Problem devices

If you havent already try removing the problem device from the list and reboot. Let windows find it again and place things where they should go all over again. If that doesnt work make sure there are no irq's reserved. To check go to device manager and click properties. Click the tab that says reserve resources and make sure there isnt one reserved. If there is remove it and reboot. These are instructions for Win98 so the location of the device manager properties may differ slightly with millenium but you should be able to find it.

DRIVER error codes: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q125/1/74.asp

Code 22
The text displayed for this error code differs depending on the circumstances.
If this device is disabled because you disabled it using Device Manager, the following text is displayed:
This device is disabled. (Code 22) So, Click Enable Device to enable this device.

If the device is not started, the following text is displayed:
This device is not started. (Code 22) So, Click Start Device to start this device.

If the device is disabled by a driver or program, the following text is displayed: This device is disabled. (Code 22) You can't enable this device because it has been disabled by a Windows driver. For this sucker, there isn't a fix but the code means that the device is either disabled or has not started. SOoo, try removing the device in Device Manager, then redetecting it using the Add New Hardware wizard. If the problem persists, try a clean boot to rule out software interference. If the error persists, contact the hardware manufacturer.

If this is in the System Devices section of Device Manager, it is probably ACPI which is not working. Typically, it is necessary to go to the motherboard/system manufacturer and download/install the latest BIOS. Good luck!
