G770 on Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Embedded Controller

I have been searching everywhere on the Lenovo support/driver site and on the Internet.  I just updated to Windows 8 Pro and have found that my device manager has an alert.  It in in other devices, titled under unknown device with a heading of on Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Embedded Controller.
I am trying to find how to fix this.  I had the same problem on a Toshiba but somehow I accidentally fix that laptop.  But the Lenovo G770 has me stumped.
Please let me know what to do to correct this problem.  I saw something about a Trusted Device or so but still can not find anything.  I also searched Mircosoft but they tell you to go back to the laptop manufacturer.

  • Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System

    I have a problem in Device Manager. It's with the Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System (code 28) It's showing as an unknown device, and the hardware ID's are ACPI\VEN_HPQ&DEV_6001
    ACPI\HPQ6001
    *HPQ6001
    Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Thank you very much. I did open another question pertaining to these things and within this I'd like to post the whole situation in hopes of getting your opinion. Allthese problems started after this situation: 
     I have a HP Pavilion g6-2218nr. I'm going to be honest. I had my laptop open and was walking by it with some stuff in my hand. I dropped one of the items which was approx 5 lbs and it landed on the keyboard. I was running my HP Webcam, and was running Google Chrome with YouTube and Facebook going. I had a Melon +36 dBi Flat Panel Antenna attached to the laptop. Well basically when this item landed on the keyboard, my computer froze up completely. I had no functioning of the keyboard. I tried inputting Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Task Manager and nothing. The only thing I could think to do is hold the main power down and let it power off. When I tried powering back on the screen stayed black, the HDD light icon on the right wouldn't light up, the CD/DVD Drive seemed to make a noise when booting up, but nothing would load on the laptop. I have had some experience involving A+ training/certification, so I took the panel off and re-seated the RAM. It looked loose or off a bit so I did that, and it started working again. Later on that day it quit working again, so I re-seated the RAM again, and this time nothing. I took the entire computer apart, and put it back together, and still nothing. That night, I re-seated that first stick of RAM, and it was working again. So I figured I would try getting online, but my Melon Antenna, and an Alfa AWUS036H are now not being recognized, and comes up as "USB device not recognized The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it." Beforehand both of these devices were plug-and-play, and nothing was going wrong. Also my camera is not being recognized. I also noticed that when I connected through my laptop's built in wireless card it asked for the passphrase, which it was normally not doing as well. It seems my laptop is doing many odd things, but I'm hoping with all these signs maybe someone can help me out, or it might appear more apparent to someone else (other than the fact I need to be more careful) When I took the laptop apart and inspected the motherboard and other components everything seemed to be fine, so if anything it'd have to be something small, barely noticeable. Thank you all for the help, and I apologize in advance if anyone helps and this becomes a "brain-buster"
    I posted this on another forum, and someone said it almost sounded like a motherboard problem/issue.

  • G710 / Win8.1 Pro - missing driver Microsoft ACPI-Compl​iant Embedded Controller

    Just complete installing Win 8.1 Pro on my new G710. I got this message - missing driver Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Embedded Controller. Some users said that it can be solved with "Power Management" Driver but this one doesn't in Win 8.1 list. One user said that PM driver made his computer to slow down. Other users said that it is "Radio switch HW" driver but it is not relevant to G laptop. Any idea what to do?

    hi
        Yes this is the Detected device for Power Management.
    This just allows you to control The system power distribution.
    If you don't want to use Lenovo Power Management then that's just absolutely fine.
    Windows has its own controls for power.
    No need to wory about that ACPI\VEN_VPC&DEV_2004
    This is one of my thread where the PM solved it

  • Satellite C55D - missing driver - ACPI-compliant Device

    Hello,
    I have a Satellite C55d-A-15H -   Windows 8.1 64bit
    In Device Manager I have an entry marked "Other Devices" with a sub entry of 'Unknown Device !' 
    A right click on this and "properties" says:  
    Device Type: Other Devices
    Manufacturer: Unknown
    Location: On Microsoft ACPI-compliant System
    The drivers are not installed (code 28)
    There are no compatible drivers for this device
    When checking update driver via on-line - it fails with "Windows was unable to install your unkown device"
    Does anyone know please what's this all about and is there a driver - I've looked at the Toshiba driver list and can't seem to find anything
    thank you
    fip_man

    It's not a driver, but supplied by one of Toshiba's utilities. Try this one.

  • Lenovo ACPI-Compliant Virtual Power Controller

    Hallo, ich habe ein Ideapad y500 und seit einem clean install von windows 8 habe ich ein Kompatibilitätsproblem. Hier die Originale Windows Meldung: Kompatibilitätsproblem zwischen power management system und Windows.Ihr power management system ist nicht kompatibel mit dieser Version von Windows.Der Modellname von power management system lautet Lenovo ACPI-Compliant Virtual Power Controller. Habe die neuste Version des Lenovo Energy Management installiert. Auch schon neu installiert und das System neu aufgesetzt. Hilft alles nichts, nach paar Minuten kommt die Meldung wieder. MFG Matchmaker

    Danke für die Info. Das ist exakt die gleiche Version, die bei mir schon installiert ist. Der Übeltäter ist das BCM43XX, das beim Start von Windows 8.1 zu Abstürzen führt (Ring of Death). Im abgesicherten Modus muss ich den WLAN-Treiber deinstallieren und danach funktioniert Windows 8.1 x64 wieder. Mir ist aufgefallen dass das BIOS 3.07 zu Problemen führt, wenn man Änderungen im Start-Verhalten (USB) einstellt, dann startet Windows 8.1 auch nicht mehr. Der Fehler tritt auch bei Neu-Installationen auf.

    hi chaminga,
    Your issue might be similar to this thread.
    Can you try to uninstall any previous versions of the Lenovo Energy Management under the Control Panel (large icon view) > Programs and Features and install the latest one below:

    hi archilen,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    Just to check, do you have the latest Lenovo Energy Management that corresponds to the version of Windows?
    If you have Windows 8 and you're running Lenovo Energy Management v8.0.2.5, try downgrading it to v8.0.2.3 and observe as you may have the same scenario in this trhread.

  • G710 Missing Lenovo ACPI-Compliant Virtual Power Controller Win8.1 x64

    Hello,
    In the driver section of G710 (i7CPU) there is no Lenovo ACPI-Compliant Virtual Power Controller(Energy menager) for Windows 8.1 x64.
    Is it OK to use the one for Wndows 8 x64 instead?

    CBHedricks,
    Thanks for your replay!
    I have ton of questions for Lenovo tech support but as i read the forum here i see no point of wasting my time to create several new topics cause they just don't read it.
    For example:
    - Why the bios boot takes so long with that annoying animated "thing"? - my old 10 years old PC boots faster than G710.
    - Why the turbo boost doesn't work without battery attached? - it should be the other way around - with battery but no AC pluged in, or user's choice at best.
    And so on in that spirit...
    Hmm... where to start...  This is a community based forum, not a true tech support forum.  Most of us are fellow users of Lenovo notebooks, computers and servers with differing degrees of education and skills.  If you need support call them on the phone for best answers.
    If your computer is running Windows 8.1 like mine, t can take longer to boot from power off state than from hibernate mode. Hibernation mode saves a working image of your computer's OS, drivers and running software, then enteres low power state.  When you wake it up, it loads in the image, including loaded drivers and software and runs from where you left off.  On cold start, windows has to discover hardware, load drivers and then software.  Also - it processes any updates that are in the que for install after cold start.
    Turbo Boost is a "overclocking" type of situation, one that takes more power to operate.  This may explain why it needs two power sources to work correctly.  Other than that - I have no clue.

  • Bios not fully acpi compliant

    I can't get past a blue screen (BSOD) which states ...The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI compliant... I've researched this site and the web and can't find an answer that works. I'd like to try to update the BIOS since it's the original and there are 2 newer versions but they appear to require windows to run and I can't boot into windows. My system is:
    HP Pavilion Elite Desktop m9340f
    Q6700 @ 2.66 GHz
    6 GB RAM (2x2GB+2x1GB)
    Asus IPIBL-LB "Benicia" Motherboard
    BIOS 5.25 dated 6/16/2008
    Windows Vista 64bit
    This is how far I get:
    Windows is loading files...
    Microsoft Corporation flashes then BSOD
    Here's what I've tried so far:
    F8
    Advanced Boot Options:
    "Repair Your Computer" tries to start window, get BSOD
    "Safe Mode" "Loading Windows Files"  then BSOD
    F9 HP Diagnostics works OK and all hardware checks out OK
    F10 Setup mode, I've changed the SATA1 controller from RAID default to IDE and AHCI with same results
    F11 Recovery (tries to get into windows and get BSOD)
    Tried recovery using recovery DVDs with the same results when it tries to load windows
    Tried Windows 7 upgrade disk with same results
    Removed all RAM and tried one stick at a time with same results
    Installed HD in USB dock and have run chkdsk (no errors), MSE virus scan (no issues)
    Ran System File Checker sfc /scannow which resulted in this statement "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them" I couldn't find any details in the CBS.log file
    Tried clean HD (SSD) to recover to with same results
    Reseated video card (same results)
    Removed video card and ran off onboard video with same results
    Reset BIOS to defaults
    Cleared CMOS with jumper
    I think I've exhausted about all I can think of and find online. Any ideas on how to flash the BIOS would be appreciated.

  • KM4M-V not XP ACPI Compliant

    I have read many threads about getting my new KM4M-V to be ACPI compliant as advertised in the product details page eg:
    VIA® VT8237 Chipset
       - Integrated Direct Sound AC'97 audio.
       - Dual channel Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133 master mode EIDE controller.
    ****   - ACPI & PC2001 compliant enhanced power management.  *****
    The problem is I cannot shut down the computer without making it a non ACPI compliant Standard PC and then installing NT Apm/Legacy Interface Node. But when pressing the power button on my case nothing will happenj(it should shut down) and there is no option choices for system standby, or when the power button is pressed.
    This is not good enough. The motherboard is advertised as being ACPI compliant but mine is not.
    IPCA function is enabled in Bios which is I am told is the same as ACPI but reversed spelling? LOL
    Another issue is the current 1.2GHZ Thunderbird CPU does not show in Bios temp (n/a) and in windows based temp programs it shows as
    -71c. Thats right below zero -71. Its not overclocked at all and windows with games runs stable. I plan to buy an XP2600+ cpu in 5 days and maybe its just my old cpu is the problem there so I will overlook it for now.
    All I want is the motherboard to work as advertised  being ACPI compliant and have one of the following show in sytem device manager/Computer;
    Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC or ACPI Uniprocessor PC.
    Is it too much to ask? I have tried to force ACPI compliantcy and XP wont boot without hal.dll being in windows/system32. A renamed Halaacpi.dll or Halacpi.dll of course does not work. I have the current bios installed, tried to clear the cmos and even reinstal XP and pressing F5 to choose PC type manually but only 2 options are available 1: Standard PC with C-Step i486 or 2: Other / Insert manufacturers disk. Is there a manufacturers floppy disk? In the box all I have is the raid one.
    Sorry for the long post but I have tried to explain fully so a learnerd mind has all the facts or most thereof.
    Thanks for any help.

    Yes the power button holding for 5 seconds does turn it off after the "It is now safe to turn off" Error message as seen in the microsoft link.
    Bios is set to defaults trying fail safe and optimized. My first post mentiond I cleared the cmos.
    14a  25a  12a PSU
    APCI has NOTHING to do with RAM mate it is a function of only the motherboard. Even the power supply has nothing to do with ACPI.
    There has to be something else.
    I have another system here with Abit KV8PRO-3rdeye and Athlon 64 3000+ with Gainward 6600GT. It runs a 400w power supply in a cheap case with no problems at all. It shows ACPI Uniprocessor PC in XP system devices and shuts down as it should.
    I can only think it is this MSI board having this problem. Why not have ACPI power management listed in the Bios? It has a  IPCA function enabled which is ACPI spelled backwards. why is it that??

  • Problems directly connecting Windows 7 HP EliteBook to NI PXIe-8135 Embedded Controller

    For some reason my computer cannot connect to the NI PXIe-8135 Embedded Controller in my PXIe-1082 chassis. My computer recognizes that there is something there, but it cannot communicate with it (no packets recieved back, but packets sent). I've already checked my firewall settings, network settings, and anything else I could think of that might be preventing me from connecting to it but I have not found a single thing that tells me why I cannot connect.
    Any ideas on troubleshooting this problem, or if someone has run into the same problem please let me know - any help is greatly appreciated!
    -flynneva

    Hi flynneva,
    Are you using an ethernet cable to connect to your PC? It sounds like you just want to add this chassis to your network just like any other computer (with the embedded controller is a computer). Here is a link to Microsoft's page on this type of connection in case you haven't tried these options: 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305621 
    Also, is this embedded computer running Windows or is it a RT controller? What does your computer do to recognize the connection and what are you using to read the data? Can you ping the IP address of the controller and receive a response?
    Thanks!

  • ACPIEC Embedded Controller error in Event Viewer on XP Partition

    So, when in my XP (SP2) partittion I recently started to get hangs when I try to put the system to stand by/hybernation at the blue "preparing to go into Stand by..." screen. It just sits there, locks up and I end up having to reboot. In the XP's Event Viewer I see this ACPIEC error and that seems to be related to the BIOS. But, as we know, I am on a Mac so there is no "BIOS".
    It says "The embedded controller (EC) hardware didn't respond within the timeout period. This may indicate an error in the EC hardware or firmware, or possibly a poorly designed BIOS which accesses the EC in an unsafe manner. The EC driver will retry the failed transaction if possible."
    So, that is the only error I consistently see in the Event Viewer so I assume it is related, but if I am on a Mac and have no "BIOS" or "EC" how can I source this issue out in XP given it is a partition on my Mac?

  • Satellite X200 1AA - What is Toshiba x64 ACPI compliant?

    I have a Satellite X200 1AA notebook with Windows Vista Premium SP1 and I received through Windows Update the following optional updating notification:
    "TOSHIBA x64 ACPI-Compliant Value Added Logical and General Purpose Device".
    What device is this? What does it do? Should I install it?

    Hello
    When you check Microsoft updates you will see several optional updates for WLAN card, LAN card, Synaptics TouchPad and c64 ACPI....
    I don't want to do any updates for these devices because all tested drivers are installed and this update can change something and maybe make some problems.
    I have removed check mark in front of these update options. In my opinion you should do the same.
    If notebook runs well (all listed components) you don't need such updates.

Maybe you are looking for
