.' Attempting to reinstall the driver gives the following error message: 'An error occurred during installation of the device The system cannot find the file specified'.
