This was related to dtsoftbus01.sys  which is part of your virtual drive software (either Alcohol120 or Daemon tools, etc)  I would remove it and replace with the following.
ALSO AND IMPORTANT.  You need to update to SP-1 ASAP as there are many bugfixes that you need.
Service pack 1 Update.
http://windows.microsoft.com/installwindows7sp1
Learn how to install Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/learn-how-to-install-windows-7-service-pack-1-sp1
Additional Resources:

http://windows.microsoft.com/troubleshootwindows7sp1
Please remove any CD visualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%.
They use a driver, found in your dmp, called sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs.
Use this SPTD uninstaller DuplexSecure
 http://www.duplexsecure.com/downloads
when you're done you can use this Freeware:
MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM (MagicDisc) in its place
http://www.magiciso.com/download.htm
Don't forget to turn off verifier by typing verifier /reset from an elevated command prompt

  • Windows 8.1 BSOD problem

    Hello i have an ASUS S400 CA ultrabook and my BSOD problems have started after automated upgrade from windows 8 to windows 8.1 Here is the latest dump file. BSOD problem says "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL(athw8x.sys)"
    I have downloaded driver from the ASUS website but the problem remains unsolved. Please, give me some advice, thank you in advance 
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/79149617/042314-24390-01.dmp

    Hi,
    The attached DMP file is of the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) bug check.
    This indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory at a process IRQL that was too high.
    A driver tried to access an address that is pageable (or that is completely invalid) while the IRQL was too high. This bug check is usually caused by drivers that have used improper addresses.

    ^^ athwbx.sys is the Qualcomm Atheros AR9485WB-EG Wireless Network Adapter. In every case I've dealt with this driver, the manufacturer never actually had the latest version, and downloading this driver always helped -
    http://www.atheros.cz/atheros-wireless-download.php?chipset=61&system=7
    ^^ Atheros' website can be kind of confusing to say the very least, so let me know if you need help downloading it.

  • Having BSOD problem

    Hi Microsoft professional team,
    I am using Windows  8.1 pro and I keep having the BSOD problem everyday. I uploaded the memory dump file to OneDrive.
    Can you give me a hand on this to find out where the problem is?
    Many Thx.

  • Z87 MPOWER MAX - Killer E2200 BSOD problem on Win 8.1

    Hello all!
    I have a BSOD problem on win 8.1 with the mentioned motherboard . specifically with the Killer E2200  e22w8x64.sys driver.
    No matter where I get the driver for it (MSI installation DVD, killer gaming homepage...) I still have the problem. And it was a bit hard to identify this driver, After 20-30 BSOD-s a day I had to start windows driver verifier to realize wich driver is failing. Is anybody else experiencing this problem? Is there any solution to this, maybe a driver under development?
    I couldn't find the option to attach something ( because extarnal links are not allowed apparently (would have been to skydrive) ), I would have attached a miniDump which has the referrence to this driver.
    Thank You.
    Regards,
    Takács Attila

    Be waware that your system is a dual cahnnel one and a three stick (triple channel) setup is not optimal. Also it is meant for old X58 systems and most likely 1.65v. Clear cmos and retry with just two sticks.

  • [SOLVED] GNOME 3.8 annoying window resize problem

    Hello all fellow early-adopters :-)
    A very annoying quirk I've noticed, moving from GNOME 3.6 to 3.8, is that it no longer remembers, nor retains, the size/positions I set for many of my application windows. For example, my mail client (Evolution) is sized to fill most of my screen (centrally), with Empathy and Skype as long narrow windows on both sides - giving me a nice, broad "communications" overview on that particular desktop (with dev tools etc open on others).
    On 3.6, this layout was retained during my session, as well as next time I started these apps up.
    In GNOME 3.8, not only does it insist that these windows are always started as small little bunched-up windows that I need to resize, but every time a window displays a notification/warning (message in internal yellow bar inside the window - such as loss of internet connection, mail retrieval failure etc) it resizes the windows spontaneously to a stupid, small size that overlays the other windows. This is driving me crazy!
    Where can I learn a bit more about how window sizing / positioning works in GNOME 3.8, or is it finally time to switch to awesome wm? I want to love GNOME 3.8, I really do. It's so slick, but so... unpolished.
    I want to dig in an assist with problems like these, but I need some pointers to some background material first to understand the problem. Is it the window manager? Is it the app?
    ** UPDATE: Doing a full system upgrade, as of May 18, 2013, has resolved this annoying problem. My windows now stay where they belong, and start with the same size they were closed with. GNOME is now pleasant to use again :-)

    I really like GNOME 3.x though (and would like to understand the windowing behaviour), but if the annoying quirks are insurmountable, I will happily switch.
    Man I love GNOME 3.x. I admire the courage they had to change, basically, everything, and I find myself more productive with my GNOME 3 Arch box than with my good ol' Slackware KDE 4 box. I just hate those bugs - for example I filed a task in their bugtracker for this window resize problem I have with gedit. If it's a love/hate relationship, I think it's marriage ^_^
    With the 3.8 upgrade, deadbeef was having a similar problem with window size/position. I just recompiled it against the latest GTK+3 package upgrade (that came after the 'big upgrade' here on Arch) and it was fixed. But not with gedit

    Man I really hope this gets fixed soon, because aside from this one incredibly annoying issue I am loving gnome 3.8.
    I get the feeling gnome badly needs more beta testers, sizable regressions like this in "stable" releases happen way too often sad.
    I get the exact same feeling. Well bugs exist everywhere, there's no denying. But I think it would be wiser to 'alternate' the nature of each major stable release - one focusing on new features and one focusing on fixing bugs. For example if the only new features in GNOME 3.10 were the AppsFolder full implementation and the introduction of gnome-calendar, and the rest of the development cicle being devoted to fix bugs, I'd be more than happy.
    Like Fedora and Ubuntu, the fixed 6-month release cycle colaborates with the bugs. They don't do like Debian or Slackware which are released 'when they are ready'.
    EDIT: fout (yet) another bug. At least with facebook chat (haven't tested with other telepathy plugins) the buddy tray icon appear duplicate. Anybody with the same issue?

  • Connecting iPod Nano 8GB video model to Windows 2k problems

    Hello!
    I hope someone can help, I had a MacBook that died and now I need to move our 4 iPods to the windows 2k environment. When you plug in the iPod it says that it needs to be converted to Windows, not problem, I click "OK" then iTunes starts and gives me the following message:
    The iPod "IPOD2" cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 7.6 or later.
    Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.
    Ther is NO 7.6 for Windows 2K? Any help could be appreciated.
    I have the latest version for W2K, and I have 1 Nano that has syncd fine. Anyone have any ideas, I have searched and tried all the tech docs I could find to no avail. The iPod is visible in "My Computer" but when you click on it it asks if I want to format it, worried about doing that. Can't find any instructions on resetting the iPod back to factory/out of the box WITHOUT ITUNES! that may help!
    Thanks,
    John

    Ther is NO 7.6 for Windows 2K?
    I'm afraid not. The last version of iTunes for Windows compatible with Windows 2000 was 7.3.2:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes732forwindows2000.html
    ... and the third generation (video) nanos require at least iTunes 7.4.x (and 7.6 is currently recommended).

  • WINDOWS INSTALLER PROBLEM WITH DESKTOP MANAGER

    Please help!! I am a user of the Blackberry Desk Top Manager, running under Windows XP Service Pack 4.5. I recently downloaded the latest version of Desk Top Manager and I am getting the following error: - Flashing intermittently, whilst running the newly downloaded Desktop Manager - "Windows Installer Preparing to Install". I have removed the programme, downloaded it again from Blackberry's website and run my Windows updates to no available. I have now been advised that I must format my entire computer and reload Windows, which seems to be a rather onerous solution, as I have been using Blackberry's Synchronisation Programme for over a year successfully before this took place. I should appreciate it if you would let me know how this problem on my IBM Think Pad Laptop can be cured.

    The Windows Installer pop-up during installation and cannot continue, it seems that windows installer 4.5 is the cause, but I cannot uninstall windows installer 4.5 because many of my programs were using this..
    In this knowledge base solution it says to run BlackBerry Desktop Software.msi, but on BlackBerry Desktop Software 6, it need to run from setup.exe and cannot continue.. so I cannot install desktop software 6 on my computer, but I am able to install older version desktop software ie. version 4.2 to version 5.
    I think that I am gonna reply here instead of making new thread about windows installer 4.5 and Desktop Software 6, please move if I did wrong.

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 installed?
    How far into the opening of the program do you get? Do you get to the Expert or Quick workspaces?
    And, if so, how long can you stay there? What are you doing when you get this message, opening a new project
    or opening an existing one that has been saved/closed or just trying to launch the program from the desktop icon.
    Are you running the program Run As Administrator and from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    Do you have the McAfee antivirus program? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer
    with Premiere Elements 12?
    What video card/graphics card does your computer use? Have you verified at the web site of the manufacturer of the
    card that the video card/graphics card driver is up to date?
    If you do not know, check the Device Manager/Display
    Adapters to determine if you have 1 or 2 cards.
    Depending on your answers, the next step will be
    Uninstall the program the usual Control Panel way.
    (If you can get into the program long enough to go to Help Menu/Sign Out, please do that to deactivate the program
    before going to the uninstall in Control Panel area.)
    Do a run through with ccleaner (both the regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) to get rid of leftovers from
    incomplete uninstalls and reinstalls.
    https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
    Reinstall the program with the antivirus and firewalls disabled.
    (If you have McAfee as the antivirus, that may be problem, and we can take care of that without having to go

    Let us start here and then decide what next.

  • Does Running Boot Camp Solve Mavericks' Windows-Networking Problems?

    Anyone running Mavericks in a Windows-server environment knows how agonizingly slow it is populating a window on the server if there are more than a few dozen files in it (we have 25-30 folders on our Windows server that have more than 10,000 files in each one, and they are all images files with sizes between 5 and 50 MBs each). When we open a folder that's on the server in Mavericks' Finder, it can take up to 30 minutes to populate that window. We have since reverted to Mountain Lion and although it's still slow to populate those windows, it's nowhere near as slow as Mavericks, and once the window populates, as long as we don't shut down the computer, the next time we open that window it populates within seconds (I'm guessing that some sort of cache file is created).
    Does anyone know if running Windows in Boot Camp (or Parallels) would speed up the Windows-server window population problem? I'm guessing it might but I'm not sure if the computer is still connecting to the server using the Mac networking protocol. If I use my Windows 7 PC the server windows populate almost instantly.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Detection of windows registry problem

    I'm using illustrator 5.1 on PC (win 8.1). Currently the software has prompted with the message issuing the detection of windows registry problem. I can still use it if I choose allowing it to get fixed immediately. But it still prompted every time I open it. What can I do to fix it as I lost the installation disc?

    I was finally able to solve this by:
    1. copying a Sun/swdp directory from a different computer to this one.
    2. tried to uninstall, this failed.
    3. reinstalled swdp over this directory, specifying server integration. This failed.
    4. reinstalled swdp over this directory, specifying no server integration. This succeeded.
    5. uninstall. Delete swdp directory.
    6. reinstall fresh.

  • MOVED: K9N2 SLI Platinum - Windows 7 x64 BSOD problems

    This topic has been moved to Windows 7.
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133545.0

    The memorycontroller on that board is an oldie, got one myself  and it will probably not run @800MHz with all slots occupied on a x64 OS.
    That contoller is only rated for 667MHz when running all channells fully occupied.
    The fact that you could run it so under x86 has probably to do with the fact it didnt adress all the memory, but only 3.25GB max and thus it was stable enough.
    Now you are running an OS that uses all memory and thus it can become unstable while its running at a too high speed for the controller.
    I had the same and could "only" get the memory to work @750MHz tops, before it decided to BSOD or bootloop on me.
    This is inherent to its design (from NVidia, they made the chipset) and cannot be overcome, but dont worrie yourself, the speeddifference between 667MHz and 800MHz is negligible and will only show up if you run benches, in normal day to day use, you will hardly, if ever, notice it.
    But, do you really need 8GB???
    If you do gaming, internet, office and other "light" work, i.e. normal homeusage, 4GB is already more then enough.
    8GB is nice if you use cad/cam, photoshop and other memory intensive stuff.
