I have just had the same problem with a Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet 
 NIC.

Windows XP reports the following error:- "An error occurred during the installation 
of the device. The data is invalid"

I have tried the solution suggested by the Microsoft Knowlege Base Article - 810882. 
This did not work for me but did relate to an XP upgrade. (mine is installed on a 
new machine).  
New drivers from the manufacturer have also made no differance.  
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
