These instruction don't talk about Code 10, but they worked for me as well. I have Vista on an HP. I looked EVERYWHERE and all of the Vista help...wasn't helpful. This worked for me. BUT interestingly enough, the the "Guided Help" wouldn't install/work! So, it did have to be done manually. GOOD LUCK! http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060

I'm new at this forum.
let me tell you about my VISTA problem.

maybe some can help on this problem.

I'm running Vista. with COMPAQ Presario Sr1403wm.
trying to run a jump drive /w U3 software.
at device manager I get a conflict at the DVd /install.
I do not have a Dvd burning software,
I have removed or umpluged cd writer/dvd rom harware.
restarted pc them plug the jump drive I get the same comflict code10
I reboot it 3 time with cd/dvd unplug same problem.
I unpluged some USB and desable usb / same problem.

here is what it shows at device mgr.
DVD/CD-rom drivers
(!)RElay UFD USB DEVICE.

In Vista there is no resources screen to solve the conflict

I have checked the U3 web site and it should work with vista
it is know that it creates on error with dvd drive but they suggest to remove the cd or dvd drive and reboot PC , I have but same problem. they do not mention about changing anything in regedit. if any body can suggest a solution I'm willing to try.

thank you in advance.

Here is the link to the microsoft KB: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060

also...this is just advice, and i dont expect to be held accountable should anything happen....

Thank you so much for the help. I had exactly the same problem with our acer and same dvd drive. I had been struggling for a while now to make it work.

I had the same error on Windows Vista and used the link provided which by the way does show fixes for both XP and Vista. Fix worked fine. Many thanks as I have been pulling my hair out.

Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

Check for solutions does not work. It brings up a dialog that lingers for a while (i guess it communicates with server) and then disappears without so much as saying what the outcome was.

Does anybody have any idea what's wrong here and how it can be fixed? Please help because its my only optical drive O.o ATM.

By the way, its a dvd burner (dual layer) with this model: HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GSA-H21N ATA Device. And it came with the computer whic is Acer AST180-UD360A....I don't know what any of that means...

I had the same problem [device cannot start code 10]with a digital camera. What I tried, and it worked, was make my user account an administrator account.

As the sole user of my computer, there was only 1 user account active, mine. And while technically I was the administrator, some software requires that there be more than one user sccount on the computer, before administrator accounts will be acknowledged.

What I did was activate another account [guest] by turning it on. Then after I rebooted my computer, the camera installed, and works.

Hope this helps, in your situation

hi guys, i have a problem with the same error code when installing MSI PC60G-F wireless network card. I installed windows 7 and chose the upgrade feature. for about a week everything worked like a charm, then my pc suddenly couldn't find any network adapters.

I have tried installing drivers and updating where necessary, even uninstalling and reinstalling, to no avail.

What I don't understand is this, the pci wireless net card is MSI, but in device manager it was listed as Atheros something. So my best guess is that i am trying to install uncompatible drivers for my net card.

Any help on this subject would be very greatly appreciated. Thanks
