Event: 5 Source: nvstor32
A parity error was detected on \Device\RaidPort0.


This is ugly. Don't know why Windows insists on setting up a RAID driver when you don't use Raid. You can try and find a newer version of nvstor32.sys and see if that helps. Other people report that reverting back to the Windows drivers solves the problem. I know the Intel RAID driver has a similar problem. Intel claims it is because the SATA drive is not following the specification exactly. There is a registry fix for Intel. Don't know if it would help for nvstor or not.

Let's see if you have an equivalent registry key:

reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\nvstor32 /s > %userprofile%\desktop\junk.txt
notepad %userprofile%\desktop\junk.txt

Start, All Programs, Accessories, right click on Command Prompt and Run as Administrator, Continue. Right click and Paste or Edit then Paste and the copied lines should appear.
Hit Enter. Notepad should open. IF you have any text, copy and paste it in a reply.

The driver is part of the nvidia chipset so see if your PC maker (or motherboard maker if it's home brew) has a new driver for you.

Sometimes it helps to go into Power Options and make sure that turn off hard drive is set to Never.

There is a registry option that I have seen work on some systems:

To try the registry edit:

Copy the text between the lines of stars:

********************************
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\nvstor32\Parameters\Port0]
"LPM"=dword:00000000
"LPMDSTATE"=dword:00000000
"DIPM"=dword:00000000

************************

Open Notepad. Paste in the copied text. File, Save As, (to your desktop), "LPMfix.reg" OK. You must have the quotes around LPMfix.reg or it will not work. Close notepad. Right click on LPMfix.reg and Merge. Allow the merge.

Clear alarms and reboot and run VEW again to see if it helped.

Sometimes it just helps to go into Device Manager and uninstall the device. (Probably called AHCI/RAID Controller. Right click on it and select Properties then Driver then Driver Details and look to see if nvstor32.sys is used. If so, Uninstall the driver using the button on the Driver page.) Then Clear alarms and reboot and run VEW again to see if it helped.

While I am digesting your last post, do you want me to hit the FixMBR button - I still have the program open from last night?

Checked - latest driver installed but it doesn't say it's anything to do with RAID??

I think things look ok? But I am happy to uninstall and reinstall nvstor32.sys provided I have a screen display to work with.

Go back into the same place in Device Manager and click on Port 0 and make a screenshot like you did before. I'm curious what it says.


To uninstall the driver you just click on the Uninstall button and reboot. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver.

Windows installed one set of drivers and then another set with a system restart on each. After the second restart, a network connection had to be established by using diagnose and repair. Also I have been unable to print anything.

here are the VEW files

Clear and Reset the printer spooler:

Ran the batch file ok

Tried to remove the Lex drivers but not allowed by system
lex1.jpg


And following error message event viewer

The document Test Page, owned by Dad, failed to print on printer Lexmark X543 XL. Try to print the document again, or restart the print spooler.

Data type: NT EMF 1.008. Size of the spool file in bytes: 115152. Number of bytes printed: 115092. Total number of pages in the document: 1. Number of pages printed: 1. Client computer: \\DAD-PC. Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 1. Incorrect function.


As an afterthought, before I posted to G2G I tried to set up printing while in safe mode by adding this reg key:

REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network\SpSpooler /VE /T REG_SZ /F /D Service

Would that have casued these printing problems? I can't find that key in the registry so maybe not?

One other piece of possible evidence relating to the printing snag in my previous post was that I had earlier tried to uninstall/reinstall the Lex drivers using the printer server properties when the remove button was enabled, and this is what happened:

lex.jpg

And now the remove button is greyed out. All very curious.

I am sorry about this never-ending string of problems that I keep presenting to you, but I do I think we are very close to resolution.

I won't be able to access my machine until Monday afternoon. Have a good Labour (sic) Day holiday

See if you can uninstall your Lexmark software using the Control Panel, Programs and Features. Then download it again and reinstall it.
