MagicAndre1981 Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 ntkrnlmp.exe!PopThermalLogMetricsInformationACPI.sys!StartTimeSlicePassiveWhich cooler do you use for your Intel i7? What's the temperature when you have the high DPC usage? I can see core 3 is busy doing all the DPC stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicAndre1981 Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 update your nVIDIA driver for the NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT. Also update the driver wdmqua.sys (QUARTET Audio Driver?)The trace says you use an Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz, not a Core2Duo. CPU 0 Usage, CPU 1 Usage, usec %, usec %, Module 25192 0.07, 23162 0.07, nvlddmkm.sys 17650 0.05, 18341 0.05, wdmqua.sys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertox Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) All my drivers are updated (same drivers on 7 works ok)...My e2180 IS a CONROE.., aka C2D. And it's running at 3GHz, oc'd. No matter what this app say...Maybe is the USB port/sys? I see a lot of calls.. Or TCPIP.sys..? Thanks. Edited November 21, 2010 by bertox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertox Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) Well, uninstalled graphics and audio and DPCs go to 100us (do you want etl file?).. Installed again and all up to 1000us like before.. There is a problem with multimedia hardware and the rest of OS i see.., don't think faulty drivers but some VISTA problem..

djquartz Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) Hello Magical Andre,I've been chasing a dpc issue since last year and revisited the issue about a week ago with them. They want to offer me a replacement but I want to do my homework because I did find a 'workaround' originally. I want to permanently fix the issue because the laptop I have right now has great features. Also, there is nothing 'wrong' with it except for this dpc issue.Just to give some history on the problem, the workaround I'm referring to is suspending the acpi.sys thread. If that thread is suspending using the process explorer or process hacker the dpc interruptions stop.However, I want to find the root of the problem and I stumbled across this forum while searching on Google for information.I read the explanation on the first page and the SDK link you provided is for Windows 7. Do you have a link for Windows XP? Edited November 28, 2010 by djquartz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 install WPT on Windows 7 and xcopy the complete WPT folder to XP and run the command without the -stackwalk option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djquartz Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) Thanks that worked, I was able to install it on my win7 test machine and copy the folder over to the problem laptop running XP. The viewer wouldn't run on XP, so I viewed the file using the win7 machine with your explanation. It appears the following are the highest.- usbport.sys- ntkrnlpa.exe- atapi.sys- sptd5789.sys- acpi.sysThere is one in there for the dpc latency checker but I won't include that. The only reason I had this open during the trace is so I could run xperf when the spikes were high and capture the data.Here is a link to my file,http://www.sendspace.com/file/wt5cgg Edited November 29, 2010 by djquartz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
