190 IRQ's???
I have been researching my ACPI errors...you know like this one:
Log Name: System Source: ACPI Description: IRQARB: ACPI BIOS does not contain an IRQ for the device in PCI slot 13, function 0. Please contact your system vendor for technical assistance. And in looking into my IRQ's and sharing I fould that Vista created 190 IRQ's....which I guess is ok except for the fact that it shares about 14 of them and does nothing with the other 176 , while at the same time complains that I don't have drivers for 4 of them and gives me errors in event viewer on every boot. Anyone with an A8N SLI Premium having similar issues? and would changing the computer driver to "Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI PC)" help sort this out? OR should I just not worry about it? To be truthfull Other than lack of good drivers , game performance , some compatibilty issuse with older programs...standard new OS growing pains , my system is running very well , BUT these errors bother me , especially since the error reporter tells me this has been solved by ASUS...and it hasn't , and I have this wierd feeling that I am getting performance issues from this. thanks for any helpfull ideas , info or links , (but if you are just going to be snippy and rude please do it to someone else...thanks , too much of that going on here) |

I would bet a good number of computers react the same way...if people were to look at their event viewer. Here's a quote from the MS Knowledge base: "CAUSE This error message may occur on a computer that uses a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bridge that supports message-signaled interrupts but does not support line-based interrupts RESOLUTION This error message may safely be ignored. Note Do not ignore this error message if the following conditions are true: . A yellow explanation mark (!) appears next to the device in Device Manager. . You receive the following error message in the Properties dialog box for the device in Device Manager: This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12) In this scenario, a different issue may be causing the symptoms. Take additional steps to troubleshoot this issue" http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930062/en-us Took me several days of hunting to find this. I am also getting 10 errors that relate to the NVATABUS in event viewer on boot up and found that has to do with having a CD drive on the second IDE channel. Everything works great on my system so that's nothing to worry about either. HTH!, Bob |

Thanks for the link Bob , it eases my mind a bit. I wonder though If I was to change the Computer driver to the Advanced Configuration Interface if it would condense my IRQ's? Well , its running ok so I'm gonna let it go , I already had to reinstall Vista once this month |

Well , its running ok so I'm gonna let it go , I already had to reinstall Vista once this month I would bet that our boot time would decrease if there were a way to eliminate the messages as it must take some time for Vista to generate the messages...but there doesn't seem to be any way to do that. Maybe MS will provide a way to skip over this during boot eventually. My guess is that changing to Advanced Configuration and Power Interface wouldn't make a difference. I'm running a dual core AMD X64 processor, MSI MB with NForce 4 sli chipset and wondered where the "multiprocessor" designation went...I found out that MS doesn't use that nomenclature anymore...in case anyone questions the entry under "computer" in hardware devices. I'd also like to eliminate the NVATABUS error messages but the only way anyone has done that was to remove their cd/dvd drive from the second IDE channel....but I need my cd connected there. Bob |
