Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar Nice! Now we need to find where the Processor definitions are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Damnation Oh, we are all blind as much as possible. I just check the asl.exe Tool V5 from Microsoft. It works also, IF you dump and modify the DSDT files from running XP. If you are as "clever" as me, extract DSDT from Bios, modify it and upload it then, with any of the 3 methods you are forced to flash the Bios with this DSDT or you get always this acpi.sys error. Really crazy, I spend hours and hours with flashing Bios only because of this mistake^^ Dietmar PS: Here is the asl V5 tool. It works, I just test^^ https://ufile.io/rtk8elu3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar Thanks. are you not able to make dumps of your ACPI tables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Damnation Here they are, from the Asrock z690 Extreme, which is for me the most most XP friendly board. I use latest iasl from March 2022 and extract under win10 Dietmar https://ufile.io/piqd5ke6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) @Dietmar Thanks! I see in dsdt.dat your processors are defined with ACPI0007 ID but curiously no ACPI0010 container. I see ssdt.dat also has some external dependencies to dsdt.dat for processor definitions. Just to confirm, was this board giving you CPU power issues like me? or was it a different board? or were you having a different problem with this board?

Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Damnation Yes, this is the board which consumes a lot of power for nothing. The same is true for all the other z690 boards, which I have. But this board is the most XP friendly board and stable. When you have mood for, I am happy when you make a try for to modd the DSDT files and I will report then Dietmar PS: Now we 3 possibilities to upload acpi tables.

Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar OK, Here is my first attempt at an ACPI mod for you. Load both of the AML files in the MOD folder. The order may or may not be important I'm not sure - i.e if DSDT then SSDT does not work then try the other way around. https://ufile.io/fvbk5kfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar D'oh! I made a typo in the modded SSDT! new fixed version. https://ufile.io/sj2anz5z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) @Damnation Waaaoohhh , now we need Tutorial, how to make this Dietmar PS: Power consumption goes down from 44 Watt --> 1.6 Watt. This I like a lot, because in this winter here in germany people will die because no money for HEATING! Asrock Extreme z690 with 12900k cpu before DSDT mod from @Damnation after Edited August 16, 2022 by Dietmar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar 1.6 watts! Wow! and I thought 44 watts on my 5950x was good. The mod is not that complex, just compare original and modded tables, there isn't all that much of a difference. Now lets hope that @Mov AX, 0xDEAD can code the driver to understand ACPI0007 too.

Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) @Damnation Can you see a difference in the DSDT tables beween the power cores and the "efficient" cores of the 12900k cpu? The 12900k cpu has 8 Power cores with Hyperthreading, shows 16 "cpus" and 8 efficient cores, so all together 24, which numbers are NOW shown correct in processors Dietmar Edited August 16, 2022 by Dietmar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Dietmar All I really know is that deprecated Processor() Opcode is no longer in use in these newer ACPI tables that are giving power issues in XP. My mod removes the existing ACPI0007 processor definition and then reintroduces the old Processor() Opcode that XP's acpi.sys expects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietmar Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @Damnation The asl.exe V5 works also. The advantage from this tool is, that under XP SP3 the modified tables are stored in Registry and you dont need to upload them always new Dietmar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
