BSOD mini dmp what does this mean? Thanks!

[Jonathan_King]

Please test your hard drive: HD Diagnostic

 

[Diamond]

Did already test all of my HD's with windows 7 tests but guess I have to with the WD tools (got 3 WD 2 internal 1 external). :S

 

[Diamond]

JeeSSSSUS chrisssssssssssssssttttttt I am going mad now. So all I want to do is use the WD's tool - the new data life guard ones - so I do it all correctly and burn it to a CD - reboot and nothing - a cursor point top left thats it then I try burning another one to a DVD this time it loads but then a blank screen. Then I see that author in the link has had problems too and I gotta use SEAGATE tools WTF why are these companies so shit at all this stuff! Anyway sorry had to rant...you think seagate tools are fine then? Sigh I will use them anyway now....

 

[Diamond]

Do you think the windows test from WD would be ok - its the only one that works (from WD that is) :O

 

[Diamond]

All of my hard drives passed the windows version of WD's data lifeguard extended tests. Any more ideas ... thanks!

upodate: reseated cables to Hd's - still baffled...

Try updating the SATA controller drivers in Device Manager, or the manufacturer's site.

You may also try uninstalling them and rebooting. Be sure to create a restore point first, though.

Hmm created restore point but I cant find any WD drivers :S WD Support > Downloads > SATA & SAS > WD VelociRaptor I am a bit worried about un-installing the drivers for my system drive - is that what you ment? un install from ata device properties after right clicking hard drive in device manager? Or do you mean the standard ACHI 1.0 serial ATA controller or some other bit? Heres a pic :

 

[Diamond]

Yep I finally found something certain! The power cable to the system HD was dodgy - it was powering off. So I have changed the connection now so it should be stable but I got another BSOD! Basically I was burning a DVD of my work using convertXtodvd 3 it got to 99.9 percent finished and then the dvd started spinning at top speed and just stayed like that for ages. So eventually I had to open task manager and end the process convertXtoDVD but just as I did this it BSOD. Heres the info:

So basically I am wondering its this corrupted due to the power failures to the HD before or am I maybe getting other power failures elsewhere or its totally unrelated etc...the weird thing is that I burnt stuff just before and I did 2 more after and it was fine (after restart). Thanks!

Your stop error code of 3B pints to a hardware driver problem.

STOP 0x0000003B: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION



Usual causes: System service, Device driver, graphics driver, ?memory

The dmp pointed to the file pcouffin.sys as the cause. The process Patin-Couffin low level access layer for CD devices or low level access layer for CD/DVD/BD devices or VSO Software pcouffin belongs to the software Low level access layer for CD devices or Patin couffin engine or VSO Software pcouffin by VSO Software (www.vso-software.fr).

I have seen problems before caused by this software. The driver is very old, dated 2006. I recommend that you uninstall this software.

ASACPI.sys Sun Mar 27 22:30:36 2005

The 2005 version of this driver is a known BSOD cause.
Please visit this link: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support- download_item_mkt
Scroll down to the Utilities category, then scroll down to the "ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Windows 7 32&64-bit " (it's about the 8th item down).
Download and install it.
Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers to check and make sure that the ASACPI.sys file is date stamped from 2009 or 2010 (NOT 2005).


You have old drivers that need to be updated ASAP.

[FONT=&quot]

How To Find Drivers:[/FONT]

- 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: Drivers and Downloads

If you need help with this, please post back. After you update these drivers and get rid of VSO, reboot and see how your system runs. Post back and update us.

Diamond, you may have to refresh this page to see my updated post.

Great thanks! I thought windows 7 was better at updating than that! I have done the update for ASACPI.sys. Tpkd.sys and PxHlpa64.sys are anti piracy stuff and I cant seem to sort them out - but I think they wont matter at the moment. pcouffin.sys - says its 05 12 2006 in device manager but in system32 drivers it says its 10 03 2010! If I uninstall VSO will my convertxtodvd stop working? AS in do you mean un-install convertxtodvd or just the 'VSO devices (pcouffin device for Amd 64 bit systems)' in device manager? Anyway I will carry on looking for old drivers in device manager later as well....thanks!

 

[CarlTR6]

As much as MS spent to help manufacturers develop drivers for Win 7, I am disappointed in Windows' driver updating. Most of us here do not recommend letting Windows Update update you drivers nor using Device manager's driver update function. Read the tutorial linked below.

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/82137-drivers-turn-off-automatic-driver-installation.html

Is there an update for the VSO software that is compatible with Win 7? If so, I suggest you download it, completely uninstall the current version and install the new version. If there is not a newer version, you should completely uninstall it and find another program that is compatible with Win 7.

 

[Diamond]

Ok well I will be updating the VSO after I sort some other stuff out but I wont be able to tell if its all fixed for a week or so - due to the randomness of the BSODs - but I have had none yet - I will post back here if its all fine later...thanks.

 

[CarlTR6]

Glad you are running smoothly so far. Please update us.

 

[Diamond]

Ok well the main problem was the bad connection on one of my power leads coming out my PSU and I had a smaller problem with some drivers but all seems to be working for now so thanks to all that helped!

 

[Tews]

Glad that you have it all sorted!!

Good news! Thanks for reporting back. I am glad you sorted out the problems and are running smoothly now.
