I just built desktop with ASUS M4A78 Plus mobo and was getting BSODs constantly using windows 7 64-bit. I just installed XP 32-bit and ti's running fine. One thing I noticed is on XP the south bridge drivers installed but on Windows 7 whenever I tried to install them using catalyst manager or driver from ATI's site it would not install. It would attempt to install the north bridge drivers which the log would say successful but catalyst manger would always say they weren't installed.
Has anyone experienced this problem or now a fix for it?
Well ive heard that Ivy bridge boost 20% performance and huge in GPU.I dont need Built in GPU.Ivy has integrated USB3.0, PCI 3.0 and thunderbird.Is it really worth to wait for the new Ivy Bridge i5 3570k? versus i5 2500k?I have a lesson for the previous CPU. Bought 3 computer Socket 1156 after 2 months of release!The result? i always got a BSOD.The Sandy bridge 1st release has a problem also with the chipset.If i remember they fix after 2 weeks with the new B3 design.Now guys because im really excited on Ivy bridge.The release date is April 08, 2012 What can you say? is it really safe buying for only a 1 month old after the release? Lets say i wait to buy on May 01, 2012?.Amd is creating a PCI 3.0 Hd 7 Series.
i just installed PC Lin-Q (USB 2 High Speed Bridge Cable) between tow of my Desktop Computers #1 Windows 7 RC1 and #2 Windows XP Pro SP3, installed to Windows 7 RC1 as Windows XP SP3 compat and it works fine !
I was fixing my other laptop and I wiped my external HDD thinking it was the laptop's HDD by mistake. I cleaned it via CMD(SELECT DISK 1, CLEAN) Any ideas to make it back to normal?
i have just built a new rig and i'm having a couple of problems. as i said in the title i have a msi 560 on a asus p67 mobo with a intel i5 2500.i've had the computer for about 2 months now and a few days ago, when i started the computer, a message saying "disk read error, push ctrl + alt + delete" came up. i restarted my comp' a few times and it eventually booted. then today the same message came up and i went through the same process and i got the computer to boot again.this i could deal with however, my computer now has been on for about 16 hours (no big deal) but now it wont play Internet videos and huge artifacts and random triangles and things com up in games like battlefield bc2. the reason i put the time up here is that when i first started the computer it was doing video things fine.
I've been having some BSOD probs, so I'm currently updating all of my drivers. The only one I can't find an update for is called PCI Standard Host CPU Bridge. Could you point me in the right direction, so I can get the update?
Also, for some reason, PCI Standard Host CPU Bridge is listed twice in Device Manager... and both entries seem identical. Would this mean I have to update both?

I use a network bridge between my wireless and wired adapters to put my 360 on Live, because the 360 Wireless Network Adapter is just waaaay too expensive. Anyway, it all worked completely fine under XP, but I just installed 7 and there's a couple of things I'm having trouble with... The network icon in the sytem tray shows either... well, I'm not sure exactly what icon it is when the 360 is on, or a disconnected wireless network icon when it isn't...
what I'd like is the normal wireless network icon with the signal bars (this is more of an annoyance, but I get really annoyed by stuff like this). More seriously, under (as far as I can tell) the same configuration as XP, the 360 can't get an IP address from my router.
If I set it to a static IP, it connects to Live, but complains about "moderate NAT" or some crap, and says that will stop me connecting to some games or players (and it does).
I'm using a bridged connection so that my ps3 can connect through my computer (better speed then with ps3s wireless), but I have a small problem.
the ps3 can connect to the internet and everything seems to work fine, but after 10 min of gaming I will get a network error saying that I'm not connected to the internet.
After repairing it'll work again. Any idea whats wrong and how to fix it?
i normal run windows xp on my machine but currently trying out windows 7 but i have a small problem. ok so in xp i create a network bridge with my wireless card and ethernet so that i can connect my xbox 360 to the internet without buying the wireless adapter. now when i try to do this in windows 7 i get an error that says. To create a Network Bridge, you must select atleat two LAN or High-Speed Internet connections that are not being used by Internet Connection Sharing. im useing a lan connection and a high speed wireless connection isnt that all i need....and if it's because of intnert connection sharing how do i turn that off in windows
I have two network adpatro in win 7 one is lan card network adpator that use ip 10.1.4.100/16 Gw 10.1.1.249 one is VPN network adpator .If it enable , the IP will ber 192.168.2.X /24 .
I want to make bridge and so , the computer from 10.1.4.XXX /16 can use my computer to reach the 19.1.68.2.x . In this case , my PC work as a router .
I try to make bridge with above two adaptor . But after enable the bridge, I still cannot ping ,telnet 192.168.2.XXX from 10.1.4.xxx PC even after setup the route table .
my wireless USB network adapter crapped out on me recently, so I'm trying to run internet through my wireless laptop to my PC using a network bridge but for some reason the internet speed wont stay high. its starts out good and then gets really slow. both laptop and pc are running windows 7 enterprise. keep the internet running at a steady pace?
The other thread was really poorly titled, and im getting an issue: Could not find file 'C:msinfo32.nfo'.I have a pc with a 3770k intel cpu and a msi-g45 mobo long story short im getting BSOD's.what seems to happen is ill turn the pc on and it will gradually slow down untill it bsods, it doesnt seem to be affected so much by what i do it seems to inevitably crash though.Ive noticed through CPU-Z where my CPU will jump between around 800-1600mhz to 3700 which of course is a feature with the new chips but after some time itll stop jumping and sit at 1600 and then 800 then my core freq will drop between 100 and 50 and kind of swap around there before crashing.I thought maybe my psu wasnt giving enough power to the chip but i tested that and it seems to be working fine.
Let me explain to you my setup before I explain my problem. I have a desktop computer with a wireless network card which connects to the router and the internet. I have a LAN cable attached from the desktop to my xbox 360. I have both my wireless connections and LAN connection bridged so I can play xbox 360 on xbox live without using the proprietary wireless adapter. My wireless network is capable of connecting to my wireless n router upto 300mbps.
So here is the issue:
When my xbox 360 is on, the Mac Bridge Miniport speed is listed as either 300mbps or sometimes 1Gbps which is good. As soon as I turn it off, the speed drops to 54mbps and stays there. In order for me to get it back to 300mbps I have to delete the Mac Bridge Miniport and recreate it or I have to turn my xbox back on. Is there someway I can make the Mac Bridge Miniport stay at 300mbps always, even when the xbox is off?
I am having some issues with Windows 7 and my network bridge. I currently have it setup like this...modem -> router -> laptop -> wireless bridge. The problem is whenever I have the bridge enabled, the port I have open for utorrent is blocked. When I disable the network bridge the port is open again. I have the port open on my router so I dont think thats the problem.
When the bridge is disabled, I use a static IP and everything works well. When the bridge is enabled and I use a static IP, nothing works (not even firefox) and if I don't use a static IP utorrent gets blocked but Firefox works fine.
I was running WinXP before I moved to Windows 7 and there was never a problem...I could have the bridge enabled and it wouldn't effect my utorrent at all.
I recently bought myself a new Netgear Stora MS2110 (network storage), my network situation is a bit strange. I've got my computer connected to a wireless network with internet access, and the Stora now connected to the computer by a wired LAN without internet. I just now discovered that I needed to have internet to setup the Stora, so my question is this - Can I somehow Bridge the wireless network onto the wired network through my computer? giving the Stora internet access and access to the wireless network.
I bought a new Acer Aspire V3 laptop last week, with the new intel processor. Using it only for 3 days, it started to crash (blue screen). Can you help me please?I have attached the BSOD dump and the system health report.Here is the spec of my pc: x64 bit - windows OS - came pre-installed on system (OEM ) - What is the age of system (hardware)? just a week.What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) NO, it come pre-installed, and I didn't reinstall it.
I'm doing a clean install of 7 ultimate x64, I've got another hd with the rc installed that has been running for a while so I know the hardware works under 7.
If I boot the new install with my 5 port usb pcix card, it detects a "pci-to-pci bridge" starts to install drivers, and then the whole system hangs. I've tried taking everything else out, no joy.
Any suggestions on how to get this device installed?

Out of those 3 cards I only use the GTX260 and the 9400GT. I had to 'retire' the Fx5500 because the latest WHQL (certified) drivers only provide support as far down as the "6 series" Nvidia cards. Unfortunately the Fx5500 is a "5 series" and falls below that line. I have already tried to use the GTX260 and Fx5500 in previous versions of Windows (XP and Vista), but there is no way to download and install two separate drivers for two of the same make of video card - you'll get nothing but errors.
There is the option of going to a place like guru3d.com and downloading a custom supported driver that covers both the GTX260 and Fx5500, but the drivers are not certified and lack support. Therefore, I purchased and now use the 9400GT which is covered under the drivers for the GTX260 and eliminates the need for messing around with custom drivers. Also, the 9400GT has a better graphics processor and more memory than the Fx5500, so it was time to upgrade anyway.
I've been comparing the specs on the following processors and as a non-gamer the Xeon processors look very attractive. What I like is that Intel offers the choice of a Xeon 80 watt non-graphics processor versus it's 95 watt on-board graphics processor. It would have been nice if Intel offered that same choice in it's Core line. Many users prefer a PCI graphics card and don't use the on-chip graphics, so why not a choice, like with the Xeon line?
After a ton of speculation, a bit of denial, and a ton of testing we finally have our answer. The thermal interface material change made by Intel when it went from Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge is indeed the cause of the excessive temperatures weve observed while overclocking. The first accusation was made in late-April by Overclockers.com, however proving it wasn't easy. The Japanese division of PC Watch somehow managed to remove the integrated heat spreader from a Core i7 3770k, along with the stock binding and grease. They then proceed to replace it with aftermarket alternatives, and the results speak for themselves.
My windows 7 machine is unable to connect to my internet through the wireless bridge I've set up on my WRT54G using DD-WRT. It seems to be connected to the network as it sees the other computers that are on it but there is no internet access. Every once in awhile it gains access and then abruptly loses it in a matter of minutes. The router supplies internet to anything else I plug into it, be it my Xbox or laptop running XP.
I'm working on a re-install of all components following a complete corruption of the boot sector on my drive which could not be fixed with repairs. The last time I installed everything fresh, I had no issues. Between then and now, there have been no hardware changes on my system, but now I am having issues installing the IDT Codecs. I keep getting an error along the following lines: Quote: ExitError: Error=Device Object not present, restart the system and run setup again. Running under compatibility mode, and running drivers from both the motherboard CD and the manufacturer website both have the same effect. The CD, when booted, says "This OS not support!" and only contains 32-bit vista codecs. ECS' website download indicates the IDT drivers as being compatible with Windows 7. Both do not work. It is almost as if the hardware "disappeared," despite the fact that I was using the drivers quite successfully till just 2 days ago, when the boot sector went kaput.
Windows has installed its own default set, which do nothing to power the 8mm jacks which I use with my speakers, but instead put sound through the HDMI, which is useless because I use a dedicated graphics card. I have tried uninstalling this codec and re-installing IDT, to no effect. Windows replaces with its own default codec.I have referenced this thread here, but offered solutions do not seem to work for me: Intel IDT Audio Driver will not install
I installed WinXP-mode to regain the use of a scanner for which there are no Windows 7 drivers; and then I found I could continue using Outlook Express as my email client. I also discovered that dragging items from one desktop to another is NOT possible; BUT from WinXP, I can 'look into' the Windows 7 system. So I created a folder in the root of Windows 7 as a 'clearing house' for file exchange between Windows 7 and WinXP. For convenience, I put a shortcut to that folder on the WinXP desktop. Sad to say, its viability lasts only for the session. When the Windows 7 PC shuts down, the link to that shortcut is broken. Is there a way to make it permanent?
I have a simple question, I recently fresh installed Windows7 and was wondering if I should Install the new mobo drivers from the ASUS site (i have an ASUS P5Q Pro) or should I just keep the current microsoft drives for all the chipsets/lan/etc. The only Thing I installed was the Realtek sound driver. Would there be any advantages to install proper drivers? because right now my computer runs perfectly stable and smooth using the Windows7 ones.
During the installation process of Windows 7 it is possible to load drivers, e.g. the downloaded SATA, LAN and Graphics drivers for a specific motherboard (MoBo ASUS P7P55D).However, these files are compressed zip files and Unzipping delivers a set of folders with in each a number of files. Which are the device drivers?
My old hard drive crashed on my laptop and i bought a new one meaning i had to reinstall Windows 7. Once this had finished I couldn't connect to the internet, the troubleshooter says this:
"Windows did not detect a properly installed network adapter. If you have a network adapter, you will need to re-install the driver".
I tried to download drivers but I get the message "Unable to download no Intel(R) Adapters"
i can install ati drivers i have an ati hd 5000 serie i download from here ATI Catalyst before install it , i uninstall the old version boot in safe mode and run Driver Cleaner.NET and cleaned the old files, reboot click on the installer and during the install ,it gives me an error ""the INF file was not found." the installer doesn't block , it continue and finish it doesn't ask to reboot but i can not install the drivers for my ati i tried to go in the device menager and uninstall from here nothing i doesn't want to install ati drivers.
I'm unable to boot anything other than the HDD with the laptop I'm installing on. There's no disc drive, and BIOS is unable to find any USBs. Given this, I removed the HDD, put it in my computer, and installed windows 7 from there. However this also means that the drivers for the laptop were not installed, and thus when I try to boot windows 7 from the laptop, I get instant BSOD + restart.How do I go about installing the drivers?
For some reason all my USB ports have stopped working, when I try to update or install drivers I keep getting the same message saying that its not possible to install drivers or that no drivers are available. I took it to a repair shop and was told I would have to reformat it...I'm hoping thats not the only solution as the cost involved is almost the cost of a new laptop.
