    While digging around, I found out that you have to follow the above procedure, but configure it for all users (only then it would have a chance of working, for some weird reasons anyway).

    So, just look below that Run this Program as administrator option, and you'll find change settings for all users, simply repeat the steps I've described above.

    Please download PC Wizard, its a nice little utility, which tells you everything you need to know about your computer including make/model of your motherboard/chipset etc.

    No problem, go to download CPUZ, and run it, then post its mainboard tab picture, you can do so by selecting CPUZ window then pressing ALT+Print Screen at once; then saving it with any freeware picture utility or if you have MS Office with MS Office Picture Manager.

    Here is the link for your notebook's drivers, have a look at it, and compare the drivers you have currently installed on your computer, and update all older drivers.

    i have been there and download the updater but i dont see it puts any files in the system

    it just say click next to install
    and then i click install and it says done

    form the manual it says it shall be: install -> "put in some files" -> done

    I guess it would be probably better to uninstall current drivers (which ever driver you are updating at that time) and then try installing the newer version.

    Also, as I said in my previous post compare the drivers, i.e. versions installed on your pc and the ones available on the site.
  11. jaboy Newcomer, in training Posts: 31

    what drivers ?!?!
  12. Archean TechSpot Paladin Posts: 5,731   +27

    I was talking about chipset drivers as you earlier said they don't get updated.

    Anyway, I think there is another avenue to explore with regard to maple story if it doesn't work with windows 7 (and if you have pro or ultimate versions); and that is try installing windows xp mode. It may work in that.

    sry I'm lost :confused:

    That is understandable, as such uncommon issues do lots of effort to get resolved. Just in case, when did you had your last BSOD, and can you post the dump?

    I need you to run driver verifier; to see whether it can catch the driver which is causing this.

    The procedure/steps about it are:

    Before proceeding on the following steps please ensure that you can boot your system in safe mode.

    1) Press Windows Key + R (or go to Start, then click on Run..)
    2) Type in 'verifier' and hit enter
    3) Make sure 'Create Standard Setting' is selected and hit next
    4) Click on 'Select all drivers installed on this computer' and hit Finish
    5) Reboot

    There is a possibility that your computer will crash on reboot. If this occurs hit F8 when rebooting just before the windows logo screen and select the safe mode boot option. Follow the same steps above but on step 4 choose 'Select driver names from a list'; hit next; check the box next to any driver where the provider is not Microsoft; hit Finish; reboot.

    This will slow the performance of you computer a little while enabled but will hopefully catch the driver causing corruption. Next time you crash the blue screen will hopefully say something like "DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION". When this occurs please post your new minidump.


    Please note that Driver Verifier will continue to run on every boot up until you run (by going to Start, then to Run):

    verifier /reset
