Driver Verifier BSoD on checking BIOS, 0x000000C4

[Levyathyn]

I need help with this, can't quite figure out the problem. It's really... odd. In addition to other minor system problems in this brand new build, I have a somewhat recurring driver crash related to the common Driver Verifier problem. I can't find the driver myself, so I don't know which one or ones it may be. In addition, the crash most frequently occurs when using AIDA64/Everest to check my motherboard's specs. I can view most of it, including the hardware set-up, but clicking 'BIOS' or 'ACPI' to check those parts causes an instant crash. I don't know if this is normal.


I'm not so much versed in drivers or Driver Verifier, so before I did anything I wanted to come here. Also, I tried to upload my SF data correctly, let me know if you need anything else, or if I made a mistake. Thanks for taking a look.

First, Disable Driver Verifier.

Then uninstall AIDA64 Extreme Edition

DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION (c4)
A device driver attempting to corrupt the system has been caught.  This is
because the driver was specified in the registry as being suspect (by the
administrator) and the kernel has enabled substantial checking of this driver.
If the driver attempts to corrupt the system, bugchecks 0xC4, 0xC1 and 0xA will
be among the most commonly seen crashes.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000083, MmMapIoSpace called to map, but the caller hasn't locked down the MDL pages.
Arg2: 00000000099bc018, Starting physical address to map.
Arg3: 000000000000002c, Number of bytes to map.
Arg4: 00000000000099bc, The first page frame number that isn't locked down.

Well, that alone seemed to have fixed most of my problems. I never expected Driver Verifier to be behind so much trouble, though. Game slowdown, IE9 crashes, Boot CD failures... I can even get DriverAgent to work. It's crazy.

Well, thank you for your help. It's a load off my mind that, at least for now, that post seems to have covered everything. I'll be honest, I expected a lot worse. ^_^

Was there a reason that you enabled driver verifier? It is risky, if it is not properly guided by any experienced person.

Update the thread with the latest situation .... is there any issue remaining or not.

Have you uninstalled AIDA64 Extreme?

Completely uninstalled.

As for Driver Verifier, I've never used it before, and it was enabled by default, so a lot of my various problems have been there since the beginning of this computer a month or so ago. That's why I was sort of touchy about disabling, or even how to.

I've been stressing everything a bit, and there seems to be no problem remaining. I had cleared up a few issues, like something with my .Net 4 framework, and some problem with my drivers, but since I accidentally solved everything else before I made this thread, I'm good. Thank you again.
