boot problem
We've been having a boot-up problem involving our sound card. Usually,
on cold boot, windows doesn't recognize that the card has been installed and tries to reinstall it. We cancel the reinstall and let the computer finish booting and then reboot. Windows finds the installation on reboot. This is the section of the bootlog (on cold boot) where the sound card usually loads: [0010CF34] Loading PNP drivers of Intel(R) PRO/100B PCI Adapter (TX) (PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1229&SUBSYS_00018086&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_0F&FUNC_00) [0010CF34] Loading PNP drivers of STB nVidia ZXV 8MB (PCI\VEN_12D2&DEV_0018&SUBSYS_222A10B4&REV_21\0008 00) [0010CF34] Loaded PNP drivers of STB nVidia ZXV 8MB (PCI\VEN_12D2&DEV_0018&SUBSYS_222A10B4&REV_21\0008 00) [0010CF34] Loading PNP drivers of U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [0010CF34] Dynamic load device wmldr.vxd [0010CF35] Dynamic init device WMLDR [0010CF35] Dynamic init success WMLDR [0010CF35] Dynamic load success wmldr.vxd [0010CF35] Loaded PNP drivers of U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [0010CF35] Starting U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [0010CF35] Dynamic load device [0010CF35] Dynamic load failed : [0010CF35] File not found [0010CF35] Started U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [0010CF35] Loading PNP drivers of Primary IDE controller (dual fifo) (MF\CHILD0000\PCI&VEN_8086&DEV_7111&SUBSYS_0000000 0&REV_01&BUS_00&DEV_07 &FUNC_01) This is the same section of the bootlog after reboot: [00115D1B] Loading PNP drivers of Intel(R) PRO/100B PCI Adapter (TX) (PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1229&SUBSYS_00018086&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_0F&FUNC_00) [00115D1B] Loading PNP drivers of TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1B] Dynamic load device asp4init.vxd [00115D1B] Dynamic init device ASP4INIT [00115D1B] Dynamic init success ASP4INIT [00115D1B] Dynamic load success asp4init.vxd [00115D1B] Starting TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1B] Started TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1F] Loaded PNP drivers of TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1F] Enumerating TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1F] Enumerated TBS Montego Multifunction PCI Platform (PCI\VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_33555053&REV_02\BUS_ 00&DEV_10&FUNC_00) [00115D1F] Loading PNP drivers of STB nVidia ZXV 8MB (PCI\VEN_12D2&DEV_0018&SUBSYS_222A10B4&REV_21\0008 00) [00115D1F] Loaded PNP drivers of STB nVidia ZXV 8MB (PCI\VEN_12D2&DEV_0018&SUBSYS_222A10B4&REV_21\0008 00) [00115D1F] Loading PNP drivers of U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [00115D1F] Dynamic load device wmldr.vxd [00115D20] Dynamic init device WMLDR [00115D20] Dynamic init success WMLDR [00115D20] Dynamic load success wmldr.vxd [00115D20] Loaded PNP drivers of U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [00115D20] Starting U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [00115D20] Dynamic load device [00115D20] Dynamic load failed : [00115D20] File not found [00115D20] Started U.S. Robotics x2 Winmodem Fax (ISAPNP\USR0014\71258043) [00115D20] Loading PNP drivers of Primary IDE controller (dual fifo) (MF\CHILD0000\PCI&VEN_8086&DEV_7111&SUBSYS_0000000 0&REV_01&BUS_00&DEV_07 &FUNC_01) [00115D20] Loading PNP drivers of Secondary IDE controller (dual fifo) (MF\CHILD0001\PCI&VEN_8086&DEV_7111&SUBSYS_0000000 0&REV_01&BUS_00&DEV_07 &FUNC_01) [00115D20] Loading PNP drivers of TBS Montego PCI Audio (MF\CHILD0000\PCI&VEN_12EB&DEV_0001&SUBSYS_3355505 3&REV_02&BUS_00&DEV_10 &FUNC_00) [00115D20] Dynamic load device mmdevldr.vxd [00115D21] Dynamic init device MMDEVLDR Would appreciate any help fixing this problem.

boot problem
This symptom (warm works, cold does not) typically signifies a hardware
problem. Suggest you pull out the card and then reseat it to see if that makes a difference. If it doesn't, maybe you could borrow a sound card to see if the card is the problem. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "*selah*" wrote in message ...

boot problem
Bill,
I have noticed this advice being recommended several times in this group, maybe by you, and I would like to know what possible consequences might ensue on this change and (thus) why I see the BIOS set to PnP OS = "NO" on the win98 systems I have had the opportunity to look at. This is the Default setting on my personal machine so I suppose it might be on others and never got changed. Regards, ern. "Bill Watt" wrote in message ...

boot problem
Setting it yes tells the BIOS that the operating system has Plug and Play support. When set to no it means the OS (Windows 9x) is not plug&pay aware, which it is. The BIOS typically sets up the keyboard, monitor, drives and floppy which are the essentials for DOS. You have PNP loads missing in the Bootlog.txt file at the end of the file, which is where it stopped on the cold boot. That's why I thought it was worth a try. If changing the setting does not help then change it back. ____________________more information______________ Plug and Play Aware OS This setting is shown on only some BIOSes. If present, enabling this tells the BIOS that you are using an operating system that supports the Plug and Play specification (such as Windows 95). When enabled, the BIOS will look for and initialize any Plug and Play cards in the system. Enable the setting if using Windows 95 or another Plug and Play compatible OS. The default is normally "Disabled". Note: Some BIOSes will perform the initialization of Plug and Play cards automatically regardless of the operating system being used, and will thus not have this setting. Some will work fine with Plug and Play regardless of how this option is set. However, on some systems that have this setting, Plug and Play may not function properly if the setting is disabled. ______________________end quote_______________ Regards, Bill Watt Computer Help and Information http://home.ptd.net/~bwatt/ __________________________________________________ __________ On Mon, 16 Jan 2006 23:00:36 -0000, "ernie" wrote: Bill, I have noticed this advice being recommended several times in this group, maybe by you, and I would like to know what possible consequences might ensue on this change and (thus) why I see the BIOS set to PnP OS = "NO" on the win98 systems I have had the opportunity to look at. This is the Default setting on my personal machine so I suppose it might be on others and never got changed. Regards, ern. "Bill Watt" wrote in message .. .

Ernie, Looks like I got you mixed up with Selah. I trust your Bootlog.txt file is ok. :-) Regards, Bill Watt Computer Help and Information http://home.ptd.net/~bwatt/ __________________________________________________ ____ On Tue, 17 Jan 2006 02:55:35 -0500, Bill Watt wrote: You have PNP loads missing in the Bootlog.txt file at the end of the file, which is where it stopped on the cold boot.

This should force the BIOS to initialise the PnP devices as best it can. - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. |
