Fix USB 2.0 10/100 Ethernet Adapter No driver found Error: Connecting USB 2.0 10/100 Ethernet Adapter to PC gives error ‘Ethernet Adapter No driver found‘. As soon as I connect my device to PC it starts loading the device software but as soon as it completes searching the preconfigured drivers folder it shows error message ‘No driver found.’ It’s because the device tries to find the driver in the preconfigured driver folder which doesn’t have the drivers. So the fix is to manually download the device driver and install it to get rid of this error.
You can also see the error in device manager:
The device cannot start (Code 10) is basically saying that Windows, for one reason or another, cannot communicate properly with one of your programs. This communication problem is usually caused by out-of-date, missing or corrupt device drivers. Error Code 10 usually relates to communication with 1394 devices which are generally connected via a Firewire or USB cable.

hi. I bought a USb to ethernet adapter. it did not want to work. I found that it picks up the device as an optical drive. Under device manager, I uninstalled the device, did a refresh and it loaded the correct driver for my device. Hope this helps.
