    BSOD Crash With XBOX Controller


    Hi,

    Ive got a pretty stable system generally (few games crash anyway) but when I plug in my Xbox controller into my USB slot I get a BSOD. Have attached the required dump and system health check plus a screenshot of the actual BSOD.

    Windows 7 Pro 64bit (Retail bought when W7 first launched in UK, original install)
    Intel C2D 8400 @ 3.0GHz
    Ati 4870 1GB
    Asus P5Q Pro
    4GB RAM
    1000W Coolermaster PSU
    Coolermaster Cosmos S case /w 1x200mm Side Fan, 5x120mm Fans front top and rear.

    I saw another thread regarding this issue so I uninstalled Daemon Tools as requested in that one, to no effect.

    Thanks

    Several problems


    1-ASACPI.SYS a major cause of BSOD's in the 2005 rev.

    The pre 2009 version of this driver is a known BSOD cause.

    The 2005 version of this driver is a known BSOD cause.
    Please visit this link: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. -Support- Drivers and Download P7P55D LE ASUSTeK Computer Inc. -Support- Drivers and Download P7P55D LE
    Scroll down to the Utilities category, then scroll down to the "ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Windows 7 32&64-bit" (it's about the 12th item down).
    Download and install it.
    Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers to check and make sure that the ASACPI.sys file is date stamped from 2009 or 2010 (NOT 2005).


    2- your mijxfilt.sys driver (Related to MijXfilt.sys DS3 driver from MotioninJoy) caused all three of these remove it.

    SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)
    This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address pinpoints
    the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this address
    as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
    Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003.  This means a hard
    coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
    /NODEBUG.  This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
    hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
    If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
    system is booted /DEBUG.  This will let us see why this breakpoint is
    happening.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: ffffffffc0000005, The exception code that was not handled
    Arg2: 0000000000000000, The address that the exception occurred at
    Arg3: fffff88002fe0988, Exception Record Address

    Thanks ZigZag but unfortunately that didn't work.

    I downloaded and installed that Asus file, and confirmed it is now signed 2009. I uninstalled Motionjoy and plugged the xbox controller in and it was ok.

    Then I rebooted and tried again and got the BSOD. Even though I downloaded the official controller driver from Microsoft, I did notice in device control panel for the controller it was being controlled by MotionJoy even though that was removed??

    I wonder if MJ hasnt been removed completely, or if they provide MS driver for their controller? I guess the latter is unlikely.

    Any other suggestions?

    Thanks

    EDIT: I went back into the driver folder and mijxfilt.sys was still there. So I deleted it, reinstalled the Xbox driver from MS, rebooted. Checked driver folder, no mijxfilt.sys. So I plugged my controller in and it came up "installing device", after which it promptly BSOD'd again. After the reboot I checked and mijxfilt.sys was back in the driver folder.

    Im assuming from this mijxfilt.sys is part of the MS controller driver??

    If you need a new crash log, let me know.

    It could be the driver that are being installed automatically are bad. I would uninstall the device, disable automatic driver install and then plug in the device and install the drivers you downloaded from MS.

    Unsure about motionjoy being part of MS driver but it is starting to sound hardware related. Does this only happen when plugging or unplugging? if you leave it plugged in all the time and reboot does it crash?

    I turned off automatic driver install, and I found an article covering my exact problem with this driver on the MiJ website (link below for anyone interested). Found the last post very useful.

    The issue was I uninstalled MiJ thru add/remove programs. Which didn't actually delete the driver. When I was plugging in my Xbox controller, W7 was trying to use my MiJ driver and that caused some kind of conflict.

    I had to reinstall MiJ, and with the PS3 connected right click it in device manager and uninstall driver plus checking delete driver.

    Funnily enough when I rebooted that damn sys file was STILL in the driver folder, so I manually deleted it, reinstalled the official Xbox driver and plugged it in and so far it seems to be working fine.

    Thanks to both of you who took the time to help me here, was really useful. Now if you can only offer some advice to make me suck less in games, that would be great!

    Thanks again.
