Troubleshooting for motherboard driver Exceptions:
1, the motherboard drive causes the computer to crash the breakdown
Friends assembled soon after the computer recently crashes, fault phenomenon is in the operation of some graphics image processing software, whenever the processing finished save the machine will panic, which makes friends feel very annoyed, reinstall the operating system many times after the failure is still not ruled out, And the most important thing is that friends of the computer can not be normal installation of scanners, to the work of friends has brought great inconvenience.
Failure Analysis and resolution:
Friends are engaged in decorating design, the assembly of this computer is designed to design drawings, so the machine configuration is not low, the specific configuration is as follows: Elite 915PE chipset motherboard, seven rainbow 6600 graphics card, Kingston 512M DDR400 memory, processor for the Intel 775 pin 64-bit 506 (frequency 2.66G), Hard disk for the seven generation of Seagate Cool fish 160GB PATA, optical drive for Samsung DVD-ROM, another scanner brand for the Tsinghua Violet.
According to friends, this computer is an assembly machine, the use of about half a year, one of the more stable, and there is no problem. There was a chance. After the computer was infected with a virus friend reinstall the operating system, and then the scanner will not be normal installation, in addition to the implementation of image processing software (friends often use Photoshop) to save when the panic often occurs, and each reboot again or so, the fault is more frequent, In the meantime the friend did not use any hardware overclocking.
That is, the computer in the absence of a reinstall can be normal operation, and the installation will often panic, which fully illustrates the failure of hardware damage is not likely, so the author focused on the problem of software failure.
According to friends, in the operation of image processing software is very easy to panic, the first thing to check is the version of DirectX, or whether there are problems, the machine support is not good. Turn on DirectX to see its version 8.1 (the friend installed the Windows 2000 operating system), and then upgrade the DirectX software, upgrade to the 9.0C version, run the image processing software again, the fault remains.
So I suspect can be a friend shut down or wrong operation when the system lost a file or caused registry data errors caused, so I switched the computer to a DOS state, and the use of Scanreg/restore Restore system registry, the problem remains. The hardware is really a problem, so I opened the chassis, the computer hardware for careful inspection, focusing on the machine to check the heat dissipation problem, and one by one to eliminate the hardware, but the problem remains.
What's the reason? The author calm down to think carefully, suddenly thought of hardware equipment manager, and then open the Control Panel-system-Device Manager, in the Device Manager window, the author impressively found that there are two items marked with a yellow exclamation mark (labeled yellow exclamation point indicating equipment problems, can not be used), respectively, "PCI Universal Serial Bus" and "PCI BRIDGEPCI Universal Serial Bus", to view the "properties", found that both of the device drivers are not properly installed, so the author concluded that the problem is here.
Need to explain: PCI bridge is "PCI Bridges", mainly for the Eide interface between the high-speed connection between the channel, so that the Eide interface to better support high-speed data transfer mode (that is, Ultra DMA 33), in order to significantly improve the Eide interface transmission speed (in general, , the installer will normally automatically detect and install PCI bridge drivers in Windows, and now these two items are marked with a yellow exclamation point that must be problematic, and it will affect the performance of the motherboard and cause the panic.
At the same time, PCI Universal Serial Bus is a kind of PCI equipment, commonly known as "Universal Serial bus (ie, USB)", is the computer and scanners, digital cameras, printers and other general-purpose USB devices to connect, so that the computer can obtain more data from the outside information. Now this device is not available, indicating that the computer can not be normal from the USB external devices to obtain information, so it will not be able to properly install the scanner.
Fault found, so I find the motherboard driver installation CD-ROM, reinstall the motherboard driver, reboot, complete troubleshooting. Finally ask the friend, the original after the installation of Window 2000, then directly installed the frequently used software, and did not install any motherboard driver.
Fault Summary:
PCI and USB devices should be installed in the WinDOS 2000 will automatically install, friends in the installation of the system did not install these two, indicating that a friend of the installation system disk problems. So here to remind you that after installing the system, we must first install the motherboard and graphics hardware, such as the driver, and to the device under the device to check the installation of each hardware equipment, what problems should be resolved immediately after the installation of a variety of application software, To prevent problems caused by incorrect driver installation, you will not be required to trouble.
2, install MSI motherboard driver patch to enter the system blue screen
One motherboard for MSI 815EPT (6337) computer, after installing the motherboard inf in the process of Windows 98, restart the computer as required by the system, resulting in a blue screen appearing in the process of entering windows.
The workaround is to restart the computer after you install the motherboard driver, enter Safe mode, perform a disk scan on C disk, and then restart the computer, and the system will automatically detect the new device and install the appropriate motherboard driver.
3, Windows 2003 suspended animation to install the motherboard driver
I began to use it shortly after the Windows2003 had been launched. Always feel it's stable and speed is very good. Later, because of work needs, I installed a number of operating systems, but found that there is often a false panic (the mouse does not respond, generally after three or four seconds before will return to normal) phenomenon.
One time to play at a friend's house, he was also using Windows 2003, found that there is the same problem with my computer, so I carefully looked at his settings, found that he is using the VIA 4in1 motherboard driver, is a 443 version.
Then the Internet download the latest 449SP3 (support Windows2003 version) after installation, played a long time of the game, there is no more false panic phenomenon. Back home, I think my Windows2003 will also be due to the motherboard driver installation improper cause of the fake panic, because I am using the AMD750 motherboard, does not support the Windows 2003 motherboard driver. Considering that Windows 2003 has a return-driven feature, it enters Device Manager to "AMD-756 PCI bus Master IDE Controller V1.36" and "System Devices" AMD-751 for IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers Essor to AGP Controller "returns the driver. After restarting, no reason false panic, the computer has been stable operation.
4, with the motherboard driver-related
Motherboard driver loss, breakage, repeated installation will cause the operating system boot failure or cause operating system instability of the failure, you can open the Control Panel-system-Device Manager to check the system devices in the project has a yellow exclamation point or question mark. Remove the yellow exclamation point or question mark item (you can do it in Safe mode), reinstall the driver with the motherboard, and reboot. For example, motherboards using the Intel chipset will install the Intel Chipset Software installation Utility motherboard driver, and motherboards using the VIA chipset need to have a "4 in 1" drive to achieve better stability and compatibility.
