I have the same problem with my brother's Dimension 2400 with Windows XP Home Edition. I uninstalled the drivers, removed the folder, downloaded the new drivers for the Broadcom 4401 Integrated, restarted the computer and installed the new drivers. Still get code 31. My brother just got a cable modem, and can't use it because he can't get this to work. I installed a working 3Com card, and got the same problem after installing the drivers for it... Code 31 in Device Manager.

Same problem w/ Dell Dimension 8200. Have tried everything including a new NIC. Anyone know of a fix?
There's a thread I started called "NIC = Unknown Device" with a lot of suggestions there. Most have had luck with a System Restore. That wasn't an option for me and I had to do a complete reformat and reinstall of Windows XP - which, after several hours on the phone with Dell, is what they suggested as well.
