Malumen Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 try to disable it in the BIOS.Isn't that a little dangerous?Do you know what that particular thing does? What it is being used for?And I don't even know how to disable something in the BIOS. I don't even know how to access the BIOS... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 normally F2 oder DEL keys let you go to the BIOS. I've also disabled it. But make a full system backup to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malumen Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) normally F2 oder DEL keys let you go to the BIOS. I've also disabled it. But make a full system backup to be safe.So press F2 when I start into windows 7? Is that how to get INTO the BIOS?Then when I'm in there, I have no idea how to disable that function... :/Do you know of another tutorial or guide that can help me?EDIT:Andre, I am using an apple iMac with Bootcamp installed.Thus, I do not have a BIOS. It is using an "EFI".Do you know how I can access this EFI on my windows side? Alternately I could try booting up my Mac side and changing things from there...

MagicAndre1981 Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 this is an example. Create a folder and name it what ever you want. You can also install this Tool:ContextConsole Shell Extensionhttp://code.kliu.org/cmdopen/to open a CMD with admin rights in every folder you want.

davros303 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Hi Andre & all,I've been searching for weeks to get a solution to bad latency issues causing static audio pops, dropouts and freezes in Win7 I even bought a brand new motherboard hoping to fix my latency issues, only to find them much worse with the new board!storport.sys is now the main culprit which I isolated in LatencyMon.Finally discovered this forum & thread. Andre - followed your instructions and discovered storport.sys "RaidAdapterTimerDpcRoutine" is the culprit, with a max actual duration of over 51ms per spike.However now that I've located the problem - what can I do about it? I've searched for a long time for any kind of update or fix or revision or driver rollback for storport.sys.System is:Windows 7 64bit SP1Asus Sabertooth 990FX moboAMD Phenom II X6 1090T black8gig ramHave installed all latest drivers from Asus including latest BIOS, latest drivers for the GFX card etc and all the Win7 updates including SP1.Cheers from Australia,David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Do you use a RAID adapter/functions of your SATA controller? If not, disable the RAID functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davros303 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Hi Andre,No I don't have a RAID setup - using 3 separate drives - an internal IDE HDD, an SSD and an external drive connected via SATA.I checked in the BIOS and the SATA ports are all set to AHCI, and I couldn't find any other options to enable or disable RAID. Are there settings in the device manager or switches in the registry I need to change?All the best,David Edited August 29, 2012 by davros303 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davros303 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Wow, they were the only drivers I hadn't installed. Big thanks!The DPC is much better, but still spiking into the red on DPC latency checker every few seconds. The new culprits seem to be Wdf01000.sys (FxDpc:FxDpcThunk) and nvlddmkm.sys (0xfffff88011186128). What's misbehaving now?http://www.mediafire.com/?qob0e3k3h0ihgnqCheers,Davros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
