The entire BSOD Squad knows that ASCAPI dated 2005 is a problem. Use your computer if you do not get another BSOD that would be great. If you do follow my guidelines to find ASACPI.sys. It is there it is in C:\Windows\System32\drivers . You can find it on the website of asus corp.

Here is a full explanation from our own USASMA
Quote:
You have the 2005 version of ASACPI.sys installed on your system. This is a known cause of BSOD's with Windows 7.
If your motherboard supports Windows 7, go to ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support- and download the latest version of the Asus ATK0110 ACPI Utility (in the Utilities or ATK section).
1 - Remove the 2005 version of ASACPI.sys (some people report this as working - but I haven't verified it).
2 - Install a Windows 7 version of the driver manually - inserting it into C:\Windows\System32\drivers.

If you do, be sure to scan the download with your antivirus BEFORE opening it.
3 - Download the Vista version of the Asus ATK0110 ACPI Utility for your motherboard and attempt to install it using Compatibility Mode (I don't have experience with this either).
4 - Download the Windows 7 version of the Asus ATK0110 ACPI Utility driver for another motherboard (I have the P6T Deluxe with a Core i7) and attempt to install that (I don't have experience with this either).

How To Find Drivers:
- I have listed links to most of the drivers in the code box below. Please use the links there to see what info I've found about those drivers.
- search Google for the name of the driver
- compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
- visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
- if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
- - The most common drivers are listed on this page: Driver Reference
- - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: http://www.carrona.org/drvrdown.html
