im literally losing my mind here fun morning... a commercial VPN app won't connect after teh BCM57xx (Windows 2000/XP) update.

USB Audio Device Properties
Device status:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.
I reinstalled the VPN clinet, no change lol The virtual adapter shows in Network Connections, but it looks disabled or missing deatils. Is there a way to reset just the VPN side without wrecking teh rest of my network settings? Id also like to know whether this is smth I should report to IT or to the driver vendor, because I suspect I wont be the only one hitting it.
RAM prices doing their own thing again smh
