HWiNFO Bluescreens my m17xR2

Just wondering if anyone else gets this problem. It doesnt happen all the time but twice now HWiNFO has crashed my m17xR2. The first time I was switching back and forth between GPU0 and GPU1. The second time I was watching a movie and accedentaly hit the side of the laptop so that it vibrated a bit.

I cant find anything else that would cause a failure (RAM tested ok, no other program crashes). Anyone else see this behavior, or is it just me?

 

Hey there chiefs.

Yeh the thing that is causing your problems with restarting crashing bsod whatever you want to call it is the Free fall sensor. You will want to disable that so that you don't restart every time you bump the notebook a little. I had the same problem the 1st few days I was using the new notebook. It was soo soo annoying. You can either go into msconfig and disable the accelerometer service or go into device manager and disable it or uninstall. Or use the CMD command

If you do end up with random BSODs with this error code, try bringing up an admin mode command prompt and running the following command:

Quote:

sc config Acceler start= disabled

This will prevent the accelerometer driver from starting when you next reboot. To enable the driver again, change "disabled" to "demand".

This fixed up my restarting crashing/bsoding randomly issues.

Cheers.

Doing this makes my system lockup everytime without fail. Not sure if there's something wrong with my hardware.

 

I just think the sensors are too sensitive to be polled that hard. maybe there is a bandwitdth problem somewhere along the lines. :\

 

That's caused by the ATI ULPS feature - disables inactive GPU and in case it's accessed (read clock, sensors, etc) it crashes the whole system. There's more info about it on the HWiNFO32 forum or in other posts here..
