    Verifying DMI data pool and another problem
    « on: November 28, 2010, 01:34:42 PM »
    My computer BSOD on me and then proceeded to fail at verifying DMI data pool. I have tried to boot from CD, but that has not worked. I've waited for 10 minutes for it to verify and never worked.

    The other problem is that the HDD is showing the remaining amount of space on the drive instead of the full amount of space the drive can hold. It is showing 135GB left when it is a 750GB HDD.

    What is new or different since the last time everything worked properly (ie, new hw, new sw, virus, error, etc)?

      The only new thing is a new game, RB6: Raven shield. No new viruses or anything, well, none that came up so I guess it could be a virus.

      Also, a little update. It now says the HDD is 0MB, and I have tried 2 other HDD and they both say 0MB, 1 actually started booting  the other didn't.  The one that started booting got to the windows logo then said not enough memory.

      You might want to run a diagnostic on your ram.

        How would I do that?

        Also, I just loaded the fail-safe defaults and it now shows the correct size for my HDD, however it still sticks on verifying data pool.

          Didn't have any blank CDs so I took a stick out too see if it changed anything and went past the verifying and stopped at AMD data change ... update new data to DMI! update success. And then I restarted and it stuck at verifying again. So I took out the other and replaced it with the first and it stuck at verifying again.

                  Replace the CMOS battery...

                  Also re-install the MBoard chipset drivers...then re-boot.

                    Replace the battery or just clear the CMOS? Because I have already cleared the CMOS.

                    Also, how would I re-install the mobo chipset drivers?

                    Go to the website of your computer or mobo manufacturer and download and install the correct chipset driver for your system.
