Solved Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System - K10N78

hi guys, i have a ASRock M/B and i have a unkown device, i have installed the chipset off ASRock's website. but doesnt seem to resolve it, and cant seem to actually install it,

with this in mind, my computer seems to go to sleep ok though also.

can anybody sugest where to get a driver for this at all plz?

under device Ids it comes up "ACPI\AWY0001"

Try the somewhat newer (by close to 2 years newer) chipset driver directly from Nvidia,

NVIDIA DRIVERS 15.56 WHQL

Also do a custom install (it should give you a selection screen where you can choose which parts to install) and don't install the bolded bits,

• Ethernet Driver (v73.30) WHQL
• Network Management Tools (v73.25)
• SATAIDE Driver (v11.1.0.43) WHQL
• SATARAID Driver (v11.1.0.43) WHQL
• RAIDTOOL Application (v11.1.0.43) WHQL - these two are optional if using RAID
• SMBUS Driver (v4.79) WHQL
• SMU Driver (v2.08) WHQL
• GPU Driver (v197.13) WHQL
• PhysX (v9.10.0129)
• Away Mode Driver (v6.0.6000.115) WHQL
• Installer (v8.36)

May also find that after installing that it is the one highlighted in red that fixes it/makes it go away.

thank you! good thinking batman!

quick Q, my chipset seems to differ, just i get 3 answers thats all.

auto detect say: nForce 710a
speccy says: nForce 720a
and ASRock describes it as the GeForce 8200 chipset which on nvidia's website is related to nforce 730a

Other than a slightly updated integrated graphics from one to the next, I doubt that there is much if any difference between the three of them. You will probably find that that actually is the only difference between the three,

710a - no integrated graphics
720a - integrated 8100
730a - integrated 8200/8300

That and Nvidia has had a unified driver for their chipsets for a long time so there is no difference there either.

super just checked all yeah all looked same in the end, thank you very much
