Windows XP Device Manager Error Codes

This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)
This device has no drivers installed or is improperly configured. Update the driver(s) by clicking Update Driver, which starts the Hardware Update wizard. If updating the driver does not work, see your hardware documentation for more information.
 
The driver for this device might be corrupted, or your system may be running low on memory or other resources. (Code 3) If the driver is corrupted, uninstall the driver and scan for new hardware to install the driver again. To scan for new hardware, click on the Action menu in Device Manager, and then select Scan for hardware changes.
If your computer does not have enough memory to run the device, you can close some applications to make memory available. To check memory and system resources, right-click My Computer, click Properties, click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Performance. You may need to install additional random access memory (RAM). On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
Device failed to start. Click Update Driver to update the drivers for this device. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. (Code 12)
Two devices have been assigned the same input/output (I/O) ports, the same interrupt, or the same Direct Memory Access channel (either by the BIOS, the operating system, or a combination of the two). This error message can also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device (for example, if a universal serial bus (USB) controller does not get an interrupt from the BIOS because of a corrupt Multiprocessor System (MPS) table). You can use Device Manager to determine where the conflict is and disable the conflicting device. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device cannot work properly until you restart your computer. (Code 14)
Restart your computer.
 
Windows cannot identify all the resources this device uses. (Code 16)
The device is only partially configured.
To specify additional resources for this device, click the Resources tab in Device Manager. If there is a resource with a question mark next to it in the list of resources assigned to the device, select that resource to assign it to the device. If the resource cannot be changed, click Change Settings. If Change Settings is unavailable, try clearing the Use automatic settings check box to make it available. If this is not a Plug and Play device, check the hardware documentation for more information. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
Reinstall the drivers for this device. (Code 18)
The drivers for this device must be reinstalled. Click Update Driver, which starts the Hardware Update wizard. Alternately, uninstall the driver, and then click Scan for hardware changes to reload the drivers.
 
Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)
To fix this problem you can first try running a troubleshooting wizard. If that does not work, you should uninstall and then reinstall the hardware device.
A registry problem was detected.
This can occur when more than one service is defined for a device, if there is a failure opening the service subkey, or if the driver name cannot be obtained from the service subkey. Try these options:
On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
Click Uninstall, and then click Scan for hardware changes to load a usable driver.
Restart the computer in Safe Mode, and then select Last Known Good Configuration, which rolls back to the most recent successful registry configuration. As a last resort, you can edit the registry directly. For more information, see the Registry Reference in the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Resource Kit at http://www.microsof t.com/reskit.
 
This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)
The device does not appear to be present. The problem could be bad hardware, or a new driver might be needed. Devices stay in this state if they have been prepared for removal. After you remove the device, this error disappears. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device is disabled because the firmware of the device did not give it the required resources. (Code 29)
Enable the device in the BIOS of the device. For information about how to make this change, see the hardware documentation or contact the hardware vendor. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
Windows was unable to load the driver. Try updating the driver for this device. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
A driver (service) for this device has been disabled. An alternate driver may be providing this functionality (Code 32)
The start type for this driver is set to disabled in the registry. Uninstall the driver, and then click Scan for hardware changes to reinstall or upgrade the driver. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard. If the driver is required, and if reinstalling or upgrading does not work, change the start type in the registry using the registry editor. For more information, see the Registry Reference in the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Resource Kit at http://www.microsof t.com/reskit.
 
Windows cannot determine which resources are required for this device. (Code 33)
The translator that determines the types of resources required by the device has failed. Contact the hardware vendor, and configure or replace hardware. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
Windows cannot determine the settings for this device. Consult the documentation that came with this device and use the Resource tab to set the configuration. (Code 34)
The device requires manual configuration. Change the hardware settings by setting jumpers or running a vendor-supplied tool, and then use the Resources tab in Device Manager to configure the device. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
Your computer's system firmware does not include enough information to properly configure and use this device. To use this device, contact your computer manufacturer to obtain a firmware or BIOS update. (Code 35)
The Multiprocessor System (MPS) table, which stores the resource assignments for the BIOS, is missing an entry for your device and needs to be updated. Obtain a new BIOS from the system vendor. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
 
This device is requesting a PCI interrupt but is configured for an ISA interrupt (or vice versa). Please use the computer's system setup program to reconfigure the interrupt for this device. (Code 36 )
Interrupt request (IRQ) translation failed.
Try using the BIOS setup tool to change settings for IRQ reservations (if such options exist). The BIOS might have options to reserve certain IRQs for peripheral component interconnect (PCI) or ISA devices. For more information about changing BIOS settings, see the hardware documentation. On the General Properties tab of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooting wizard.
