BSOD - Clock interrupt not received within allocated interval

[earlstroup]

Seven Forums Problem Report 01 – 26 Jul 2013

Problem: System crashes at random intervals, e.g., crashed with Blue Screen on Tues 7/23/2013 12:37; Wed 7/23/2013 2:45; Wed 7/24/2013 3:48; Thur 7/25/2013 4:15,

Who Crashed stated: “Bug check description: This indicates that an expected clock interrupt on a secondary processor, in a multi-processor system, was not received within the allocated interval”

The expected clock interrupts message has appeared in every blue screen crash..


Actions Taken:

1. Ran Resplendence WhoCrashed Ver 4.02
2. Ran Systweak Advanced System Optimizer Disk Tools (Chkdsk /f )
3. Ran Memtest - ran Memtest for two hours - test 7 failed with errors on test; repeated test twice (interrupted after 2 hours). No errors were detected. Ran fourth test with the following options: “memtest onepass maxcpus=4 ttstlist=7” No errors were detected. Ran Memtest overnight (9 hours). No errors were detected.
4. Ran Speedfan – no temperature problems reported
5. Successfully reinstalled the drivers originally installed on the system by Puget Systems:
Chipset, Intel Management Engine, Intel SATA driver, Video Driver, Ethernet Driver, Marvel SATA Driver, USB3 Driver, Onboard Audio Driver
6. Ran DriverAgent and Advanced System Optimizer – listed out-of-date drivers (did not install updates)
7. Ran Driver Verifier – Crashed – dump is included. Disabled Verifier
8. Downloaded and ran SF Diagnostic Tool
9. Ran CPU-Z and created screen shots
10. Attached Who Crashed Crash Dump Analysis, minidump for most recent crash,
SF diagnostics results, CPU-Z screen shots

Hello earlstroup. All your BSODs are stop 0x101.

[URL="http://www.carrona.org/bsodindx.html#0x00000101"]CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT (101)[/URL]
An expected clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor in an
MP system within the allocated interval. This indicates that the specified
processor is hung and not processing interrupts.

Let us have a deeper look.

AVG is contributing to your BSODs.

Description here: Driver Reference Table - avgtpx64.sys

I'd suggest you to uninstall AVG. Moreover ....

• Start Menu\Programs\McAfee Security Scan Plus
• Start Menu\Programs\Norton Internet Security

Multiple antivirus is not anything good. They will cause your system unstable at the end. Uninstall McAfee Using McAfee Removal Tool. Uninstall Norton and all Symentec products using Norton Removal tool. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.
Download, install and update those, and then run full system scans with both of them, one by one.

The Realtek network driver is failing too.

And the driver is old.

Update it from Realtek. Get the Win7 and WinServer 2008 R2 Auto Installation Program dated 2013/5/22.

Same for the Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000 driver.

Update the Intel HD Graphics Driver, either from our forum link, http://www.sevenforums.com/graphic-...-graphics-driver-windows-7-a.html#post2166304, or You may get it from Intel Download Center.
Moreover, you may run the Intel (R) Driver Update Utility to auto detect the appropriate driver for your computer.

Intel RST driver is also failing here.

Get rid of intel rapid storage. First uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then Uninstall the driver from device manager.

1. Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
2. It will open the "computer management" window.
3. Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices up.
4. Expand "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
5. Select one Intel device item under it, right click, uninstall.
6. Continue the process for all Intel items under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
7. Now restart the computer. At restart, windows will auto configure the appropriate native system driver.

Are you using RAID? If so, disable RAID in BIOS. Then uninstall Marvell 61xx RAID Controller in Control Panel > Programs and Features. When done, follow Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling to get rid of the leftovers.
Marvell storage drivers are crash prone; and in your case, those are old enough.

So better to uninstall them, rather than updating. Storage controller set as either AHCI mode or IDE mode with system native drivers will work far better and stable.

Are you overclocking? As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings. Also set the BIOS to default, too.
How To Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS)

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy.

Finally, if you can, plan to update the BIOS. The info of your BIOS version is ....

BiosVersion = 1502
BiosReleaseDate = 03/02/2011

Get the Version 3703 dated 2013.05.17; which is supposed to
Improve system stability. Get it from P8H67-M EVO - Motherboards - ASUS

   Warning

Updating BIOS is a risky job. Any interruption during the process may damage the motherboard. If you are not sure what you are doing, take help of any other person who can do it, or a technician.

BTW, will you say that the AVG is just leftover? If so, we will change our entire troubleshooting strategy, other than what I have said about Speccy earlier.

Let us know the results.

Hello Arc,

Thank you for your help.

I have completed the following steps:
Anti-virus Programs – uninstalled AVG security toolbar, Eset.exe, MacAfee Security Scan Plus, Norton Internet Security. Installed Microsoft Security Essentials.
Browser - Downloaded but did not install Internet Security 10
Drivers – Downloaded and installed:
-- Realtek PCIE GBE Family Controller (the Windows 7 Driver and R2 Auto
Installation Program)

-- Intel HD Graphics 3000

- Intel Rapid Storage Driver (RST) – Uninstalled ATA Channel 5 through 2 from Device Manager. Channel 1 and 0 would not uninstall. Restarted Windows which then auto configured the native drivers.
- RAID – We do not use RAID however since you stated “Marvel storage drivers are crash prone” I uninstalled the Marvel 61xx driver and rebooted. Windows was unable to start but Windows ran Startup Repair automatically and successfully repaired and restarted Windows. Apparently Windows reinstalled the Marvel 61xx Driver since it is listed in the Device Manager.
Temperature – Ran HW Monitor and Speccy. I updated the post with a screen shot of the Speccy display.
BIOS – This is my wife’s computer. She spends a significant amount of time using it every day. I chose not to risk updating the BIOS at this time because any interruption in the process could brick the motherboard.
BSOD - The BSOD failure is intermittent so we won’t know whether the problem has been resolved until we have run the system for a reasonable period of time without a repeated failure, e.g., a week or more. If the problem persists the next step should be to update the BIOS. Either way I will post the result in a week or so. If the problem still persists after updating the BIOS it may be time to update all of the out-of-date drivers. I haven’t done that because conventional advice on whether to update every out-of-date driver is conflicted. Some say “If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.”

If Memtest failed on any test, it isn't a fluke on Memtest's part: it's a hardware issue. Now, if the test all of sudden starts passing again, then it's more likely a mobo or power supply issue, but I still wouldn't hold it against the RAM to be potentially bad. The 0x101 bugchecks has me feeling it may even be CPU. So I recommend at least checking it out with Prime95 on Torture Test on Blend for an overnight run. Make sure to watch temps for the first 30 minutes on your CPU. If they seem to stabilize well, you can leave it running overnight. If the system has crashed during the test, send us the crashdump.
