Code 10 means that the sound card drivers could not start.... try this:


Goto START.
Right click on My Computer and select properties.
Select the hardware tab.
Select Device Manager.

Here you should see the audio device with a yellow exclamation mark by it.

Right click on it and select uninstall.

Once that has happened look for ACTION in device manager ( Up by FILE and select scan for new hardware.

IF this doesn't fix it you'll probably need to try downloading the latest drivers for the card or it could be defective!

Code 10 error

okay some ppl have been having the same problem with that device cause the PID number isn't the same

First find out what VID and PID Numbers you have

Step 1 go to device manager locate the "Linksys wireless G usb network adapter" (the name in quotes may be different for you but find your card which should have a similar name)

Step 2 right click on it and go to properties

Step 3 go to details tab

Step 4 either write the VID and PID numbers down or leave that window open to come back to later

Then you find the INF file and open in notepad (the one you downloaded 1xxx for vista)

Lastly in the INF file you locate the section under

;--------------------------------------------------
; Added support for Belkin and Linksys
;--------------------------------------------------

And place your VID and PID numbers in the appropriate spot

;--------------------------------------------------
; Added support for Belkin and Linksys
;--------------------------------------------------

;Belkin F5D7051
%F5D7051_DeviceDesc% = RNDIS, USBVID_1799&PID_7051
%F5D7051_DeviceDesc% = RNDIS, USBVID_050D&PID_7051

then save the file, re install the driver and restart your PC...

Good luck, let me know

Please help me

If after connect your usb speaker cable the system it is asking for software (drivers) you have to install them to get your audio working properly. Check it out the box of your new speakers for a installation CD.

You can also verify:

Check if your audio es working properly (start >> control panel >> sound and audio devices)
Check if your sound card is properly installed (My pc >> Properties >> Hardware >> Device Manager >> Audio)

Logitech installation CD error

Normal 0 Did you install the software with the camera connected to the computer? Disconnect the camera from the USB port and reinstall the software. When the program asks you to connect the camera, do so, and it should work. Hope this is of some help. Bud

Below is info for setting up Audio & Video to chat on line after you install , either Skype or a messenger program.


Web Camera’s have to be setup on the program they are to be used with. Just installing the camera on your computer does not set it up to broadcast on messengers or Skype.
Each program has Options that have to be setup in order for the Audio and Video to function properly.
A. Skype Setup:
After downloading and installing Skype set it up as follows:
  1. Go to TOOLS, then OPTIONS, and click on Audio Settings and set the Microphone and Speakers to the computer Audio Card.
  2. Then click on the Video Settings.
  3. The camera if installed properly will come up and show a picture.
  4. Then on the bottom of the page click on Save.
The camera and audio should function properly. Your friends and Family will now see and talk to you.
B. Yahoo Setup:
After downloading and installing Yahoo Messenger set it up as follows:
  1. Go to Messenger at the top left and click on it.
  2. Next go down to Preferences and click on it.
  3. Next Calling and Devices on the right and set the Microphone and Speakers to the computer Audio Card.
  4. Next go to the Test Audio section and (in blue writing) click on “Open the call setup assistant” and follow the instructions on the left window.
When done both the Audio and Video will function properly so you can chat and see family or friends you are connected to.
Hope this helps. Bud
