Big issues after installing new video card, help please.

FlclAdam12 · Mar 24, 2011

Hello,
I just recently got a GTX 570.
I did a clean install of 7 when I installed it and I am having some pretty serious problems.
My system keeps hanging with the HDD light stuck on even when it sounds like there is no activity. I cleared the CMOS, loaded all defaults and I was still getting issues.
I am getting a bunch of I/O errors when ever I use utorrent.
Today, I got a BSOD
" BugcheckCode 122
BugcheckParameter1 0xfffff6fc400283b0
BugcheckParameter2 0xffffffffc0000185
BugcheckParameter3 0x16da19be0
BugcheckParameter4 0xfffff88005076000
SleepInProgress false
PowerButtonTimestamp 0"
I looked at the event viewer and there are
a lot of errors with the source "atapi" and for event data they all say "\Device\Ide\IdePort3"
I ran chkdsk and I didn't find any errors.
I changed sata from AHCI to IDE mode which didn't help.
I mean the 570 is handling all of my games without issues, but is it possible that it
could still be the video card?
Any ideas?

iirc, changing from ide to ahci requires reinstalling windows (if it is a system drive)

you have a hdd light and ide showing errors, i guess it is drive related and not the geforce.

This.

"IDE to AHCI without re-installing OS" can be done (apparently (needs feedback))

1. Exit all Windows-based programs.
2. Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
3. If you receive the User Account Control dialog box, click Continue.
4. Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci
5. In the right pane, right-click Start in the Name column, and then click Modify.
6. In the Value data box, type 0, and then click OK.
7. On the File menu, click Exit to close Registry Editor
8. Restart and change IDE to AHCI in the BIOS

Source.

im fairly CERTAIN this is not an ACHI - IDE problem..... you guys need to stop there.

hes was getting blue screens before he changed that option.... and the fact that windows booted is another sign ACHI is not the issue.

perhaps the install was corrupt duing installing windows, i would reinstall windows to make sure, set your Bios up correctly before doing so.

MY idea:

PSU.

Could jsut be corrupt windows, HDD on it's way out, or the board itself. Could be a bad partition, too.

Nailezs · Mar 24, 2011

is this system overclocked at all?

overclocking101 · Mar 24, 2011

you may have crossed the HDD activity light?? probably not though. I would also reinstall as suggested above

FlclAdam12 · Mar 24, 2011

Thank you all for the responses!
I tried reinstalling windows 3 separate times.
I guess I could install it on another drive.
The system is not currently Overclocked.
I will let you know if I have any luck on another drive.

slyfox2151 · Mar 24, 2011

if you have tried 3 times then i would definetly say its either the HDD itself, the power cable or Sata cable, the Motherboard Sata slot or the PSU.

95Viper · Mar 24, 2011

Do you have any devices plugged into the PATA connector (like a cd/dvd).
If you do; try disconnecting them.

{JNT}Raptor · Mar 24, 2011

Sounds like a bad SATA port on the mobo....or on it's way out......switch the port and reboot....no need to reinstall yet.

Hope it helps.

scaminatrix · Mar 24, 2011

Does it only happen when you use utorrent?

FlclAdam12 · Mar 24, 2011

I replaced the cable, removed all other drives and it seems to be better.
I'm going to add them beck in one by one and see if i get any more issues.
Hopefully it was just the cable.
Also, it was not only happening when I was using utorrent.
Thanks again!
