Dxgmms1.sys BSOD, Can't Uninstall Video Card Drivers
May 3, 2012
I'm using a i5-750, evga P55 classified and 4gb of team xtreem ram. recently I've been getting BSOD when playing games, caused by this file according to bluescreenview. I uninstalled the video card drivers but when I rebooted, for some reason I still have catalyst 12.1 and there doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall them. Tried driver verifier, and after i got the dxgmms1.sys while gaming, it BSOD while rebooting, after the windows loading logo.
Few days ago he started getting blue screen errors which would attempt to retart his rig but then windows wouldn't load. Unplug at the wall and then power it back up , everything fine.Now there's a fresh install of windows, drivers up to date etc. Its been tested with another power supply as well. We thought we had it fixed , but 24 hours later it randomly happend while on the desktop. Had been playing games earlier with no problems at all.
I get BSOD a lot. Usually I solve it by restoring to last state in safe mode. But this time I made the minidump file and wondering.I've tried updating my drivers(specially display adapters) at device manager but windows says they are up to date.
I've had multiple BSOD issues over the period of last few months, usually it was nvlddmkm.sys which I thought I solved with reinstalling nVidia drivers -> disabling some nVidia services routine. After that the errors came back, though much less frequent. I've ran into another bunch of BSOD's recently though, when I started playing star wars the old republic mmo. (dxgmms1.sys, sys32k.sys)
My Windows 7 is:
- x86 - I've had WinXP SP3 x86 before, but I've performed a complete system wipe before installing Windows 7 - It's a full retail version - Hardware age is about 3.5 years - Windows 7 was installed in March 2011
I've been having some serious trouble with my computer and CTD's and BSOD's related to what im fairly certain is something to do with my graphics card.
Long story short I've had repeated Service Exception BSOD'd for the past 2-3 weeks. In that amount of time I've run memtest to see if maybe my memory was to blame but that turned up nothing. I used driver sweeper to remove my nvidia drivers and put a fresh install on, and yet it still crashes.
I'm at my wits end here, normally its simply a matter of bad memory or a bad driver, but with this I have no clue what to do.
Ok I have installed windows 7 and went to install my Drivers for my 9400GT Video card (nv19045_Win7Vista32). It is telling me it can not find the drivers
"Could not find any compatible drivers for your hardware". What the heck does one do??
I had just installed a clean copy not an upgrade copy windows 7, the "Ati Radoen hd 3650 agp video card" and the version 9.11 catalyst software that came with it. However when I rebooted the display was so distorted that I had to reinstall my original video card to make my comp usable.
I have spent the past few days searching for updated drives or a fix for windows 7 without any luck. Does anyone know when and were the drives for this card will become available or a way to make it functional until there are.
I've installed Windows 7 (32 bits) in my computer recently. The computer is a little bit old, here are the specs: Pentium 4 3.0Ghz 2GB Ram 160 GB Hdd NVidia Geforce FX5600 XT
I went to Nvidia's website in order to download the drivers for my graphics card but there are no drivers available for Windows 7 designed to my card. I've downloaded the latest drivers there (Forceware 96.85, compatible with Vista) and they work. However there are two problems. The first is that I notice some small delays when I'm working normally with the computer, using Aero. The second one is that I can't access nVidia's app that manages the card's options.
I got a new video card at work to install and nothing will show up when I plug it in. I can go through the computers VGA and it works fine, but when I go to the video card only a black screen. Any help? Can't download drivers either, only black screen upon boot.
These are my system specs: PSU: Arctic Cooling 550 MOBO: Asus M5A78L VGA: Club 3D Radeon HD 6870 Fans: 2 x 120mm CPU: Amd Phenom II X4 955BE + stock heatsink Wifi: TP-LINK TL-WN781ND RAM: 2x2gb DDR3 Corsair Value (DDR1333) HDD: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB Optical drive: Samsung SH-S222AB 22x DVD/CD SATA
Randomly (for example: while surfing the internet), on Windows 7, the computer crashes with a screen with blue and grey vertical stripes (or sometimes totally grey or black). Sometimes this screen "hides" a BSoD, sometimes it doesn't. The system crashes only if video drivers are installed. On Ubuntu 11.04 (64-bit) and Windows XP (32bit), even after installing the drivers, there are no crashes. From BlueScreenView, all crashes look identical.
I tried: - 2 passes of Memtest86+: 0 issues - Installing Windows 7 and then ONLY the video drivers: CRASH - Installing XP 32-bit SP2 and the drivers: does not crash - Using Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit: does not crash - Uninstalling the drivers: does not crash - Safe mode: does not crash (obviously)
I am using NVidia GeForce FX 5500 256 MB RAM on my home PC. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate RC and everything worked smoothly including Aero to the highest quality where drivers were from Windows Update. Now, I got licensed Windows 7 Professional. When I update the driver from Windows Update everything works just fine until I shut down the PC and turn it on again. When I do that after OS finishes loading, screen suddenly goes blank. After like 2 minutes, system gives a blue screen and restarts. This time Windows successfully makes it to desktop saying that Windows recovered from an unexpected shutdown. When the report is prepared it says something went wrong with the video card drivers. The same thing happens even if I install the latest drivers for Vista directly from nVIDIA website as there is no Windows 7 drivers for FX 5500.
I just purchased a new video card for my old Acer M3100 that I dual boot the original Vista and Windows 7 on. I bought a new Asus Nvidia GeForce GT 610 video card to play Skyrim. Windows 7 will install the drivers with absolutely no error messages but upon rebooting they won't load and I'm stuck with basic VGA. I booted out and back to Vista and loaded them and they installed fine as well and upon rebooting into Vista they actually load! My Windows 7 install is a recent clean install because I tried upgrading to Windows 8 and didn't do a clean install and it borked itself on all my legacy hardware. Does anyone know why a clean install won't load new video card drivers but my old Vista install loads them fine? (Yet another reason not to abandon the Vista Beast, Vista is the last OS that recognizes my (2) Rio Karma MP3 Players.)I downloaded the latest drivers for Windows 7 Pro 64Bit directly from Nvidias website and installed them and still get a "No GPU detected" message when trying to run the NVidia software that comes with the drivers.
ok over the past month or so I have been trying to solve a problem with my Windows 7 installation (build 7232.0.1md64fre.winmain.0980610-1900)
after a fresh install I had to find the smu drivers for my biostar MB and windows installed it's own video driver 8.15.11.8585 dated april 09. the gfx card is a 9800GTX+ has the bios 62.92.56.0.6.
now since then I haven't been able to install any of nvidias driver updates and windows own driver update for my my gfx card, what happens is I install the driver then my system reeboots and as the driver loads after reeboot I simply get a blue screen error
I have tried various methods of unninstalling the drivers first and also using "drivercleaner.net" and also unninstalling my antivirus but none of these make any difference I still get the blue screen error "System_Service_Exception" stop 0x0000003B etc etc file mentioned is "nvlddmkm.sys"
now I can continue to use the OS by going into safe mode and removing the driver and letting windows install the default driver, but the tweaker in me is determined to get to the route cause of this problem
Is this something specific to this build or do I have a corrupted driver file somewhere or is there something simple I need to do with possibly the registry.
I have built them formatted them, fixed them added components many many times...This is my issue, Internet explore won't open....well it opens and I get a ap crash notification. I take out both of my different videos cards and use internal video and it does not crash. The problem is this is my living room movie file player and the video cards make a huge difference....I also need explorer as well....now Chrome works but that is not what I want..
I purchased diablo 3 for my husband & my video card is not supported so he's unable to play, my computer is a HP P624 f-b desktop with a Intel GMA intregrated graphics, I am aware I need to up my power supply also, I have no idea what video card can be used to upgrade so the game is playable, not looking to spend a fortune?
PI have to use onboard sound card to have audio through HDMI output from video card. The external sound card installed is Xonar DG and it comes with SPDIF output header to be interfaced with video card. But I do not see no such header on the video card. I wonder what video card has such an interface header.
I have recently purchased Samsung RF511 notebook and I have been trying to run HD video files(mkv) and they do run but it is very laggy and stuttering occurs very often. So I looked a bit into this matter and what I have found is that the VLC player that I am using to play the video files runs of the onboard graphics card and not the nvidia 540M card that is also installed in this notebook.
how to uninstall/reinstall my audio card driver. I'm using a HP Mini netbook (windows 7 starter). I use this Netbook mainly for browsing and watching netflix. I spend a lot of time in a motel. When I'm trying to watch a movie the Audio is faster than the video (The words are already spoken, but the characters haven't said them yet). I downloaded "driver detective" and it said that my Audio was out of date.
I have a C-media sound card (CMI8738/C3DX PCI audio device) that was running fine on XP. But since I changed to Windows 7, the sound became choppy and delayed when watching videos. I used the same driver that I used on XP, I tried updating but Windows 7 said its already up-to-date.
The worst part: I tried uninstalling the driver and my PC turned grayish white..one time I even saw pixels of my mouse on the corner screen, much like a distorted screen of some sort. Even disabling the device crashed the screen same as uninstalling it (like a BSoD). Now I can't change the driver.
Details: MOBO: ECS P4M800 Processor: Pentium D RAM: 1GB Video card: internal, 32 MB shared
Also, my MOBO had internal sound cards running previously on realtek that got busted after an internal short circuit...damn. Its undetected at the device manager.
This is still a problem in progress, but getting worse. I thought it was a mobo or hardware problem but I have a work around. After booting or coming out of sleep or hibernation, the laptop spreaker ROARS with unbelievably LOUD SCREECHING! This happens just after the motherboard boot screen goes black and the little blinking cursor starts in the upper left corner. It's the point when one would use F8 for the menu. The roar is horrible! Rebooting a dozen times does nothing. I have set the laptop speaker volume to 0 and the post sounds to Off. Nothing affects this roaring sound.
