VSuite Ramdisk Public 1.8.3601.2338, Windows XP SP3 32bit, 4GB of RAM.
Created the ramdisk 1016MB in size from the "invisible" memory (1020MB was free from the start) specifying that the contents of the ramdisk should be saved to C:\ramdiskz.vdf during the shutdown. The filesystem was FAT. Drive letter - Z:.
Rebooted. It looked like the shutdown went normally (something was saving to HDD). During the boot-up the system made OOPS. Error code: 0x000000D1 (0x0A0C865B, 0x000000FF, 0x00000001, 0x8A417023).
Crash dump was not created although it should have been according to system settings.
The size of the image file was exactly 1016MB as I've checked in SafeMode.
If the image file for the ramdisk is not enabled the system boots normally with the same settings.
BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled) Topic is solved
Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
Thank you for your detail bug report.
We'd like to get some extra information regarding your problem.
1) Do you use "above 4G" option for your graphic adapter? For eg, on your BIOS setting, there may be an item called "IGP Memory Addressing" or similar item, the value can be "above 4G" or "below 4G". If use "above 4G", it will conflict with the ramdisk with Invisable Memory enabled.
2) Could you try to crate a ramdisk with 100MB IM used to test if the image file can be loaded normally?
3) Is it the first version (1.8.3601.2338) you used? Did you use the previous version before, for eg. V1.6.3518.2339? Just want to know if this problem occurrs only in v1.8.3601.2338.
Because there's no mini crash dump file created, a little hard for us to locate the root cause...

Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
I have a discrete video card with 1GB of RAM onboard so I don't have any settings in BIOS concerning IGP memory addressing. My BIOS also doesn't have "memory remap" option.support wrote:1) Do you use "above 4G" option for your graphic adapter?

That gave me another BSOD. But this time it occured right after I pressed the "Add" button in VSuite Ramdisk GUI. The settings were the same as in my first post except for the size of the ramdisk (100MB of IM this time). Also the crash dump was created. Windbg gave me this:2) Could you try to crate a ramdisk with 100MB IM used to test if the image file can be loaded normally?

Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
If the ramdisk is created from the memory visible to OS no BSODs are occuring. Saving to & restoring from the image file works just fine.
Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
hmmm, could you provide the hardware information, especially about CPU and motherboard? Are you using AMD cpu?
And could you send the this crash dump file to us? [email protected]
From the crump file, problem is related to intelppm.sys. If you would like to help us do a test at first, you may disable this driver: at registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Intelppm
change the 'Start' value to '4'.
After reboot, create the ramdisk using 100MB IM again to see what would happen.

No. But I think I can provide you with some info from it. Just ask.And could you send the this crash dump file to us? [email protected]
Ramdisk created normally but after reboot during boot-up I got the same 0x000000D1 BSOD.From the crump file, problem is related to intelppm.sys. If you would like to help us do a test at first, you may disable this driver: at registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Intelppm

Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
Well, we find a possible cause. But we cannot verify and dont know if it is relating to this problem. If you would like to help us do a test, we will send you the test version later.
Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
Hi All,
I just experienced something very similar.
1. I have enabled the usage of hidden memory and successfuly created and destroyed Ramdisk. (no image)
2. Than I have configured Ramdisk to use the hodden memory as well to use the image. (As soon as I have confirmed creation of the file and save on shutdown), the computer immediately reset.
3. After boot: I repeated (2) to eliminate any conflict. The same result, computer rebooted.
4. After boot: I have created/started the ramdrive without the image. (Everything ok.) Than I have enabled the image for that drive. (I confirmed the dialog, stating that some settings will be effective after the reboot.)
5. I initiated the restart. (Computer got stuck during the shutdown process.)
6. I restarted via power-off, power-on.
7. During the boot process, it crashed to bsod with the same bugcheck. (I cannot confirm the other arguments, because I don't remember them.) ( Crashdump wasn't created... The reason for this might be, that I have got pagefile completely disabled.)
My version is 1.8.3601.2338
My computer is Dell Latitude D630, 4GB ram. Ramdrive (512MB) is mapped to Z:, NTFS
Graphic card: Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family. (Probably, that it is integrated with shared memory or st. like that... I don;t have an access to bios, so I cannot check the settings.)
intelppm.sys: 5.1.2600.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158) ... (I am a little bit hesitating to disable it, as it seems to be "Processor Device Driver". I assume, that disabling it will make the system use some compatibility diver... Which is something, I don't really want.)

Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
Perhaps we can get a computer same type as yours later. We will try to solve this problem. So far we have received total 3 reports of this bug.
Re: BSOD 0x000000D1 at boot-up (saving to image file - enabled)
hello
just installed ramdisk personal edition.
specs: dell optiplex 745, c2d 6700, 4gb ram (only 2,99 seen), onboard graphics (intel 3100), winxp pro sp3 32bit.
just got the same exception as the guys before me.
i'm using hidden memory. it crashed when i selected the option to use image file. if i do not select this option then all goes ok. the thing is that after i rebooted then it was also generating the same error. safe mode was not functional. what saved me was: "use the last settings that worked". (this is funny 'coz this option never vorked before in my relationship with windows xp )
i've made disks sizes: 500mb, 1020mb, 1000mb. only thing that seemed to matter was wheteher image file was enabled or not. when trying to recreate a new drive using the old image size it also threw an error and windows just restarted. i think that the image file gets corrupted when windows tries to save it's content on windows shutdown.
please help.
