Constant Clock Interrupt BSODs

Lateralus · Oct 9, 2012

Hello,

I experience consistent clock interrupt BSODs on my Lenovo T430s. It happens on average every 2 days. I am posting according to the guidelines from the sticky. jcgriff2 BSOD File Collection app got stuck at "Waiting for System Info", I have stopped it after about 1 hour.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thank you very much,
Stephan

Only 121 updates since SP1 - most systems have 130 to 140. Please visit Windows Update and get ALL available updates.

I'm unfamiliar with your H5321 gw Mobile Broadband Device. Is it possible to disable this device in the BIOS (or to remove it from the system). If so, please try that in order to test it. Win7 doesn't like wireless USB devices - but this isn't exactly a wireless USB device (as it relates to mobile broadband rather than wifi) - so it's just a guess on my part. There are lot's of drivers from this device present in the memory dumps (while this may not be significant, it's something to pay attention to).

There's less than 10% free space on your SSD. Windows requires 15% free space for optimum operation. While you may not notice the performance impact just yet, it will get consistently worse until you free up more space (about 20 gB free in total).

Daemon Tools (and Alcohol % software) are known to cause BSOD's on some Win7 systems (mostly due to the sptd.sys driver, although I have seen dtsoftbus01.sys blamed on several occasions).
Please un-install the program, then use the following free tool to ensure that the troublesome sptd.sys driver is removed from your system (pick the 32 or 64 bit system depending on your system's configuration): ~~http://www.duplexsecure.com/faq#remove_32sptd~~ Link broken as of 21 Jul 2012
New link (15 Aug 2012): http://www.duplexsecure.com/downloads (pick the appropriate version for your system and select "Un-install" when you run it).

Manual procedure here: http://daemonpro-help.com/en/problems_and_solutions/registry_and_sptd_problems.html

If these things don't stop the BSOD's, then please start running these free hardware diagnostics: http://www.carrona.org/hwdiag.html
Also, please check in C:\Windows for a file named MEMORY.dmp If you find it, please let us know. Then zip it up and upload it to a free file-hosting service and post a link to it here. Thanks!

First of all, thanks for the very swift reply!

There were only 2 updates missing, usually I am quite diligent about this. Windows Update does not find any more recommended or optional updates, so no idea how I could get to 140 ...

This is some Ericsson Mobile Broadband stuff, delivered officially through Lenovo Update. No option in the BIOS, so I disabled this via device manager and then uninstalled via "Uninstall program".

No full dump there at the moment. Do I need to enable this explicitly (I remember that there was one a couple of weeks ago when I checked it with WinDbg, maybe this got cleaned up by CCleaner or something?

Again, thanks so much for your help!

usasma · Oct 9, 2012

Don't worry about the Windows Updates as long as you've checked for them. Each system is different and I just use the average number to determine if I should suggest that you check for more.

You can run the hardware diagnostics now. That way you'll get a head start on them if they're needed.

Don't explicitly setup the large MEMORY.dmp file - just check after the next BSOD.
The way that STOP 0x101's occur, there just isn't that much info in the minidumps
But there isn't that much info in the big MEMORY.dmp - but it may include clues that aren't in the minidump

Just FYI - if you disable devices in Windows, periodically check back and
- enable the device
- update it's drivers
- disable the device
Sometimes the system will load the drivers before it gets to the point where it disables the device - so the drivers may still be in memory. It's not a big issue, but it does impact on the memory space that Windows is using.

EDIT: Please don't use CCleaner until we're finished.

Lateralus · Oct 9, 2012

Update:

- BSOD again, after taking all the steps described above.
- MEMORY.dmp was generated, uploaded at:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/996055/MEMORY.zip

- Will commence with bootable hardware tests (memtest86 and hd diagnostics). For Hardware: In addition to the SSD (where windows is installed), I have a removable large HDD for data (Ultrabay slot, where you can insert HDD/optical drive) - do I need to test the latter as well?

Edit: Testing the Ultrabay HDD would be more difficult, since it goes in the same slot (Ultrabay) where I insert the optical drive for the bootable disk ...

usasma · Oct 9, 2012

The hardware tests are needed to test the hardware that was in the system when the crash occurred.
If the Ultrabay HDD wasn't in the system when the BSOD's occurred - then it's not necessary to test it.
If it was, then you'll have to see about testing it with a USB device (either a bootable external DVD drive or a bootable USB flash drive)

I'm going to ask for help with the MEMORY.dmp file as I'm not getting anything useful from it!

Lateralus · Oct 10, 2012

No success in narrowing it down so far ...

- I ran Driver Verifier for 8 hours with no errors.
- I ran the vendor-specific Intel Tools for the SSD drive (Intel SSD Toolbox, linked from http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) and the CPU (Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool). The only thing it mentioned for the SSD was that SuperFetch should not be enabled, and it automatically fixed it.
- I ran a non-bootable memtest overnight with no errors, I will run a bootable test this night.

What kind of help do you need?

Lateralus · Oct 10, 2012

Update (sorry don't want to spam this forum, but this seems relevant)

- There is a long thread on the Lenovo forums, where many users complain about this issue: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T5...ue-Screen-and-Stop-Code-101-Issue/td-p/824467

- Corroborating evidence (Wake Forest University orders a batch of T430s, and many faculty staff have this problem) : http://help.wfu.edu/thinkpads/t430s/status
- I am not aware of any official statement regarding this matter yet

So I don't really want to bother the experts on this forum with what (very likely) seems to be a hardware issue not related to memory or hdd. Please feel free to lock this thread in this case, and thanks again for your help!

usasma · Oct 10, 2012

It's most likely relevant - but what if it's not?

The steps that we suggest won't hurt anything
And, there's (apparently) nothing that you can do with Lenovo as they're not putting out the fix (and, it appears that the fix is a new mobo).

Vir Gnarus · Oct 10, 2012

You made sure to restart the PC after setting up Driver Verifier, correct? Otherwise, there will be no effect and your changes will be lost.

I'll take a look at the kernel dump later when it's accessible to me. Don't put much hope in it though; 0x101 bugchecks are a rather tough nut to crack. I do know that often when it happens it's a motherboard/CPU failure (CPU most prevalent). Make sure that BIOS is updated and that all drivers for your motherboard chipset and various mobo components are updated.

As for the Wake Forest University situation, yes, that sounds like it's in the same ballpark, but I can't be sure because they don't actually describe the type of bugcheck they're experiencing. But I wouldn't doubt it's a good possibility. Again, I'll look at what we have here, but it may be best to get that warranty ready.

(Small world, btw. I work at Wake Forest, though at their medical school side. I have had to deal with students owning the Lenovo T430s, but at the moment I am unaware of any blue screen issues with the students I'm responsible over. So I have been oblivious to this problem being mainstream.)

Edit: doh, should've realized you're going to check this out with Lenovo. Reading comprehension is key!

Edit: doh, should've realized you're going to check this out with Lenovo. Reading comprehension is key!

Yes, I did restart the machine after setting up Driver Verifier as instructed on this site. Regarding your statement and usasma's: I will continue testing, but only the bootable memtest remains, which I will do this evening. After that, I have exhausted all testing resources mentioned on this site.

I can not directly check this out with Lenovo, as this T430s notebook was purchased by our university through a third party vendor (something like an authorized reseller, I think), so we need to contact them and hope they are aware of this issue and agree with our assessment.

Addendum: On the Lenovo site, some user described that pulling the AC adapter plug when the BSOD is about to occur helps sometimes, and it did twice for me today. I don't know if it certainly would have BSOD'd, but the symptoms were there: Mouse gets unresponsive, played music starts skipping like a broken record - that's when I know it is about to crash. So I pulled the AC adapter from the docking station as soon as I noticed these symptoms, and it recovered (twice). Don't know what to make of this, as I am no hardware expert, but this is one reason why I have small hope that the memory will prove to be the cause of this ...

Vir Gnarus · Oct 10, 2012

Sounds like some kind of power management issue if it has something to do with the AC Adapter. Perhaps there's some software that came with the system that involves power options like for sleep mode and is bugging things out. Those symptoms personally sound iconic to an interrupt storm, in where I/O hardware interrupts continue to pile up because they aren't being serviced properly, often due to a driver bug. It's best to go through the PC and clean out any bloatware that came with the system, which can be defined as any software that is optional and is not important to the functionality of the PC or for you to be productive with it.

If the kernel dump (MEMORY.DMP) file you provided us reflects a BSOD that you suffered that was generated from these same symptoms (e.g. increased unresponsive behavior, media skipping, etc.) then that will give us some good info on this, whereas a minidump would be absolutely worthless. Again, I'll check on it later as the environment I'm in right now does not allow access to dropbox.

Very good point :smile9:
This bloatware is called "Lenovo Power Manager", part of the "ThinkVantage" tool suite forced upon end users by Lenovo. I uninstalled this a couple of months ago, as I did with all other optional stuff from this suite (I followed this practice with my previous computers from Lenovo as well). BSODs occurred before and after uninstalling, though (the first BSODs already happened a couple of days after receiving the notebook). So I am fairly certain this is not the cause of the issue.

Thank you very much, I am very grateful for all your efforts and those of the other contributors on this site (usasma, jeff ...)!

Don't forget that sometimes this stuff loves to leave behind bits and pieces of itself because of the poor uninstallers that usually come with them (because, come on, why would you ever want to uninstall our immaculate and expedient software?). We can figure this if you send us a saved copy of the Autoruns output (File > Save).

I'm seeing a good number of optional Lenovo gimmick drivers set to load on startup, like Rapidboot driver, Shockproof Disk, Virtual Camera (may be needed for integrated camera), and, yes, even the ThinkPad Power Management Driver - with the Power Management Service still active! You may wanna run through Autoruns yourself and take notice of anything listed. Unchecking the item will disable it from loading on startup, and deleting it will, well, delete it. Best to uncheck first, then delete if you're confident.

Incredible how much crap gets loaded, I totally missed it since it is not listed under the Logon tab. I like to think I am quite careful about keeping unwanted software from my machine as much as possible - I shudder to think how this autoruns tool would look on my mother's computer (who installs every browser toolbar addon piggybacked into other downloads, so her browser toolbar takes up half the screen now) :r1:

That picture never ceases to kill my sides.

Anyways, jokes aside, I personally haven't had that much of an issue sifting through Programs & Features in control panel and removing items that way. Afterwards I will finish up with Autoruns and a look through Program Files folder to ensure everything's been cleaned out. I recommend just going through the same and making sure your system is cleaned of all that is unholy.
