Solved device detection logs

[timeless]

that was my assumption regarding the mouse, but then the cable was damaged.. or should l say the connector so it could be pure coincidence it happened while disconnecting externals, and l must admit l remember it happening at just once under normal usage.

 

[maxie]

More than likely a coincidence how ever time shall tell .. Have started testing again , got home late this afternoon back from the old smoke ...

 

[timeless]

(touch wood) so far lve not had the device disconnection/reconnection sound so far. had some annoyances with the wireless.. but they are unrelated since the laptop was experiencing them as well.. was prolly just the router being bogged down, other than that so far so good.

 

[maxie]

That is great news ... I have had no problems either so far any how ... Still using the old Motherboard Bios though ..

Will change that today and see how that goes ... Then it will be time to start on the Drivers ...

 

[timeless]

lm still going to keep an eye on things for another week or two tho as it always seemed hit or miss, however hopefully things have resolved.

 

[maxie]

Yes i would expect that .. It is way to early yet to think the issue may be Resolved after the problems you have had ...

been noticing that svchost has started to eat my ram again, one of the services was eating nearly a gig of my ram on its own..

then l remembered process explorer it seems the svchost processes eating my ram are all labelled as being under the explorer process so l looked under the threads tab on the properties of the service to notice the largest of the svchost processes seems to have many instances of "ntdll.dll!RtlValidateHeap+0x170" within it, the other did as well but not as many, lm wondering if thats what has started eating my ram, my basic google search did reveal a few had issues but mostly with CPU usage not ram.

 

[maxie]

Has to be some thing else your CPU looks fine Your Ram usage is not that high either ..

Does it go up more or come down ? ....

 

[timeless]

comparing to before my upgrade to this system ld usually reboot once a week. average usage would be around 25% of my ram rising when l was browsing (obviously), however svchost services would never use the amount of ram they do now.

if l left it then it would rise higher and higher, lve seen once svchost use 1gb of ram along with explorer using around 500meg, but since taking a gander l know the processes that seem to start eating ram are namely svchost proeccesses which are under the explorer process, l also noticed one instance of "iphlpsvc" being listed in the service column which l believe is the IP Help service that said lve just gone through disk cleanup if memory serves l cleared 700mb of system error memory dumps a few weeks back theres like 600meg of them there again!!

 

[maxie]

It is the Helper program and yes they do tend to keep coming back ... I am sure your System should be clean so can rule that out ... I thought you where away for Days at a time and you still leave the System on ...

 

[timeless]

actually when lm at home l tend to leave the system on, usually away from it no longer than 6 hours depending on how bad my insomnia is, if l leave the house or prolonged bad weather is expected l will shut down but generally my main means of entertainment, learning and work is with my computer and considering how much l use it l think starting up and shutting down as much as ld need to if l did would put pointless stress on the hardware.

either way a memory dump located in this dir: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP seems to have grown quite large again for some reason, on that matter is there a way to read the file? that said l might not be able to make heads nor tails of it so lve just compressed the file (its about 110mb compressed) if l uploaded it somewhere could it give an idea as to what the issue with my ram is? or would it just be pointless.

 

[maxie]

It seems we suffer from the same problems .. Just wonder what else we have in common ... As for the Dump Files that is an area which i know nothing about .... Maybe the Link below might be of some Help ...

How to analyze a memory dump on Windows after a blue screen error? - Super User

They are for BSOD though ...

have uploaded and posted a copy on my other thread

lol as for things in common, likely allot more considering l like teching problems lol tho some tend to be more annoying like this one. that said if your an Anime fan my collection will prolly blow you away

 

[maxie]

Will see if i can get some one to look at your Files ... I also do like problems and used to do Art work in the Anime area can not do it now though ... Such a shame ...

 

[timeless]

appreciated, would definitely be interesting to find out if there is any correlation with the fact that such large logs have appeared. tho lm still confused at why lm using so much ram lol.

still like l said my computer is my entertainment system, and since l hate the crap on normal TV l download most of what l watch.. which l will add everything is unlicensed and unlikely to ever be released in this country meaning most of the stuff l watch is fansubbed and like l said my collection will blow most ppls minds lol. gotten into reading recently, tho l do have a small collection of visual novels from animes lve watched XD

 

[maxie]

No problem ... Always have the TV on but seldom watch much of it .. It has got worse over the years the problem seems to be to many Channels to many repeats .. Was better when there was only a few Channels

 

[timeless]

agreed, then again there are a few interesting programs tho its been a while since any of them have been shown, plus its too much trouble to get the aerial into my room, along with the fact the internet is much more entertaining lol.

 

[maxie]

A few years back i was going to get an Outside Aerial the guy came to Install it but would not put it on the roof .. He wanted to stick it on the back wall .. That would not have been much good be cause when the gutters needed cleaned it would be in the way ... So i went for cable no Aerial needed ..

 

[timeless]

thats the way to do it lol, only problem l have is we cant get cable round here otherwise ld have been on faster net ages ago.

been on fibre for threeish years now as we dont have any cable providers anywhere near us.. still despite the annoyance of the 2meg adsl+ lm glad that l finally lived in an area where l could get proper internet lol. l get 37meg down and 9meg up which suits me nicely especially considering my connection is rated at "up to" 40down 10up.

 

[maxie]

Yes your Speeds are pretty good .... I use to have Dial-up now that was really bad .. But did not have much other choice at that time .. Living in the sticks was surprised when they started to lay Cable ...
