Hardware incompatibility: Windows 7 PCI Express APSM

Running "powercfg /energy" in Windows 7 64-bit on a T61, the report included the following error:
"Platform Power Management CapabilitiesCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) Disabled
PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) has been disabled due to a known incompatibility with the hardware in this computer."
As this is a known incompatibility, at least to Microsoft, will a fix be forthcoming?

X-Fi Fatal1ty PCI/-Express - All Hardware Acceleration Crashing, Significant R

Hello,
I've made a few posts on the forums recently about various topics to help me isolate the issue I am having. At this point, using the latest stable drivers for either a PCI or PCI-E X-Fi Fatalty, any hardware acceleration of sounds is causing my system to bluescreen, freeze or crash the application. Some games give me no option of not using hardware acceleration (ie. Rainbow6 Vegas 2), resorting in my having to change my Sound Acceleration down to Emulation Only. This setting greatly eases off on the sound latency buffers, resulting in sounds that are delayed an entire second. The good news is no crashes and sounds actually sound correct.
A few things to note about my setup,
) I am an extreme computer professional, programmer and developer. My Windows XP SP2 installation is incredibly streamlined; I only have 6 services running and all non-essential drivers removed, resulting in only 69MiB commit charge at startup across processes and ~950 threads. Suffice to say, my system is baby-cheek clean, and I aim to keep it that way.
2) I have been using this setup for many years now. I have been using NVIDIA video cards for the past 5+ years, currently I have a GTX280, and all of them have behaved perfectly with my streamlined setup. I even unregister every single one of NVIDIA's DLLs and stop all of their services, and the 3D Settings Per Application and Color Control Features still all work. Suffice to say, NVIDIA's drivers, although a trite on the large side, are written well enough to keep drivers away from OS services (as it should be).
3) My other hardware is not at fault. I have tested the X-Fis against multiple PSUs, different video cards, multiple fresh installations of Windows and more. I don't use utilities to clean my drivers; I do it by hand. I know exactly what's on my system and what I want removed. Though it may be egotistical to state, I'm pretty much knowledgable of every component my system has running.
4) As a result of this knowledge and my desire to keep my system clean, I ONLY HAVE INSTALLED the drivers necessary for my X-Fis to work. I DID install Creative Audio Console, but the application seems to have too many dependencies on OS Services, since it never runs, either reporting that my audio device cannot be found, or the application simply does nothing and a bogus error is written to the event log. I have enabled DCOM to make sure it wasn't dependent on that, and it still does not work. To summarize, yes, I have tried enabling every service I could find that it might depend on, and none worked. Creative Audio Console is, to me, a piece of ill-written software. In comparison to NVIDIA's excellent control panel which works no matter how much stuff I remove, Creative's Audio Console fails.
I do not have the Creative Audio Licensing Engine, I do not have the Creative Audio Control Panel, I do not have the Creative Labs Audio Engine Service, I do not have CMSS or any other OS-level services that normally get installed. Remember people, drivers are NOT TO BE DEPENDENT on OS services; they are protocols defining to the OS how to communicate with the hardware. Any necessity of additional "service" software is way past the acceptable standards of drivers.
5) That being said, I had no issues with stability using older drivers on my PCI X-Fi Fatalty cards. These drivers were dated early 2007, and did not install all of the X-Fi Effects, Utility Effects, 20x Effects, etc. drivers. Mind you I preferred these drivers since they were much simpler to track, as they only had a few .sys files.
As it stands, I want to use my PCI-Express X-Fi Fatalty, but I want to use it without all of Creative's bloat. I want streamlined, driver-only installation that does not NEED external applications to reinforce its stability. Creative, IS THAT POSSIBLE? Can someone, by definition of the Windows Driver Management signature system, just use your drivers alone for stable gaming? If not, you're violating standards and should never have received WDM cert. on any drivers. I highly recommend you do NOT spit back, saying that for proper functionality, performance, stability, etc. you must install all of Creative's supplemental software. These requires are in violation of the ethics behind software drivers and receiving Digital Signature Certification from Microsoft on your drivers.

Infinity7,
I do not want to sound arrogant, but the list of options you provided me with is the stereotypical laundry list of system configuration information for any piece of hardware. I'll address everything though.
) No, I'm not using an NVIDIA chipset. I'm using an ASuS Maximus Extreme, just like you said, which uses the X38 chipset.
2) I'm using Windows XP 32-bit, SP2. I have 2 GiB of memory and do NOT have PAE enabled.
2) I don't have onboard sound; our motherboard has a PCI-E sound card which I do not have installed.
3) I don't have any spyware. I don't browse the web on my system. I know every program running and have no rootkits. Nothing is hiding from me.
4) I don't use antivirus programs. I've been on the internet for 5+ years now and have never needed an antivirus program, since I know when I have a virus and I remove it manually.
5) I have the latest version of DirectX, June 2008 Redistritutable. Note that most of the post DX 9.0c revisions are meant for D3D, and have nothing to do with DSound.
6) I've tried every PCI-E slot I have, including both PCI-E x slots and both PCI-E x6 slots. The card is currently in one of my x6 slots.
7) Any 998+ system is going to have IRQ sharing. Between ACPI BIOSes (more IRQs), Windows XP and drivers, IRQs are rarely in conflict, aside from occasional USB device IRQ sharing. To answer your question, yes, currently both my video card and sound card are sharing IRQ 6. I have done enough work to isolate that IRQ sharing is NOT the issue, though, especially through my testing of the PCI card and the PCI-E card experiencing the same issue.
8) The output sampling rate of games is not always configurable, and never makes a difference. The X-Fi always upsamples everything it gets as it is, though I guess there is some validity to the sampling rates that are streamed into the buffers.
Now, to address the rest of your suggestions I say read my post. I specify that changing acceleration to emulation results in perfect stability and sounds that sound correct, however the relaxed latency results in sounds? that are easily delayed by second. This is unacceptable for gaming, obviously.
As for your ordering of driver installation, it really is through lack of knowledge that people state what order drivers must be installed in. Even NVIDIA's drivers probe for any change through the interfaces they use when the system starts, so any chipset drivers that drastically change the devices in Windows will be detected as changed by other drivers. Be that as it may, I didn't even have the X-Fi in my computer when I installed this latest version of Windows. Only after I had installed everything did I begin to install the Creative Drivers (whilst avoiding all bloatware).
Most importantly, note that I determined when the crashing started occuring with my original PCI version of the card. After I installed the drivers that started including the additional .sys files (X-Fi Effects, 20X effects, etc.) the crashing occured. As far as I know I cannot use older drivers with the PCI-E model, so rolling back to those previous drivers is out of the question.
Lastly, for my system specs,
Motherboard : ASuS Maximus Extreme X38 Chipset, BIOS 0907
CPU : Intel QX9650 (OCed from 3.0GHZ to 3.6GHZ, stable through Orthos testing)
Memory : (2) GiB Corsair Dominator Sticks, 4-4-4-2
Video : eVGA GeForce GTX280 FTW Edition (PCI-Express)
PSU : Thermaltake Toughpower 200W (backed by UPS)
Sound : Creative X-Fi Fatalty PCI / PCI-Express (tried both independently)

Windows 7 64-bit X-Fi PCI-Express Audio console

Hello,
I have a SB PCI-Express Extreme audiocard, and I recently installed Windows 7. I have the basic driver and I do have sound, but the full control suite of software, that included the audio-console and startup-console I had in XP that allowed me full control of my card I do not. Which is rather annoying, because there's much more functionality there.
I tried installing the XP version of the control software, but it started with saying I have newer drivers installed, which made me cancel it as I figured it would be bad to install XP 32-bit drivers on W7 64-bit system.
So, I wanted to know if Creative is working on make W7 64-bit version of the control suite, and if so, whether there is an estimate on when it'll be completed/released? And if not, if someone knows a workaround to get the control suite of XP installed anyway without overwriting the drivers.

That is for your card, sorry about that. Then you can download and install the newest Creative driver on top of this package. You will first unpack Dan K.'s support pack, install it, reboot. Make sure your sound is functioning and that in Device Manager you have Creative X-FI, not high definition multimedia device. Then reboot again, and install the newest Creative Labs driver. Now you can configure your system for number of speakers, tone, bass, EQ, Crystalizer, etc.

How to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7

how to get WHAT U HEAR option for PCI Express X-Fi Titanium sound card and Windows 7 ? Is it on the basic driver? or do you have to install some other software?
jane

You have to install the rest of the software(s) for the sound card. The software is (if it is with the installation CD, though) called "Creative Smart Recorder" or something like that.

Anybody using a PCI-Express to PCI Adapter for your legacy audio hardware?

Anybody using one with success? I dint think there was such a thing until I found this http://www.virtuavia.eu/shop/pci-express-to-pci-adapter-p29855.html.
If you have used one or are researching one for yourself, could you please provide make, model, a link to company website and any comments.
Thanks,
I have an old Echo Gina24 card thats not worth selling and still works great on my PC.

SoundFX suddenly not working with PCI-Express SB Titanium and Windows 7 HP 64

Hi guys,
I bought myself a PCI-Express Sounblaster Titanium bulk last friday.
I downloaded some drivers (sorry, I have no idea what Version?) and an Update to the latest official Version (2.7.0007). When I first tried tu use VoiceFX it worked and I was astonished. Its seemed a real cool gimmick.
Strangely, when I tried it again the next day the VoiceFX buttons where still there under the Audio Config thingie, but my voice did not change anymore when I chose for ex. Robot or Ork. It did not matter what I chose, my voice always stayed normal.
Since then I've deen doing nothing else than to deinstall, reinstall drivers, deleting driver traces, trying again. My worst case was that the VoiceFX did not show at all anymore, my best case was as described above.
I even treid the new beta Drivers.
Does anyone have a solution?
If not, can anyone tell me what dependancies VoiceFX has? Is it enough to install only the drivers or does it need something else as well?
With which Driver Version does it definitely work under Win 7 64?
Oh yeah, I have I microphone which I can switch to Mono or Stereo, does it only work with one of the two? Mine was mostly in Stereo mode. (It comes from a company (dunno which one) thats got nothing to do with computers, games or creative, it's one of those Microphones you connect to your tie).
Thanks@all

Weird... I changed nothing and yeterday it worked...
I just understand this, but what the hell?

Need Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-express Windows XP dri

Hi
It seems that I can't find any drivers for my X-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI-Express card anywhere.
It's deeply frustrating as I can't use my audio card to anything without the proper drivers and software(the audio console).
Is there any way of getting these drivers / software?
Thanks in advance

Hi Orion,
You might want to get in touch with support to enquire about the CD.

Desktop is not defaulting to PCI Express video card

Installed a Nvidia GTX 560TI w/appropriate power supply AFTER disabling secure boot and enabling legacy support. The computer booted to the video card after the second try reboot, drivers successfully installed. Later after attempting to wake the computer from sleep it has defaulted back to the onboard video WITHOUT restarting. Now will not recognize PCI express card.

Hi,
What power supply are your using? The stardard HP 460 watt power supply is insufficient for the NVIDIA 560 TI as it requires two 6 pin PCI-E power connectors.
Go back into the BIOS and make sure that Legacy mode is enabled and Secure boot is disabled. Save the changes and power off. Now power up and see if the system recognizes the discrete video card.
BTW - the PC needs to completely power down and back up before the BIOS will rescan for hardware changes.

Issues related to Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express 1)

Hi, I've recently bought a SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express edition).
Before I address my issue, I'd like to point out that my rig is:
Maximus Extreme (mobo)?
Q6600 (cpu)
ATI4870 (vid card)
4Gigs of DDR3 (ram)
and my OS is Vista Home Edition (32 bit precision)?
And so after physically installing the hardware, I quickly installed everything there was on the CD- this included the drivers available on the CD. After this installation, I restarted then found most recent updates via online sources (creative.com). But even after all of this, I wasn't able to get my microphone to work. Now from my understanding, the jack is shared between Line-In and Microphone and I'm supposed to configure this setting. And so I tried to do that, but my only problem was that I was unable to use any of the available features. After researching for a few hours I found out that I, appearently have to uninstall everything that I had installed and then reinstall everything from online sources (from creative.com-- latest drivers for vista 32 bit). But even then, I still can't use my mic or configure the settings so that I could use microphone instead of Line-In.
Now going back to my actual question, how do I configure the settings so that I could use Microphone instead of Line-In?

ERe: Issues related to Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (PCI Express )[ Bumping.
Almost the same problem here.
Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio edition, Windows 7 64bit.
I downloaded the latest driver from the Creative site, installed it, update with the update manager and then i installed the console.
Issue number : I DONT have your same console. I dont have a "Mode" button, im stuck in Entertainment Mode. I cant control almost nothing and i dont have all the options u have.
Issue number 2: My mic isnt working good. It's VERY low on volume, i cant be heard without the +20db boost (the only boost option i have, i cant boost more) and even with that acti've that's not that loud.
It is still working good with my onboard realtek soundcard. I cant understand what's the problem and how to solve it.
Ah, my headset is a Creative Fatality.

USB PCI-Express Card half working???

I just purchased and installed a SYBA PCI-Express USB 2.0 5 Ports Controller Card (Model SD-PEX-NEC5U) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812186010&Tpk=SD-PEX-NEC5U
I think it's half-way working. I did some researching prior to my purchase and I was under the impression that the Mac Pro (2006) could accept any PCI-express card. I have my Kensington USB bluetooth adapter plugged in (to the internal port) and it powers the adapter light and both my wireless mouse and wireless keyboard work perfectly. However any of the devices I plugged into the rear 4 ports are not working... (ie my Western Digital 1 TB hard drive that has 2 partitions on - one for Time machine backups and one for regular storage)
According to the Syba website, Mac OSX is not listed as a supported OS. The card came with a drivers disc but doesn't have any Syba drivers on it... tons of other manufacturers.
Can anyone offer advice about installing drivers or "adding hardware" (a la Windows)? Again, it's working with my bluetooth... so whats up with my hard drive?

A safe place to check and start your research is OWC.
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/firewire/add-ons-and-hubs/pci-pcmcia-cards
As for MyBook - they can be iffy; if a drive fails, it is built into the case, so I prefer to buy cases with USB/FW and that you can install a drive yourself, even if comes with one.
USB: when there is FireWire and you can easily add SATA PCIe, yes they cost more but then they can drive multiple drives at full performance too.
When you buy generic cards, see if they use the same chipset as found in Sonnet Allegro and others.
Then check
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/ for reports in their upgrade database and articles.
And no, it requires PCIe, but not just any (and even PC with Windows 7, some cards can also be problem).

Hi,
The NVIDIA should work with the PCI-E 1.1 bus that your PC has in it. You might want to search this forum for NVIDIA 650 compatibility issues.

K8T fir upgrade PCI express?

I don't know much about the history of my MB , but I was wondering if there is a later model, Same promise controller. but with A PCI express slot and possibly more memory capacity. I don't want to start a new windows re install
I know that there is a certain risk in windows not being happy with a different mb but , if the raid system is the same , Maybe a worst case senario of a repair install .
Thanks in Advance>

There's a trick for windows XP that make possible to move the entire partition/installation or even the entire hard drive to new hardware:
1) download this file: http://www.wintricks.it/windxp/dload/RE-install-2.rar
2) verify the presence of this files under *:\windows\system32\driver
- Isapnp.sys
- Atapi.sys
- Intelide.sys
- Pciide.sys
- Pciidex.sys
If not available, you can get'em from the downloaded file.
3) import the .reg file (REinstal.reg)
Now you're ready to move the partition to a new hardware, using some partition clone software/utility/tool to clone the entire raid installation onto a new hard drive, naturally the size of the new hdd should be enough to contain the entire partition
BTW, if i'm not wrong, this trick can work only on eide/pata or in sata emulating eide/ata, so I guess no SATA AHCI (or advanced features) for now: you should clean install with slipstreamed drivers (like with nlite) to use those features. Or better clean install Windows 7 that's better.

Need Urgent Help : Using VIVADO Design Suite for PCI Express 3.0, 8 lane, and AXI Interfaces for Video Processing

My scenario is as follows :-
1) I am building a Image Processing Application and using VIVADO HLS for that.
2) I have synthesized my design using VIVADO HLS, and export it as IP-XACT format.
3) I have imported it in VIVADO Design Suite, and added to the IP catalog, in a new project created.
4) Since I am building an image processing pipeline, I am using AXI Stream interfaces, 1 input stream, and 1 output stream, and mentioned that in the HLS tool itself..
5) I have a Virtex 7 690T FPGA, and have accordingly chosen the board throughout the HLS process, and the project.
6) We want to use a PCI Express 3.0, through DMA access to the CPU.
7) Now I am stuck here regarding how to proceed forward, I have gone through most of the Xilinx documentation, but am still not clear about what to do from here on.
8) There are these 3 variables for me, AXI Stream Interface, DMA, PCI Express 3.0, all I have right now is the IP of the Image Processing pipeline that I generated through VIVADO HLS.
9) Also at a later stage we would like to stream in Video, and process it through our image processing pipeline.
Please help me with an overview of steps that I need to follow to get my design together and working on a real FPGA hardware with my Computer(windows OS), as in what Xilinx IP blocks do I need to use, how will I be able to exploit the maximum bandwidth from the PCI Express Interface in my specific case of send image through a stream, what tools will I need to use at every stage.
I would be highly grateful if you guys can help me, we have a dealine to meet.
Please let me know if we need any extra information.
