Cannot load device driver for network adapter code 39
After cleaning a virus/trojan from my WinXP system I cannot get my network
adapters to load. In Device Manager they both have yellow exclamation marks and the error "Cannot load device driver for network adapter (code 39)". There are 4 other devices called "Wan Miniports" that also have the same error. I've reinstalled windows XP, and reinstalled the device drivers without luck. I also tried various TCP/IP and Winsock fixes without effect. I installed a fresh copy of WinXP in another folder and everything works perfectly so I know my hardware and internet connection are fine. This happened to me last year and I had to reinstall my system, but it took me weeks to reinstall my apps and get every working correctly. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! - Scott. |

Additional thoughts/info:
Since I reinstalled WinXP & upgraded to SP3, the problem has got to be in the Registry. There must be some keys that were corupted by the virus that are preventing my network devices from loading. Also, DHCP, DNS, TCP/IP Services will not start. |

Cannot load device driver for network adapter code 39
Unfortunately No.
I narrowed the problem down to the network drivers not loading, which in turn was causing adapters not to load. Specifically the IPsec.sys driver would not load due to an error 24 (file not found). In Device manager select "Show Hidden Devices" to see the hidden drivers under Plug and Play devices. TCP/IP and Netbios also do not load but they are dependant on IPsec. I tried swapping out the registry with a good backup copy I found, but that did not work either, so my original assumption that it was a registry problem is probably wrong. I finally cut my losses and reinstalled a new system which fixed the networking problems. Sorry I don't have a solution for you. Good Luck! |

Cannot load device driver for network adapter code 39
Scotts, I solved it. Pretty simple actually. I figured there was something wrong with the drivers, and simply removed the whole drivers folder in windows\system32\drivers and replaced it with a fresh folder with all the drivers. I did loose all the drivers installed later on, but now the computer works and I can add 3rd party drivers again. An alternative is of course to just replace the drivers files in question with new ones. But it felt good to replace the whole thing. Now I will do a very thorough malware scan of the whole disk.

I did both a system repair and reinstall of XP from CD which replaced all the
system drivers, but my problem still persisted. My problem must be deeper than yours. Glad to know you resolved your issue. |
