Solved BSOD 0x000000d1 when opening Cubase or Guitar Rig.

[Pikka Bird]

Hey dudes.

My computer recently (today) developed a nasty habit of crashing to BSOD whenever I start up Cubase 5.1 or Guitar Rig 5. The initial splash card will come up, and then bam! It used to work flawlessly with no hangups or crashes at all. The only change to my setup since last time I had both applications fired up is that yesterday I took my computer off the desk and put it on the floor to make room for a set of studio monitors, and I probably didn't use the same USB ports when I plugged everything back in. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Cubase, but to no avail.

Here's a picture of the actual BSOD, if that's any use at all (I guess everything is in the minilogs anyways, or...?)

This is sort of urgent because the band and I are recording an album and we're pretty much on the home stretch and this is a major road block for the entire project.

Welcome to the forum Pikka Bird,

The BSOD was caused by Etron USB 3.0 Extensible Host Controller Driver

Thanks a lot, Koolkat. So it was a problem with the port I'd stuck my audio interface into after the move? Who'd a thunk it, eh? I did update the driver, and it didn't BSOD, but still wasn't performing well, so I moved it to another USB port (a good old two variant) and it's all fine. That really irks me, I thought USB 3 was fully backwards compatible, but maybe the drivers I'm finding just aren't too great.

Anyways, smooth sailing from now on. Thanks again.
