I have been using a USB belkin wireless adaptor (F5D7050) without incident since about september of last year on my computer. After reinstalling XP on a new hard drive in the past couple of weeks after my old hard disk died, I'm now running into a little difficulty. Now installing the device itself is tricky, but the folowing method worked previously (September): - Stop wireless zero configuration from running (Control panel, admin tools, services) - Install software and driver using provided Belkin CD o Plug in USB Wireless adaptor when install requests - Complete installation - Unplug wireless adaptor - Restart Wireless zero configuration - Uninstall provided belkin software - Restart - Plug in wireless adaptor o Install drivers only So. I followed this setup again, however when I installed the drivers, i received an error "The Device cannot start (Code 10)" which appeared to be due to a usb hub (although the device was plugged directly into my computer). So. I changed USB ports, and now the adaptor works (initially). Now, I have the following problem - the Wireless adaptor seems to just, well, turn itself off after about 2-3 minutes, for absolutely no reason as far as I can tell (all my other USB devices work fine). So, does anyone have any solutions. At the moment, all I can think of is to re-install XP, again, but I really dont want to do this at the moment, since I dont particularly have the time again! Thanks in advance, Robert

Here's a wild guess: Control Panel, administrator tools, computer management, hardware resources, IRQs. Look for IRQ confilcts.

don2006 I cant see "hardware resources" in "computer management"...can you advise me further please?

After spending 2 hours on the phone with Belkin Technical Support and multiple uninstall/reinstall of driver, I finally gave-up (having the error 10 code with this piece of sh*t after re-installing Windows XP), I finally gave-up. I think I'll buy another brand name. Life's a bitch, and then you give-up on Windows.
