ZDPSp50a64

Help,

In my system event viewer, I am getting about 10 errors every second. The message I am getting is

The ZDPSp50a64 NDIS Protocol Driver service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified.

So can anyone tell me what the computer is trying to do, and what driver I need to reinstall and where I might find that driver if this is indeed the problem?

Thanks.

This error most likely is caused by the 64 bit driver for your card. You will indeed have to reinstall the driver for the network card in question.

johnwill,

I hope that you can help me some more, and educate me a bit too.

Something in the system is looking for a file. What I cannot see is just what is trying to look for this file. How do I find out what it is that cannot find this file?

Thanks.

Well, it appears to be the NDIS driver from the Event Log entry.
