Edit the entries in the Device Manager

Sub-
"Device Manager".
"Network adapters."
"NVIDIA nForce network controller.

The "NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller" has a red X next to this entry.  This network is not active and will never be enabled again.  So, I would like to remove this entry from my device manager.  What are the steps I need to take to remove this entry from my device manager?

What are the correct steps to rename an entry in Device Manager?  Provided "NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller" is deleted from my device manager, I would NVIDIA nForce network controller and rename it "NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller #2".»

Thanks for any help you have sent my way on this topic.

You are right.  Entry as well as the Red 'X' indicates only that your computer sees the device here but don't know how to use.  It won't hurt anything.  It will just ignore it.

    Thank you
    Trevor

    Hello

    I studied in the Microsoft Knowledge base, and it seems that this error is displayed because the driver returned error in her routine to the driver entry.
    I think that you need to uninstall the driver, and then click find the hardware changes to reinstall or upgrade the driver.

    You can do it in Device Manager. Otherwise, you can remove the drive in the Device Manager list and after restart of the new mobile operating system should recognize the drive again.
    After this procedure, you should test the device if it will work.

  • HP m8120n no Ethernet in the Device Manager and not detected

    Hey all:

    I have a desktop HP Pavilion Media Center m8120n (product sheet here) and I recently did an installion of installation clean factory, Windows 7 Pro 64 bit with a DVD retail of Windows. I managed to get the drivers for almost everything, but there are some persistent problems.

    The most serious of them is Ethernet. I can't find drivers ethernet for this machine, even after the update of Windows running several times, no hardware drivers have been found. The ethernet controller/port is not still appear in Device Manager at all!

    I tried to use the driver for this calculation pager on the HP support site, but there is no mention of all the Ethernet/LAN drivers at all.

    I read that sometimes it is important to update the chipset first driver in order to get the job of ethernet. Since HP provides no chipset driver, I decided to try updating the chipset 8120n with theutility to update Intel drivers Intel's Support page.  I have updated to version 9.4.0.1017, once the Web page has scanned my system. However, even after the update the chipset and Windows restarts, I have still no Ethernet at all.

    Depending on the product specifications page, under the section network, the computer uses a controller Ethernet Intel 82566DC. However, after trying to install the driver for the Intel 82566DC since the Intel, the installer website told me that no network controller Intel were present on the system.

    What is really worrying, is that not only does the Device Manager does not even see an Ethernet controller, but the Intel drivers update utility didn't recognize it under the section "Wired" after that the latter had analyzed my computer. Ethernet controller also does not appear under system information.

    I'm starting to wonder if it is a hardware issue and not a driver problem at all! The Ethernet port may be damaged or does not work for Windows do not install the drivers, or even recognize it.

    Does anyone have advice or steps I could take to rule the hardware problem and find a driver that works for my installation of Windows 7 on this computer?

    "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent." -Issac Asimov, from its roman Foundation.

    Good new! It worked! It was really the BIOS that was causing the problem.

    On the Advanced Settings tab, there is an entry called Onboard LAN off, just like the desktop I have to work!

    After booting, Windows installed the drivers for it right away, and now I get to enjoy this sweet Gigabit speed on my network!

    I'm so happy that it was not a hardware problem, and that it was a simple change to the configuration of the BIOS.

    Thanks for all your help!

    I'm as resolved marker.

    The Code 10 error code is generated when the Device Manager has not enough information or error that spread upwards by device drivers is not recognized by Device Manager.

  • Satelltie M40X: NIC disappears from the Device Manager

    I have a Satellite M40X with Windows XP SP2 and my card (Realtek gigabit) network is no longer seen by Windows (or Linux: test performed with a Ubuntu live CD).

    The lan card is not seen by Toshiba HW Setup. I disappeared 2 days ago, was back yesterday that a d is not present today...
    LAN card is enabled in the BIOS.

    Can someone help me solve this problem?

    The PC is 13 months (out of warranty Toshiba...)

    Some registry keys are damaged and so the LAN card is not visible in the Device Manager (very possible) or the LAN card is damage (more)

    I think you should try to reinstall the operating system. If after installing new network card is not visible in device (such as unknown device or network card) Manager then it s a bad material work and in my opinion, that the replacement or repair will help.
