Click start control panel administration tools computer management device manager scroll through all of your devices

if you see a yellow question or exclamation mark ? ! or a red X you will need to update the drivers for this device right click select update driver/reinstall driver


if you can see your usb device but its not working scroll to Ports(Com&Ltd) right click to update driver

if you computer came with a motherboard disk the drivers could be on it

or you might have to download one

http://download.cnet.com/slimdrivers-free/3000-18513_4-75279940.html


http://www.driver-fix.com/scan.php?id=scan5&key=2

note: it will find all of your outdated drivers


both of these are free driver solutions

they will automatically search for and for the correct driver

hope it helps you

    Device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. Code 31. Downloading from the sites above says could be harmful to my computer, and how do I get desktop to a download site if no internet.

    if your computer came with a motherboard disk the drivers could be on it
    if you cant get an internet connection you will need a disk with the drivers on it

Need new download of ISATAP drivers

Greetings,

On a Windows Vista-based computer, the Microsoft ISATAP adapter appears with a yellow exclamation mark (!) next to it in Device Manager.
You can safely ignore this error message. This error message does not indicate a problem with the adapter. The adapter will continue to work correctly.
Check out this article for more information on this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932520
If this is still not working,
First try to reset Winsock from command prompt, this will reset all the Network components to default:
Click on start, type CMD,'Right click and Run as Administrator'.
At the command prompt type:
netsh winsock reset catalog
In such a case, I suspect this problem to be caused by network adapter missing or corrupt. Please firstly reinstall the driver for your wireless network adapter. Then try to reinstall Microsoft ISATAP using following steps:
1.In Device Manger, right-click the item of Microsoft ISATAP and select Uninstall.
2.Still in Device Manager, click Action and select Add legacy hardware.
3.Click Next, and select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced), click Next.
4.Select Network Adapters and click Next.
5.Select Microsoft in left panel and Microsoft ISATAP Adapter in the right panel.
6.Click Next and finish the remaining wizard.

I have windows vista home premium on my home computer and have been experiencing some internet disruptions. The only two ways I have found to reset the internet connection is (1) unplug my router and then...

In the Control Panel, update the drivers. If still unsuccessful, delete those adapters, restart your workstation and reinstall drivers. Helpful to have another workstation nearby in case you need to download the drivers from the Internet.
