After ACPI Wizard system hangs while booting

[Daniel Ventura]

After ACPI Wizard (this added /SMP /APIC) the system don't starts.

if edited config.sys and deleted /SMP /APIC options then system boots. (1 processor shows)

I edited again and use /SMP /!NOD and system complete boot but is extremely slow and many programs like ecenter don't starts. (8 processors shows)

System is an intel i7 920 2gb RAM 1333Mhz and mainboard is a intel DX58SO/LGA1336 FSB1600 DDR3-1600 ATX

HDD SAMSUNG 320GB

I try to send the logs this night.

ACPI ver is 3.14

e-co:

eComStation 2.0 RC6a?

Intel motherboard => BIOS Setup: USB Legacy = Off (do you have this?)

Intel MB usually works with /SMP /APIC /CD

check config.sys: AMOUSE.SYS SMP (not /SMP)

[Daniel Ventura]

Ok.

eComStation 2.0 RC6a

Enabled USB Legacy, but keyboard and mouse don't works, and system hangs in ECs screen splash.

Intel MB usually works with /SMP /APIC /CD -> system hangs in ECs screen splash again

Checked AMOUSE.SYS SMP -> That's correctc.

Some Ideas?

ACPI with no options OK but one time system at 99,9% when using firefox and in a minute hangs.

This time, when boot without options, the system appears to be stable. I can extract the logs.

1st do log with boot as psd=acpi.psd , attach log here. Then try psd=acpi.psd /SMP, next psd=acpi.psd /SMP /APIC

Pasha:

ACPI logs -> APIC values are absent for 2 devices

у него на 2 девайса отсуствует значение APIC

[Daniel Ventura]

Log of 3.15 (PSD=acpi.psd ) no options

[Daniel Ventura]

NOTE: I download ACPI315PRE.ZIP not found ACPI315.ZIP like instructions

PSD=ACPI.PSD -> System starts, mouse don`t works, sound works

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP -> System starts, mouse works and ecenter don't works, shutdown stops in "Initializing, please wait..." ¿May be ecenter blocking? Control-Alt-Del to restart next option..

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC -> Don't works, Photo attached

[Daniel Ventura]

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /ACPI (version 3.15)

[pasha]

Now /APIC can't work in your system. As I see you are use SNAP. Do you cut video memory for SNAP?

[Daniel Ventura]

Replying to pasha:

Do you cut video memory for SNAP?

no?

What is this? Instructions?

[pasha]

gaoption.exe vidmem HowManyMemory, I think, that 16Mb be powerfull for any case

[Daniel Ventura]

Sorry I used panorama, but i have been instaled SNAP and now frezzes in "SciTech SNAP Graphics ...." before Desktop load.

NOTE Control+Alt+Del works at this point

I will revert to panorama

I remember when installing if SNAP was selelected installer doesn't shows

[Daniel Ventura]

Now with PANORAMA drivers ...

PSD=ACPI.PSD -> System starts, mouse now works, sound works

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP -> System starts, mouse works and ecenter don't works,sound works, killing ecenter, system shutdown well ..

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC -> Don't works, same photo 100_4489.jpg

[Daniel Ventura]

I tried with PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /R as I read in other ticket and now mouse don't works and ecenter is frozen (don't shows in screen). Keyboard works.

Then.. I comment (REM) the UNIAUD LINES in config.sys and then mouse works. (ecenter don't works again). Border of Windows command prompt not drawed.

Then I added option /MCPU:4 and this time ecenter loads and system works (no audio remember)

Now I delete /MCPU:4 option and another time ecenter blocks.

Next, I added again /MCPU:8 and ecenter don't works again.

I make me crazy!!!

[pasha]

Don't warry, be happy ;-) Step by step. Do pls ​http://ecomstation.ru/projects/acpitools/?action=logs.

Next why you have work with 4 CPU and don't work with 8 CPU. It is low memory. Try decrease cache size for IFS, remove not using drivers... try /MCPU: from 5 to 7

[Daniel Ventura]

I have tried with /MCPU:5 working without audio driver, also with /MCPU:6 and /MCPU:7

When I tried /MCPU:8... upps ecenter bloqued. I removed many drivers like IFS's floppy mmos2 HPFS, but don't works

Surprise I tried /MCPU:7 and ecenter don't works!!!! /MCPU:6 and 5 and don't works.

Finally /MCPU:4 works again, actived drivers, works also.

Maybe a ecenter bug!!!!?????

[Daniel Ventura]

With five CPUs

[Daniel Ventura]

eight CPUs but ecenter don't works and many dev deleted

[pasha]

Try disable CPU meter in eCenter. For resolve your APIC problem I need in ​http://ecomstation.ru/projects/acpitools/?action=logs

[Daniel Ventura]

This morning i start the PC and with the last configuration that yesterday works...ecenter blocked, and mouse don't works. I do a hard-reset and the same configuration and now ecenter works and mouse too. (ACPI.PSD /MCPU /R /MCPU:4)

Yesterday i deleted widget of CPU meter. Is this disable CPU meter or may be is needed to do some else?

Another one.. With wath configuration you need the logs? What level logs you need?

[Daniel Ventura]

\SMP \R \MCPU:6

[Daniel Ventura]

\SMP \R \MCPU:6

[Daniel Ventura]

\SMP \R \MCPU:6

[pasha]

I need in output from "AcpiIRQ 1"

[Daniel Ventura]

executed with /SMP /R /MCPU:4 (Today works with 4 CPU)

[Steven Levine]

This testcase build has been renamed ACPI315-09_11_2009.ZIP

[Daniel Ventura]

mouse problems were not due to ACPI (I think).

In one of these stops I unplug the receiver and plug it again and then the mouse worked.

[Daniel Ventura]

I downloaded the ACPI515_09-05-2009.ZIP and tried it. With /SMP /R /MCPU:8 works. Sometimes mouse stops, but unplugging it and plugging works. Many times ecenter don't show then I do many things and a windows says "ecenter do not respond.... etc" -> Finalize ecenter. this 2 or 3 times and reloading ecenter then works.

Today it is working with 8 processors.

Can I help you? Do you want that I do something to try another options?

[pasha]

Attach acpi.log and output from attached exe. I know where is problem with your /APIC, need time for resolve

[Daniel Ventura]

Results DosQuery....

[Daniel Ventura]

copy acpica% somefile.log it's blank. I'm sorry. Attached result of DosQuerySysInfo

[pasha]

copy acpica$ acpi.log ;-)

[Daniel Ventura]

Sorry that is (my silly finger press the wrong key), yes it is blank. No result

[pasha]

Chack in %etc%\acpid.cfg AcpiLog =

acpi log is need

[Daniel Ventura]

acpi log before install new driver

[Daniel Ventura]

acpica.log after install new version

[Daniel Ventura]

Options /SMP /APIC -> System hangs in boot -> photo attached Options /SMP /R -> System boots, ecenter blocked Options /SMP /R /MCPU:6 -> Works (like previus version)

Do you want to try other options?

can you attach output from this AcpiIRQ 1 ?
