since I got my 5th bsod by now. the first one was idk but the past 4 were about "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA"
and it always happened when i tried to shake the mouse to turn on from sleep mode (not touching the computer for a long time)
i have an hp dv6-2044ca, amd turion ii mobile dual core m500, 4gb ram
idk why it happens and when i used "WhoCrashed", i got this analysis............
I was a happy DM3-1030US customer for about a month until this morning when an incredibly strange and frustrating problem has rendered the laptop useless.
Last night when I finished using the PC I left it disconnected from the charger so it naturally ran out of juice and turned itself off.
This morning I plugged it back in and slid the power switch, the fans turned on power light lit up (but not caps lock and Wi-Fi light is orange) but the screen is completely black. The fans remain spinning, computer is clearly receiving power and turned on but nothing happens at all. I've tried leaving it in that state for 30+ minutes to no avail.
I tried removing the battery for 20+ minutes then trying again to no avail. Most frightening of all I completely removed the power and turned on the PC via direct AC power with exactly the same result. This leads me to believe something has completely failed at a hardware level in this machine. Has anyone else experienced anything at all like this?
I'm very dissapointed that such an issue is occuring with a brand new machine like this. I've always thought the price I paid (around $500 from staples with multiple rebates) was too good to be true and now that appears to be the case. Unless HP is extremely graceful in their resolution of this matter I don't see myself purchasing another product from them again, which is a shame since I've purchased multiple laptops as well as my 30" monitor from them in the past. I was even considering purchasing the new Envy 14 when it's released.
My friend received a dv4t a month ago, and we did clean install on it day one. But this morning, it started flickering heavily - past the point where its 90 degrees to table surface. So while opening the screen lid, everything seems and works fine upto the points when screen is approx perpendicular to keyboard, and even a slight push beyond that and screen either goes blank or it flickers heavily altering white and black screens, no desktop visible. I did another clean install, and problem was persistent even while clean install was in progress, and even after it was done and I installed drivers for it from SWSetwup folder. I am currently chatting with HP rep and he apparently knows nothing about it.

I suppose I'm going to have to do without a computer now to send this in to get it replaced instead of HP just sending me a replacement keyboard... Why do they insist on everything being sent into them? A keyboard replacement takes all of 5 minutes to do.
View 8 Replies View RelatedOne month after my warranty expires, my 12 cell dv5t battery stops dead in its tracks. No warning, no nothing! (Was working fine up until it died, and hadn't even lost much usage time, considering its been used fairly much.) And I have a 3 year extended warranty, that, of course, doesn't cover the battery!
But there's a tiny bit of good news. . . I learned a very good tip ---I didn't know, until I was on the phone with the HP sales guy spending $160 for a new one (double grr) that you can still use your laptop with a dead battery, if you take the battery out! I thought there was no way to use my laptop, and now I can, so at least I won't lose valuable computing time while I'm waiting for UPS. Small consolation, but I HATE it when I don't have access to my computer!
i was surfing the web today using mozilla firefox, and for sum reason it became unresponsive on me, so i let it be, so it would become responsive again. once i had control of it again. the screen went blue. saying that sumthing went wrong and the computer had to restart. it restarted and when it tried to starting up windows the following message came.
"Boot Device Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk
Hard Disk - (3F0)
F2 System Diagnostics
For more information visit:[url]
the computer would not let me click the F2 key to run the diagnostics as well as when i tried to hold down the power button for at least a MINUTE it wouldnt turn off! it is just stuck on that screen!
its only been about a month. So far i am waiting for the battery to run out so i can try and turn it on to see what is wrong Im afraid to pull the battery as i think it may cause damage to the computer!
I get a BSOD just after the install disc loads all the drivers and says "starting windows". It also did this with a clean drive, thus I can't blame the restore partition, at least not in that case.
I tried using the restore partition, and just get "Error 100a". My internet connection here is too bad to do a lot of research on this.
The only install that worked was of a Vista Ult. on the clean drive. Vista Home freezes at "completing installation".
Ran Memtest and sector scans of both HDD's. All %100
I have an Envy 15 1060ea, i7-720qm, 4gb, 4830 etc.
I burnt off the recovery disks because i wanted to install my own version of windows 7 ultimate.
I did so, installed all the necessary drivers and avast anti-virus.
The problem i face is that if i install ANYTHING other than the ati drivers supplied by HP my laptop BSOD's on boot.
I have tried the 10.3 and the 10.2 from strags.com. Even the 9.9 beta from ati's website doesn't work.
The computer is running fine otherwise, without a single hiccup.
I cant overclock when the HP drivers are installed, and i have tried every possible tool, invluding atitool, rivatuner, atitray, and the amd gpu clock tool
I want to overclock the card a bit and get the full slew of options available, since the CCC that comes with the HP drivers is gimped.
i had more than 10 bsods now and the time period was as follows.
~5 bsods and solved by updating graphics drivers.
now, like 2 weeks later, it has been running fine and i decided i want to update my graphics driver by manually modding the inf file in the latest desktop drivers..
it did work out, but now it's giving me bsod errors everytime i close my laptop and come bak later to open it.
i also recently (today) installed a new realtek PCIe family controller driver..
so i dont know which driver is causing the bsod (0x50 non-paged fault)
right now my gfx is on 8.661 (found on a website, but WHQL certified)
I got couple of BSOD in my new HP DV6-2106ea machine (Windows Vista Ultimate x64, core i7, nVidia Geforce gt230m, 4gb RAM). i have attached the screenshot for ur better understanding.
I have run the memtest86+ and didn't find any problem with the RAM and also my BIOS has been up to date with the latest version A14. nvidia driver is also the latest one from nvidia website.
I have an 8710p:
Seagate 320g
C2D T7500 2.2ghz
4 Gigs of ram
Quadro NVS 320m
Windows Vista Biz 64bit
Latest build, BIOS and Drivers
Problem 1 When I listen to music at full volume the laptop BSOD's (only full volume)
This is the error from the the bsod:
The driver detected a controller error on DeviceIdeIdePort4. (With an event ID of 11)
Problem 2 When I check the report, it says:
(Under system)
This is every time i start the computer:
The speed of processor 0 is being limited by system firmware. The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 0 seconds since the last report.

I purchased an HP DV7-1273cl from Costco about a month ago. I did only, and I mean only, the windows updates and the updates listed for my model on hp.com. After those updates, I got a couple errors that automatically did a restart and boot to "No bootable device found, please insert disc and press any key" which I wasn't able to get around until I pulled out the battery. Called Costco Concierge which led to a call to HP. Long story short, this time, I ran a comprehensive hdd test which passed and HP sent me recovery discs to rule out bad recovery partition. It didn't work. i then had to send the laptop to HP service. Apparently they replaced the motherboard and scratched the living $h!t out of the top of the lid. I called Cost Con to complain about the scratches and as soon as I hung up, BSoD.
So, I buy another refurb to see if I have better luck. Just my luck. After doing a factory recovery via the discs just to be safe, the 2nd Laptop is doing the same thing, just not as frequent. I got the "No bootable device found, please insert disc and press any key" once. It BSoD'd a couple times since Friday night. One of the BSoD said something about a Kernel Stack Page Error. At this point in my journey, I set the laptop to not automatically reboot after a BSoD. Again, the only updates I've done are the Windows updates and HP.com updates which include: BIOS update, Wireless adapter, NIC update, NVidia update (via Nvidia.com), Intel Chipset update, Webcam Software, DVD Software, MediaSmart Menu Software, Bluetooth, Essential System Updates for Windows Vista SP1. Full list of updates is at link.

A buddy told me to try a different hdd.
I have a hp laptop 9843cl with 64 bit vista. it crashes randomly quite often. It says "IRQL less than or equal to" and near the end writes NETw5v64.sys and some other numbers. This is related to Intel wireless driver link 4965AGN.
I tried many things, memory check, hard drive check, drivee update check.
I get random crashes and the apparent crashes I get all relate to this error message:
Realtek RTL8168/8111 Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (rtlh86.sys, rtlh64.sys)
This problem was caused by a missing driver for Realtek RTL8168/8111 Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (rtlh86.sys, rtlh64.sys), which was created by Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
According to the spec sheet for my laptop and Hp's website this is what I have on my laptop: Realtek RTL8101 Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC rather than the 8168.
Could this conflicting information be the source of the problem? How come Windows shows a different NIC to the HP website? I've tried to download the driver off the Realtek website but I find the website frustratingly annoying and basically pants (for such a global player)!
how to slipstream sata drivers onto Windows XP installation disk I decided to try it out. I had two unsuccessful attempts and I'm wondering that it probably is due to me using the wrong drivers for the job.
I have a Dv5t 1135ee, can anybody please direct me to the right drivers that I need to put onto my Windows XP installtion disk to not get a BSoD.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have the M1330, T8300, LED, 4GB, 250 GB, 8400 GS. This is the second time the GPU failed(GPU failed first week of use) and there will be a technician coming later on this week.
Has anyone had success getting a replacement laptop, i.e XPS Studio 13. Seeing that I have 6 months left on the warranty and the extra 1 year for GPU issues, should I continue to get the 8400 fixed?
Have they resolved the issue with these "newly soldered motherboards"? Should I just ask to be replaced with an X3100? I don't really game, but do watch a lot of movies, especially HD rips.
When I watched a film the other day the laptop was actually burning me. I installed speedfan and it said the temperature was 74c
I thought well to stop it burning me I could plug it into my HDTV only to receive a BSOD 20 mins into the film claiming a video card failure.
It still boots up fine but even on desktop idiling its still at 60cand gets hotter still when doing basic tasks
One thing I hate about PCs and laptops is that they inevitably slow down, which is somewhat understandable as OS and software demands increase year on year. However, my fear is that my Acer 6930G is slowing down on me only after a month of use! I can see the beginnings of it struggling to do what used to be simple tasks.
For example, streaming HD videos on the net (youtube HD, GameTrailers HD) was a cake walk during the first few weeks of use. Now it struggles and stutters when trying to stream sub-HD content. Opening the task manager shows that its maxing out both cores of my CPU when viewing these videos. This is abnormal. And from time to time the system will fail to respond for 30 seconds or so.
I'm not too happy as I've only recently purchased the laptop. There are probably many reasons why, but I'm not sure where to begin. Anyone be able to lend me some insight at why my laptop is behaving like this all of a sudden?
i ordered my dell online at a dell kiosk center. They told me it would only take 7-10 days but when i checked my order online it said it would arrive in a month time. -_- whats going on?

I have a FW-390J and yesterday I have noticed a dead pixel appeared at the lower left corner, that is new and was not there before..
This morning I found another dead pixel very near to the first one and if I focus enough I can see a couple of more fainted dots..
I feel a bit frustrated and disappointed. I had the same problem with a my previous Toshiba A300 which I replaced with this model
I forgot my Z-series plugged in AC ( switched off ofcourse) for about a month or 3 weeks. I am so terrified that this might have affected the battery life? The laptop is brand new that makes me more upset

- game profiles now removed from driver to separate XML files. That way when a new game comes out you don't have to wait for the next driver release to have specific fixes or patches for that game.
These profiles will come out as "often as required"
- eyefinity is now supported in crossfire and crossfireX modes
- bezel correction for eyefinity
- 3D support updates

It's been over two years since the last update, but Dell finally released a patch for the faulty nVidia graphics chips to help delay failure. That's the only fix listed in the A10 release. I wanted to let everyone know that if you have an nVidia graphics card in your E1705 or any other laptop from 2006-2008 you should check for the latest BIOS update because these cards have faulty thermal design that causes overheating and failure. The symptoms are odd colored pixels, video flickering, rebooting and system crashes, program crashes, odd lines on screen, etc - once you start to exerience this it's already too late, your chip is damaged and needs to be replaced. Likely, at this point, every system out there is probably already experiencing some form of failure so to be safe, if you're still under warranty, I'd use it to get a new card as soon as you can and apply this BIOS update. Anyway, you can find the BIOS update here:

I've had my XPS 1340 for a few weeks. While everything is great, I keep getting crashes. I have had a two freezes where I had to hard boot it and 6 or 7 blue screens when trying to wake it up from sleep. Anyone have any ideas before I call Dell? I already updated everything.

Things had been working great up until last night. I was reading something on a webpage when I got a pop up window on the page I was on, and when I clicked the window closed, I crashed to blue screen of death.
Haven't been able to do much since then. Not sure if its hardware or software related, but I do notice that my McAfee isn't running now and when I try to update it says 'Components Are Missing' and to reinstall.
Can't get far enough in a reinstall before I crash again, so thats getting me no where.
I was able to do a system restore to a day earlier, but the problem is still there.
I also have no way to network in safe mode due to only having wireless internet access.
If anyone has any suggestions on where to get help to find out what might be causing the problem. Please let me know. I can follow instruction if anyone can walk me through what I need to look for.
My 9months old XPS M1530 has still got the BSOD problem (after being replaced the faulty RAM). this morning i got the problem again but as i was dashing to my work i didn't take a note of the screen.
