    BSOD when removing hardware, PFN LIST CORRUPT


    I have a piece of hardware called the Tweecer and it connects to my laptop vis usb. This hardware has an FTDI chip inside and is used to program the computer in my truck. If you aren't familiar with this hardware, there is some software that comes with it called calcon.exe. I use this program on my Win 7 x64 Samsung laptop to see real time stats from my motor while it is running. So the calcon.exe connects to the Tweecer hardware and interfaces with the stock computer.

    I get a BSOD PFN LIST CORRUPT after I have been using calcon. If I open this program and use it for a few min, when I turn off the motor to the truck, I get the BSOD. Turning off the motor to the truck also removes power from the Tweecer. If I close calcon before I turn off the motor, I don't get the BSOD, but that really is a pain.

    In reading the mem dump, it references ftdi.sys (I think that was the file name, could have been ftdibus.sys)

    I have been reading about PFN LIST CORRUPT a lot in other threads here and I will run memtest soon. I did setup driver verifier and rebooted. I started calcon and got a BSOD of DRIVER IRQ NOT LESS OR EQUAL (first time I got this). So I disabled driver verifier.

    At this point I am slightly confused and don't know where to start since I now have two difference BSODs but the PFN LIST error is the most prominent and something I can reproduce.

    I'd like to get this resolved and am willing to do the necessary tests.

    Thanks

    ummm...what did I miss?? I read those instructions and that's how I got here. I have two different BSODs and I think one was caused by driver verifier since that was the first time I saw that particular BSOD. My question was, which one should I address first? The one I saw only once or the one that I see the other 99% of the time?

    Almost all BSOD's were caused by FTDI USB to Serial adapter:
    Driver Description: FTDI USB to Serial adaptor
    Driver Reference Table - ftdibus.sys
    Code:
     lmvm ftdibus
    start             end                 module name
    fffff880`1fddb000 fffff880`1fdebf80   ftdibus  T (no symbols)

    The driver wasn't listed in add/remove programs. I installed Driver Fusion and ran it per the instructions, the driver wasn't listed there either. I saw a USB driver listed as NEC and one as Fresco. No other USB items in that list. The last time I installed the driver, I plugged in the hardware and browsed for the location of the driver and let windows install it. I do know there are files in the system32 and/or system32\drivers folder.

    I didn't find a BIOS update listed for my computer at Support - Notebooks NP700Z5BH | Samsung Laptops.

    I ran the sfc command as you suggested and this was the result:
    C:\Users\Owner>sfc /scannow

    Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

    Beginning verification phase of system scan.
    Verification 100% complete.

    Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

    I'll run chkdsk next and report back if I have any further BSODs, I just wanted to update the thread with what I have found and done so far.

    The chkdsk log turned up no issues and I had a chance to try and reproduce the BSOD today. I only made the one change to the power profile for USB and I wasn't able to reproduce the BSOD. With how much I used the computer today, I thought I would have seen the issue. I'll report back if I see the issue again.

    thanks for the help
