Re: A couple of unexpected BSOD after reinstalling windows 7.
Hi dieseldoris and Welcome to The Forum.
Further to the excellent advice from nmsuk, I noticed a critical driver that needs dealing with:
ASACPI.sys Mon Mar 28 03:30:36 2005 This driver is notorious for causing BSOD's. You have two options:
- You can disable the ATK0110 ACPI Utility in the DeviceManager (under System Devices) with no apparent issues. OR (and if disabling does cause issues)
- There is an update here: Asus ATK0110 driver. Look under the sub-heading: Utilities. 12th one down.
Driver Install - Manual method
- Download the driver and extract it to a folder.
- Open the Device Manager.
- Right click the device you wish to change the drivers for. You can select Properties > Driver > Driver Details to check you have the right device. In this case System Devices >> ATK0110 ACPI Utility
- Choose Update Driver Software.
- Select Browse My Computer For Driver Software.
- Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
- Select Have disk...
- Select Browse..
- Navigate to the extracted folder and double click on the .inf file
- Hit OK, then Next and the driver(s) will then begin to install.
- After it has installed, GoTo C:\Windows\System32\Drivers. Locate the Asacpi.sys driver, right click it and check the dates under its properties. You're looking for a "Modified" date of 2009 or 2010. Occasionally it can be a bit stubborn to change.
Hope that helps.
Nothing is foolproof to the talented fool.
