Problems deploying Windows 7 x64 computers with more than 8GB RAM

SCCM 2012 R2 CU1
Windows 7 x64
We have a weird problem after upgrading from SP1 to R2 CU1. We have built a Windows 7 64 bit image with the latest updates (currently September 2014 updates). It deploys fine to all computers. But after some days – don’t know exactly – guess after 4-7 days
- we start getting errors on computers with more than 8 GB of RAM. The errors just start out of the blue. We didn't change TS, image or driver package.
The error shows in 3 different ways – depending of the computer model.
1) BSOD – STOP 0x000000F4. Disk error.
2) Task Sequence error 0x87D00269 when installing the first Application in TS. The error seems to have something to do with Management Point not found.
3) Task Sequence simply stops after installing CMclient. No errors - it simply stops.
For instance we get the BSOD on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M93p. But on the ThinkCentre M83 we get the TS error 0x87D00269. M93p and M83 uses the same driver package. They consequently  fail every time after the error has begun. If we reduce (remove physically)
the memory to max. 8GB of RAM, they successfully run the Task Sequence.  We get the above errors on both Lenovo and HP machines with more than 8GB. 
I made a copy of the production TS and started testing. I created a new driver package for M93p/M83. It contains only the NIC drivers. Now M93p an M83 successfully finishes the TS. Adding sata or chipset or MEI/SOL drivers to the package I get the 0x87D00269
error on both m93p and M83. At least not the BSOD on the M93p ;-)
Tried setting  SMSTSMPListRequestTimeout to 180 in the TS. Also tried putting in a 5 minute break before installing the first Application in the TS. Also tried putting in SMSMP=mp1.mydomain in the installation properties for the CMclient. It is still
the same problem.
Investigating the smsts.log on a computer with the 0x87D00269 error.

Hopefully this is a bug in translating the errorcodes? Just to be sure I checked all the SCCM serviceaccounts and none of them have expired passwords.  And again why only on computers with more than 8GB RAM.
Anyone else had problems rolling computers with more than 8GB og RAM?
Why does this happens after a few days? To begin with, it runs just perfect and then starts failing on all machines with more than 8GB. Without a change in TS, image and driverpackage. We have seen this pattern for the last 3 month after
updating our image with the latest Windows Updates. It all started after updating from SP1 to R2 CU1.
Why does it only affect machines with more than 8GB RAM?
How to get rid of the 0x87D00269 error?
Seems to be somehow related to driver installation mechanism in SCCM in combination with Windows 7 64 bit, +8GB RAM and SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 or perhaps just R2.
Any help or hints would be appreciated!
Thanks
Anders

We have the same workaround, using a x64 boot image resolved all our issues with WinPE 5.0.
Machines with >4GB of RAM
Lenovo ThinkPad T540p failed applying drivers with 80040005
Black screen/white cursor issues intermittently
No updates from Microsoft, they are still looking through the logs, but we have updated our boot images and all is well now. Our case it still open with Microsoft, they are researching the logs.

  • Improve performance on computers with more than 1 GB RAM (Photoshop CS2)

    Photoshop CS2 uses complex memory management procedures.

    Hi,
    1 to 8 GB for process is little on the higher side :) Y don't you try to "page" it up like windows.. Serialize the memory intensive objects into a folder and load them (unserialize) when they are required...
    Just a suggestion and not exactly answering your qn. ..But just thought will post this comment ... Hope it gives some insight..

  • GeForce 7300 GT with more than 2GB RAM?

    I had a lot of crashes with my MP and had original 2x512MB & Kingston's 2x1GB installed.
    I contacted Kingston's support when Rember caused kernel panic every time I tried to test memory with it.
    They said that it is "known issue" that 7300gt does not work with current drivers with openGL applications and more than 2GB memory installed.
    But my MP kept having kernel panics with rember (and with lots of other applications)without any openGL involved. I even ran Rember with Finder closed.
    With only 2x512 or only 2x1 installed everything seems to be fine, except that there's not enough memory to use FCS efficiently.
    Anybody had same problems?
    Is this really "known issue"?
    If it is, when is solution available?
    MP+GF7300gt have been on the market over half a year now.
    Any links and references would be appreciated.
    I didn't find anything from apple's website and will be calling apple's support tomorrow...

    I have 4 GBs installed in my Mac Pro w/7300 card. No problems whatsoever.
    For best performance from quad-channel interleaving you may want to install either six additional 512 MB DIMMs (four in Riser A and four in Riser B) or two more 512 MB DIMMs (in Riser A) and four 1 GB DIMMs (in Riser B.)
    In your current configuration I believe you should have two 512 MB DIMMs in Riser A and two 1 GB DIMMs in Riser B.

  • Successful install of 8.1.7 on Solaris 8 with more than 256Mb RAM

    To all who have struggled with this one, like me. You owe me a bottle of Rogaine.... but I will accept a bottle of Jack instead.
    It appears that the kernel parameters published in the Install Guide are only good for Solaris 8 with up to 256Mb RAM
    If dbassist craters at around 80% in OUI with a "Can't connect to Oracle" and you have more than 256Mb on board
    DOUBLE the kernel parameters !!!
    shmmni = 200
    shmseg = 20
    semmns = 400
    semmni = 200
    semmls =200
    semopm =200
    touch /reconfigure (they don't mention that in the Guide)
    reboot
    If someone out there can isolate which actual damn kernel parameter is the culprit, I will gladly share some Jack with you.
    Otherwise an email to [email protected] with a comment or three will suffice.
    Cheers

    Sorry to ask a dumb question, but want to be precise, whn you say touch/reconfigure, do you mean touch system.
    WHat is the reconfigure?

  • P67A-GD65B3 won't post with more than 2 RAM sticks/P

    Issue is as stated.  On this board the dimm slots are listed as 1,2,3,4 (as marked on motherboard).  The computer will consistently power cycle (not even post) when RAM is in any dual channel configuration.  I've tried 4 sticks of memory (2 separate orders of 2x4GB).  All RAM sticks work in non-dual channel mode.  I've modified the voltage to 1.65.  I've verified the timings are correct at 8-8-8-24.  I've inserted 1 stick at a time, let boot all the way to windows, and inserted the next stick.  I tried the inserting 1 at a time numerous different ways.  Anything else I may have missed?  If not, I guess its RMA time.

    Quote
    2 separate orders of 2x4GB
    Check with G.Skill. I believe they only warranty & suggest one kit being installed. Differences in batches are noted as the excuse if memory serves me. UEFI/BIOS version 1.D was released by MSI to accomodate the non standard SPD profile programming, since a newer one, 1.E is installed, it rules a problem there out. It's also possible the RAM requires X.M.P. to be enabled to make them work correctly. Again, G.Skill is going to be the best source for advice on how to get their product to work.

  • Windows Phone Hub with more than 2 sections causes ArgumentException when collapsing any section

    Hi there,
    I'm working on a Universal app which is using a Hub control to display different sections.
    On startup, I want to hide some of the sections. Using a button, I want to toggle between the visible sections using a binding property on the Visibility property (Handled in the ViewModel). In my ViewModel I have 2 boolean properties that are bound to the
    corresponding sections and are converted to Visibility using a BooleanToVisibilityConverter
    <Hub>
    <HubSection>
    <DataTemplate>
    <Button Content="Test" Command="{Binding SwitchVisibilityCommand}"/>
    </DataTemplate>
    </HubSection>
    <HubSection x:Name="First" Header="Test1A" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=pageRoot,
    Path=DataContext.FirstVisibleProperty, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BooleanToVisibilityConverter} }"/>
    <HubSection x:Name="Second" Header="Test1B" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=pageRoot,
    Path=DataContext.SecondVisibleProperty, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BooleanToVisibilityConverter} }"/>
    <HubSection x:Name="Third" Header="Test2A" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=pageRoot,
    Path=DataContext.ThirdVisibleProperty, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BooleanToVisibilityConverter} }"/>
    <HubSection x:Name="Fourth" Header="Test2B" Visibility="{Binding ElementName=pageRoot,
    Path=DataContext.FourthVisibleProperty, Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=BooleanToVisibilityConverter} }"/>
    </Hub>
    public class MainPageViewModel : ViewModel, IMainPageViewModel
    private bool firstVisibleProperty;
    private bool secondVisibleProperty;
    public MainPageViewModel()
    FirstVisibleProperty = true;
    SecondVisibleProperty = false;
    SwitchVisibilityCommand = new DelegateCommand(ExecuteCommand);
    private void ExecuteCommand()
    FirstVisibleProperty = !FirstVisibleProperty;
    SecondVisibleProperty = !SecondVisibleProperty;
    public bool FirstVisibleProperty
    get { return firstVisibleProperty; }
    set
    firstVisibleProperty = value;
    OnPropertyChanged(() => FirstVisibleProperty);
    public bool SecondVisibleProperty
    get { return secondVisibleProperty; }
    set
    secondVisibleProperty = value;
    OnPropertyChanged(() => SecondVisibleProperty);
    public DelegateCommand SwitchVisibilityCommand { get; set; }
    This setup is working fine on Windows, but in Windows Phone I get an unhandled exception (ArgumentException with the message ´Value does not fall within the expected range.´). 
    When I reduce the amount of hubsections to two, one that is visible and one that is collapsed, everything is working fine again. When I use multiple sections that all use the the same visibility property no exception is thrown
    When I set both properties to true in the viewmodel, also no exception is thrown.
    I've also tried the following (Without succes):
    - change my boolean properties to Visibility properties
    - use different boolean properties for each of the sections
    I do not understand why this exception is thrown and the exception itself is to vague to give any useful information
    How can I resolve this error??

  • Mac Pro 2.66 crashing with more than 2GB ram

    I curently have a base config of 1GB ram (2 512MB chips), the systems runs fine, I then added memory in various configs and it always kernel panics when I exceed 2 GB. System runs fine until i try something memory intensive like Aperture or Photoshop.
    tried
    4 x 512MB chips (2GB) = perfect
    6 X 512MB chips (3GB) = crash
    2 x 512MB and 2 x 2GB (5GB) = crash
    2 X 2GB (4GB) = crash
    I have tried only riser 1, still crashes even with only the 4GB running. All memory is genuine apple and passes the hardtest CD.
    Any help much appreciated
    cheers

    Agreed.
    If you cannont get the memory to fail when only one or two pairs is in a given riser then it will be very difficult to diagnose and you'd have to suspect either a riser or mainboard problem.
    You do know that memtest will only test up to 2GB unless you buy the $0.99 version 4.14 though right? Lower versions shouldn't KP though, should just allocate 2GB and test.
    If it fails in both the following combinations:
    Riser A - 2x 512
    Riser B - 2x512, 2x 512
    Riser A - 2x 512, 2x 512
    Riser B - 2x512
    then I suppose I'd be suspecting hardware failure on the motherboard. BY the way, both risers boards are identical, you can swap Riser A for Riser B and still have a working system if it helps in your tests.
    I just went through the same thing, fortunately I had only 2 pairs (2x1GB) to work with...so I labelled the chips ABCD and worked the combinations through the risers A and B to determine that failure followed a given FBDIMM....after I'd done all this and found the suspected FBDIMM, I powered up the machine with the cover off for a change and found the red lights...did I feel silly then

  • Windows 2008 not allocating more than 8GB of memory to all processes

    Hi,
    We have a web server with windows 2008 R2 on Amazon-EC2. Recently we have upgraded our server from one instance type to a higher one. New one has around 68GB of memory. How ever overall allocation of memory is not going above 8GB.
    When I looked at w3wp in process explorer, I have observed "\KernelObjects\MaximumCommitCondition" and "KernelObjects\LowMemoryCondition" kernel events. I could not understand the reason for "low memory" events in spite
    of the 60GB of available memory. 
    At any point of time %committedBytesInUse counter is showing only 5%.
    Can someone help me in making me understand on what is going wrong here?

  • No POST with more than 2 RAM slots?

    Hello community! Yuu are my last hope.
    I recenly purchased the MSI X99S and tried to install 4x4GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4, but it wont work. It does work with only 2 Sticks. I verified that the RAM is not broken, though. I also used the required quad-channel DIMM-Slots. Anyone else having this problem and a potential fix? Currently I can only use 8 GB.

    Hello! Thank you for the answer. I have the X99s SLI Plus Motherboard. I tried it and the result is, that my PC only boots when the RAM is inserted in DIMM 1 and 3. Is it supposed to work in every single slot? Because it doesnt even work if I put one each in DIMM 1-4.

  • Error while running spatial queries on a table with more than one geometry.

    Hello,
    I'm using GeoServer with Oracle Spatial database, and this is a second time I run into some problems because we use tables with more than one geometry.
    When GeoServer renders objects with more than one geometry on the map, it creates a query where it asks for objects which one of the two geometries interacts with the query window. This type of query always fails with "End of TNS data channel" error.
    We are running Oracle Standard 11.1.0.7.0.
    Here is a small script to demonstrate the error. Could anyone confirm that they also have this type of error? Or suggest a fix?
    What this script does:
    1. Create table object1 with two geometry columns, geom1, geom2.
    2. Create metadata (projected coordinate system).
    3. Insert a row.
    4. Create spacial indices on both columns.
    5. Run a SDO_RELATE query on one column. Everything is fine.
    6. Run a SDO_RELATE query on both columns. ERROR: "End of TNS data channel"
    7. Clean.

    This error appears in GeoServer and SQLPLUS.
    I have set up a completly new database installation to test this error and everything works fine. I tried it again on the previous database but I still get the same error. I also tried to restart the database, but with no luck, the error is still there. I geuss something is wrong with the database installation.
    Anyone knows what could cause an error like this "End of TNS data channel"?

  • Problem with closing other firefox windows when window in use has more than 1 tab open

    If I have multiple firefox windows open, and the one that I am using has more than one tab open, when I try to close one of the windows that I am not using by hovering over the firefox icon on the taskbar, then clicking the cross on the other windows, a message appears asking me if I want to close a window with more than one tab open. This means that firefox is trying to close the window that I'm using, not the one I'm trying to close. Please note this only happens when I hover over the icon on the taskbar then click the cross for the window I want to close. If I open the window properly, then click the cross on the window itself, it works fine.
    Just wanted to know if anyone else has this problem, and if they do, then mozilla should probably fix it in their next update, it's getting really annoying now

    I can't find a bug on file for this on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ (although there are many taskbar-related issues under review).
    (1) Just to confirm, do you both have "Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar" turned off here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Tabs
    (2) Have you tried disabling Firefox use of hardware graphics acceleration?
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, do you notice any changes?

  • Problem with more than one item in a track

    DVDSP 4.0.2 / OSX.4.2 I've built a DVD with several tracks. In each track I've placed several .m2v files, one after another. Finished build plays fine on my Mac and on one of my stand alone DVD players. But on another stand alone (Sony DVP-S360) something very odd happens. DVD begins to play just fine, but whenever it encounters a track with more than one source file, it will play until it gets to the spot in the program where the second source file is in the track and then it hangs and won't do anything. I'm just curious if anyone has any insight into this problem. Is it a DVDSP conflict thing with certain players? Or is this Sony player just not capable of playing a DVD built this way? Thanks.

    This page here:
    http://www.videohelp.com/dvdplayers.php?DVDnameid=428&Search=Search&
    has someone talking about finally getting burned DVDs to work, which suggests they previously had problems. I can't think why the track would not seem like continuous video, as if it had always been that way. Our Sony DVD player at work seems sensitive to higher data rates. What data rate did you use?
