Vista Blue Screen after PC Suite 6.83 Install

After installing PC Suite 6.83 vista continuously blue screens during boot. The only way I have found to recover the system is to user the system restore.
The blue screen looks like the system is trying to load a new driver supplied with PC suite 6.83 but fails with a blue screen.
I'm using Vista Ultimate.. anybody actually got PC suite 6.83 on vista working or have any suggestions?

"Just take a look to the discussions board... 6.83 is a bug! It does not work well. For Vista, you must wait for 6.84..."
6.83 was written for and tested in Vista. I'm running it without any problems whatsoever.
".. or another new version. If possible, use 6.82, because there is no problem with that version."
6.82 didn't work properly in Vista, which is why we had 6.83.

  • Vista Blue Screen after Successful Boot Camp installation (32 and 64 bit)

    OK so there are a number of people with issues relating to the BSoD after a successful (or not) implemetation of Bot Camp and Windows XP and/or Vista. One of the identified problems relates to the NVIDIA GEforce 9600m GT display driver which crashes out AFTER windows performs its update routine.
    Having removed and installed the partition (to ensure a clean install each time), the inescapable conclusion is that the NVIDIA driver is to blame for the crash dump, but it is one of the many MS updates that is the root cause of the failure. If you do a clean install of Vista 32 or 64 Ultimate and install the Boot Camp 2.1 (build 1256) and DO NOT allow updates, the system is not only stable, it runs like a train!
    I have Contacted AppleCare about this (as my new MBP is only a few days old) and they have not even heard of the problems. NVIDIA have obviously got issues with something as the driver has been updated to a BETA on their web site, but this will not work on a Mac as it cannot seem to find the hardware to allow the update to complete.
    If (like me) you have bought an MBP for support issues for both Mac and Windows users, this is a showstopper and one that is about to cause me to ask for my money back. So far, the nice shiny and new MBP is back in its box pending a 140 mile trip back to Exeter from whence it came.
    SHARK!

    Boot Camp was a response to public challenges at the time to see who could find how to install Windows on a Mac - which is totally okay thing.
    Then you want Apple to do more than any normal PC vendor selling a laptop where people have to do things like deal with BIOS, drivers and all the things you have had to deal with, for Windows.
    I'm not disagreeing, let alone arguing, I agree that hardware abstraction layer type stuff Apple would need to do. But I don't think Apple needs to do more than get Windows installed. Drivers, AV, and all the stuff that comes with Windows doesn't change. But it should not BSOD when you install something you are told you need.
    I wouldn't be surprised though to see Windows 7 eventually support Apple hardware out of the box so to speak.
    Cookie cutter answers are part of today's customer experience "level one" is no level at all, but a lot of times - and it takes a lot of work - to translate feedback and problems into "cook book" before you get to the troubleshooting (level 2 and above).
    Which is why I read sites like MacIntouch; subscribe to MacFixit (tons of articles on a CD along with shareware). And books.
    Nvidia has terrible drivers in OS X on the Mac Pro (workstation) while ATI has had very good drivers and OpenGL support.
    I prefer to have more choice and freedom when it comes to drivers. As for engineering and how things get qualified (use to see even SCSI hard drives had to be qualified for both the OS; the controller to be used; driver version; firmware; etc).
    What I see is the first shipped BIOS/EFI firmware on any device or system is not the one you want.
    Back in the 70's I was introduced to "bleeding edge" but we would get premiere on-site support if we were willing to install, adopt, some new IBM service, software/hardware. And sometimes we were there on Sunday on holiday weekends.
    One person just could NOT after doing everything under the sun, get Adobe CS4 to install on their new $5000 Mac Pro 2009. Got a new system, worked perfectly.
    In 2008 Early Mac Pro, most all systems would freeze on wake from sleep. Took two months before an EFI update was issued that cured the problem. There is/was also a problem with "inrush current" and PSU.
    I had Blue Screen with Vista. Repeatedly.
    At first I thought it was a new MICROSOFT 4000 keyboard.
    Later I wondered if it was my Apple OEM Nvida 7300GT (and some are failing but it worked in OS X) so I bought 2nd, a PC 8600GTS.
    And pull 3rd party PCI Express controllers (FW800, SATA 1x, SATA 8x cards).
    Came away and thought "oh, it was the 3rd party card" when that seemed to work.
    Around the same time I had bought a new WD Caviar 750GB SATA drive.
    It was that drive that would cause problems with Vista after the install.
    I thought it was something in Microsoft Windows Update that was causing my personal ****, not my equipment. And MS for their drivers. Somebody else's.
    And mind you, I would go through install half a dozen times, try installing Boot Camp before updates, after updates, not at all, add AV software.
    I finally -- after a full year -- learned a lot (don't learn from things just working and I still say it has always been "Plug and Pray" PnP ) things work. I know the frustration and aggravation and the wish that things were different somehow.
    The BSODs that I got were not from Apple Boot Camp. I even ran my system w/o Boot Camp for six months. And this time, with Win7, everything worked fine, wake, sleep, networking, no need for Apple drivers. At all.
    I hang out on a forum where people build their own, X58 board, Intel Core i7, eVGA graphics. And how to get even DDR3 to work, and then how to get the most out of and push it to the extreme, then throttle back a notch.
    The nice thing about that is you learn from it, like you do from racing and sports, to build a better mousetrap.
    Nvidia is bleeding. Even as they and ATI want to stay on leading edge. Intel is contracting (even as they have their best cpu technology ever coming out) and costs that should go into R&D may be harder to "justify" or all the prototype programmers engineers and testing labs. Everything is more commoditized than ever.
    Bottom line: I have Leopard 10.5.6. It has Boot Camp 2.1.2 version, later than the 2.1 download. And there has not been a single update posted online. But my original Leopard DVD 10.5.0 has the SAME contents packaged as 2.0 as were in the 1.4 Beta. I spend $129 for a new DVD to get the latest drivers. Make sense?? of course not.
    Oh, and my Mac with 64-bit hardware, cpu, the EFI BIOS is 32-bit so no official support from Apple to install BC 2.1.2 or use Vista 64-bit. Snow Leopard will be 64-bit kernel, require and enforce 64-bit drivers. Should be interesting. Because technically, and logic, would say I don't have a true 64-bit BIOS environment.
    Got an iMac? not supported with 64-bit. MacBook 2008 had 64-bit support, but not the "Late 2008" there you need MacBook Pro. And yet everyone wants to address more than 2GB (Apple EFI32 allows access to 3.3GB on some, 1.9GB on others, and in my Mac Pro? limited to 1.9GB memory in Windows.... so you know I don't want to run a Xeon workstation in Windows 32-bit.

  • Security Suite Blue Screen after reboot

    I am a new customer for verizon fios and have installed/uninstalled the security suite several times.  I am using Windows XP.  I get the blue screen after reboot no matter what I do.  It goes away as soon as I uinstall or choose last known good windows install (using F8 key during reboot).  Is there a known issue. 

    #1 On the blue screen, was their text?
    #2 If so, what did it say?
    #3 Make sure that you do have another software firewall installed (other than one built into Windows).
    b) But the one in Windows, you should disable.
    #4 Make sure that you do have another anti-virus program installed.

  • Blue screen after Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered

    I get a PAGEFAULT_IN_NONPAGEDAREA blue screen after I encounter multiple Error 37: a bad filename or volume was encountered.
    Anyone encounter this issue and how to you send info to apple for them to fix their buggy code?
    Their support of code which will run bug-free on vista seems to be lacking (I understand there are two parties to this marriage).
    Help anyone?

    I noticed a few days ago that (at least on my box) Quicktime seems to have "issues" with >31 characters anywhere in the file path.
    Is it possible that you have some folder along the way to your movie that has more than 31 charaters?
    Shorten if necessary and see if that works.

  • My Macbook will not boot the operating system.  It just goes to a blue screen after the apple logo and the spinning wheel goes off.  I took the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the old mac os disk.

    My macbook will not boot.  It goes to a blue screen after the logo and wheel goes off.  I have taken the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM.  I have the the original os disk but have not put it in for fear of losing un backed op data.
    Thanks
    Rich

    You won't lose any data unless you erase your hard drive.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c"key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it.When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've selected the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.

  • Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V Cluster, VM blue screens after migration between nodes.

    I currently have a two node Server 2012 R2 Hyper-v Cluster (fully patched) with a Windows Server 2012 R2 Iscsi target.
    The VMs run fine all day long, but when I try to do a live/quick migration the VM blue screens after about 20 minutes. The blue reports back about a “Critical_Structure_Corruption”.
    I’m being to think it might be down to CPU, as one system has an E-2640v2 and the other one has an E5-2670v3. Should I be able to migrate between these two systems with these type of CPU?
    Tim

    Sorry Tim, is that all 50 blue screen if live migrated?
    Are they all on the latest integration services? Does a cluster validation complete successfully? Are the hosts patched to the same level?
    The fact that if you power them off then migrate them and they boot fine, does point to a processor incompatibility and the memory BIN file is not accepted on the new host.
    Bit of a long shot but the only other thing I can think of off the top of my head if the compatibility option is checked, is checking the location of the BIN file when the VM is running to make sure its in the same place as the VHD\VHDX in the
    CSV storage where the VM is located and not on the local host somewhere like C:\program data\.... that is stopping it being migrated to the new host when the VM is live migrated.
    Kind Regards

  • Is anyone else experiencing their phone randomly locking up and going to a blue screen after the most recent update?

    iPhone 5s Random Blue Screen after last Update

    I have had 9 iOS devices either just show the apple log and go black or a dead battery even thou they were on the chargers for hours.
    I brought them to the Apple store.  No one could give me an answer as to why it did it.  All you have to do to fix it is do this:
    To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
    Turn off your device and leave it off.
    Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
    Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. ...
    When you see this screen, release the Home button.
    From the consensus of the people in my office that did the iOS 8.3 update.  The ones that did the update while the iPhone or iPad was on a charger are not experiancing any issues.  The ones that did the update without being on a charger are the ones experianceing the issues at hand.

    I have constant blue screen after windows logo and i have updated all drivers. i was upset the blue screen didn't go away and i did the factory reset.

I updated all drivers and i noticed every time i update the ati and intel driver it will go blue screen after windows logo. after i uninstall it at in safe mode it can load normally. My question is there any solution for my graphic card or is it already damaged? or any other hardware problem? please because i have to use high graphic as i use photoshop

  • Thinkpad X300 with windows xp sp2 gets blue screen after standby.

    We have a Thinkpad X300 (with windows xp sp2) gets blue screen after standby. I mean after you close the lid then open it. Anyone has see this kind of behave before?
    Thanks,

    I have found the solution to this problem - hope you are still watching the thread.
    Express install in parallels seems to be the culprit. Do a custom install instead and set your own virtual hard disk size. I set mine to 12 Gb (12000 Mb)and made it a fixed size instead of "growing" or whatever the heck parallels calls it. I also chose shared network instead of "bridged" (I read that someone else had identified this as part of the problem).
    After making those changes it worked like a charm.

    Ok so i got this laptop in a few days ago here are the problems and the things i have tried. This laptop when it came to me did not have a hard drive, so obviously no OS. Upon installing a hard drive then trying to load Yosemite from a USB stick, I turn mac on, sleep light will blink 5 times then boot, Will come to normal gray screen then apple logo, will then load the OS install, but go straight to a blue screen with vertical lines. Tried different hard drive, tried different RAM sizes and speeds, tried different OS, tried CD instead. Have done numerous PRAM and SMC resets. trying Safe mode gets me a panic cpu 4 caller error then restarts. I have tried using a hard drive that had an OS already installed and will go straight to blue screen after loading. I have tried fsck -fy in single user mode. I do get that disk2s3 is write protected in single user mode, but im pretty sure that its the OS disk. I do not see a second hard drive in single user mode but i believe that because its not partitioned yet. Any ideas community?

    Tried doing OS X lion by CD now, and will only get half way through load bar before the apple logo and loading bar disappears and then it will sit at a gray screen.

  • Blue Screen after clean reinstall snow leopard

    I have a mid 2011 that came with Snow Leopard and disks.  I upgraded from there to Lion - then whatever came next and to Mavericks and finally Yosemite, which was a nightmare for me. I did not use disks of any of the rest.  So I just decided to take my disks and go back to Snow Leopard.  I did this and it asked to go to disk utility and repair both the HD and Permissions.  It came out ok, but there was an instance where looking at the list in HD repair, I saw Suid File System Library Core was moved and cannot be repaired. I went ahead and erased the Hard Drive. Then closed out and installed Snow Leopard. I'm not sure I did it right because I had to rename the new start up disk and typed in unnamed 1.
    after that I was able to start up to Snow Leopard. It worked fine until I tried to download all the updates. Then it didn't seem to restart, but just went to the sign in screen.  So I had to keep shutting down and turning it back on. No updates. One of times I started up, I got the blue screen after the apple and gray screen.
    Also on start up the apple comes up without the chime. Last night I got some instructions from a similar situation and tried to use my disk to a clean reinstall all over.  It didn't work, still the blue screen. (it does fine in safemode.)
    I need help to get this mac running.  If someone can help me......

    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
