This problem has been my bane now for nearly 5 months! The obvious Uninstall followed by an automatic driver reload only resulted in a “Failed” installation. When I installed the Windows 7 patch from HP, my DVD-Rom player quit working, along with the dreaded Code 10 error and yellow caution triangle alert. After upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate from Vista Home Premium, my HP Officejet Printer quit working.

You can also start the Windows troubleshooting wizard by going to the general properties tab of the device, and clicking on “Troubleshoot”.īefore doing this, be sure that you have the correct and most up-to-date versions of the driver(s) for that device.

It means that if the device which is throwing the error has added its own custom error text to your Windows system when the device was installed, then when the device encounters an error, you will see the custom error message specific to that device.
