Magical Driver

[imagoogler]

1. I was using a PCI Wireless D-Link on my computer. (XP)

2. It had driver compatibility problems. It kept shutting down my
computer with this error:

BCCode : 1000008e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : BF86BD0C BCP3 :
F48C4CA8 BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 0_0 Product
: 768_1

3. I recently just bought a USB D-Link Wireless connector, but now,
every once in a while, my computer shuts down and it installs that old
hardware again.

4. I went under Device Manager and uninstalled the hardware/driver for
this old PCI D-link wireless connector (and, of course, physically took
the hardware out of the motherboard), so why does my computer still
recognize the hardware?

5. Do I have to find the old drivers and completely delete them off my
computer for this problem to stop?

6. Thanks for any help here.

Too vague, we may need a concise but complete description...
only you have the box in front of you.

Check add/remove programs for driver remnants.


If you hadn't done that, always do so before changing
anything in Device Manager.

That's just it. When I put the D-link PCI Ethernet Realtek hardware on
my computer, it will randomly shut down. I don't have to be doing
anything. It just shuts down. And when it reboots (I have my computer
on reboot when error occurs instead of blue screen error page) And
that's the error code that comes up after the "Your computer has shut
down due to a serious error." Other than this, I don't know what else I
can add. I researched the error number and it comes up a driver
problem. So now, with the new USB wireless connection, it doesn't shut
down all the time like it used to, but when it does, it (somehow)
re-installs the hardware for the old PCI card.

I did that already. It still installs the old driver every time.

What does "Realtek hardware" mean?
Realtek makes most of the wired, not wireless network
adapters. Above you write about 2 wireless in #1 and #3.

Do you not have the right driver, perhaps?
If nothing else works just use a different card- they are
cheap enough to not be worth the bother.

Realtek is the name brand of the PCI Wireless card I was using.

Realtek makes most of the wired, not wireless network
adapters. Above you write about 2 wireless in #1 and #3.

The one I'm using now is a USB D-Link AirPlus G DWL-G122 Wireless
Adapter.
The one I was using before was a Realtek Airplus D-Link Ethernet PCI
Wireless Adapter.

Do you not have the right driver, perhaps?

I installed the required driver from the CD the adapter came with. The
problem is that the correct driver *was* causing problems. I installed
the new USB adapter, and for the most part, it is working great. But,
like I said, every *once* in a while my computer crashes and upon
reboot, it installs the old PCI adapter's driver that I was having the
problem with.

If nothing else works just use a different card- they are
cheap enough to not be worth the bother.

I don't believe this new USB adapter is giving me the problem. The
problem I'm having is my computer is re-installing the old BAD driver
and I don't know how to prevent that. I've uninstalled the program.
I've uninstalled the old driver, but it keeps coming back.

And just to follow up... I go into the driver folder in my system32
folder (where the bad driver is), delete it and I wait. And in the
empty spot where the *just* deleted driver is, re-appears the driver I
just deleted. I've already uninstalled the software, so does XP
automatically upload a driver for a piece of hardware that isn't even
installed on my computer?? Someone help please.
