    BSOD Memory_Management

    I was browsing the net and got the MEMORY_MANAGEMENT BSOD. I recently upgraded to a new HDD and everything has been fine except for this. Only one of them has happened so far. Also, I'm very certain all my drivers are updated but I could be wrong. Tried reading the minidump myself with an online...

    Solved Can't detect boot device after factory format to new HDD

    The hybrid drive was indeed the issue! I exchanged it for a regular HDD and factory reset completed without a hitch. :thumb:

    Solved Can't detect boot device after factory format to new HDD

    I spoke with a couple folks from HP and am getting conflicting help; one says that it most definitely sounds like it does not like the hybrid drive. The other won't state whether or not this is a problem, and gave me the steps I've already tried to get it to run. What's weird is it won't even...

    Solved Can't detect boot device after factory format to new HDD

    First off, I have an HP Pavilion G6 that I purchased in December 2012. Yesterday I decided to get a new HDD to upgrade it and start fresh. It's a 1TB SSD+HDD hybrid by Seagate. It installed without a hitch, and I used my HP recovery CDs to do a factory format of the disk. It finishes, reboots...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    I was just about to mark this as solved (sorry for taking so long) but something new happened tonight. Was running Firefox, and like usual sometimes it locks up from a shockwave or flash player freeze. As soon as the "shockwave may not be responding" message appeared Firefox locked up and then...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    That's the AMD HDMI Audio driver which is really strange because the APU driver update I installed came with it. I did the custom installation option and saw HD AUDIO in the list. It was checked and should have installed with the rest of the package. I do recall during installation the progress...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    Got some not so good news! I gave my computer a break last night and shut it down. When it booted up, it booted STRAIGHT to a bluescreen except it was unreadable. Like the text was a mess. It still rebooted and didn't glitch up or anything beyond that. I have never, ever seen anything like this...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    Yes that's why I haven't updated the BIOS yet, I figured it was pretty risky. So I will hold off on that for now. Anyway, I went to AMD and used the driver update detector. Found the latest package and installed! Apparently I never EVER updated beyond the factory driver! I thought I did! lol As...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    Thanks a lot! I will give this a try and see how it goes. Should I update my BIOS as well? I've not done that before. Also even though you haven't indicated as such yet, nothing looks like it's pointing to a hardware error right? Just checking for peace of mind! -EDIT Forgot to ask, is there a...

    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) error while idle

    My laptop rebooted in the middle of the night, and it was from a bluescreen. I have no idea what caused it but I uploaded the memory dump file to an analyzer and got: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) And that's about all I could figure out from it. I have no idea what the rest of the text...

    Replacing Laptop HDD

    Thanks a lot! I'm going to create backup discs for it then. After I do so and put in the new HDD, all I do is start-up the computer with a disc inside to reinstall it, correct? Will all my stuff be there aside from personal files and installed programs?

    Replacing Laptop HDD

    I got an HP laptop last year pre-installed with Windows 8 and I want to install a new HDD. How do I go about doing this and not losing any files? So far all I know to do is to create a system disc from the recovery manager, and then a recovery file on an external drive. Does this cover personal...
