    Actually this problem occurs because of downloading and installing the Microsoft driver via the Windows Update feature. You should always go to the manufacturer's website and then download the driver for the same device from their. This error 80070103 occurs because you are trying to install a driver which is already installed on your computer. Additionally, you can even try to solve this issue by setting up the active partition to a partition type that is not hidden. For example, set the active partition to type 0x7. To do this, follow these steps given on this link - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928232
