receiving code 39 ..... cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The
driver may be corrupted..missing etc etc.....
The drivers are loaded into windows xp pro and the system is seeing them
also the device in the pci slot is seen by device manager except the yellow
and black exclamation mark of course...telling me error 39....seems like a
registry corruption here...other posts I've seen have a fix but for cd and
dvd rom's etc nothing for pci slot with sound card...p.s. i installed a
working sound card from another pc etc but same thing came up ... any help
greatly appreciated..
 
Thanks R B yes I tried that...more information...the drivers I installed are
the latest for the sound blaster audigy card....however when I installed them
windows said they were not digitally signed...They are and show up in dxdiag
and also in properties for the device as digitally signed by windows
etc...another wierd outcome of my diagnostics is that all restore points
before I tried to install this device had been wiped out? or at least were
not there...
