The "fix" (I guess) is merely a setting in the IDE driver provided by nVidia nForce drivers. Device Manager->ATA/IDE->nForce.... or something. I do not use the nVidia drivers, thus, the NCQ disabling is not available.

There is no virtual drive software for Vista x64 that I'm aware of.

I had some probs with the PATA drivers from nForce with my recent ASUS 8N-E mobo. Its the nForce drivers which cause the problem. In the device manager goto the IDE/ATA/ATAPI section, get the properties of the nVidia Parallel ATA an do a Roll Back on the Driver tab. You will then get a standard Microsoft driver, which works just as fine as long you have no freaky RAID/Mirror in use.

Mobo Firmware and nForce driver updates are mentioned as being helpfull, but since this worked for me, i haven't tried it.

I just tried to install Daemon Tools for the first time and am having this BSOD error. Happens with Alcohol 120% and 52% too. I tried most of the fixes here but none of them worked

My machine wasnt booting after i installed DT, so i went through trying to fnd out what was conflicting with the SPTD.sys.

Finally after a couple of hours unplugging things i found that my logitech webcam pro 5000 was to blame, if i have the webcam plugged in my machine wont boot, if i unplug it the machine will boot on the other hand if i remove SPTD.sys i can boot my machine with my webcam in.

I was wondering if anyone else has found this or what would be better if anyone knows a fix for this?

Thanks

Did you try SPTD 1.25?

I have the same Quickcam from Logitech. I had never problems together with Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120% together on my old ASUS board with AMD Processor.

I just bought a "MSI 945P Neo2-F" board and a "Intel P-DUAL 940" processor and now the system doesn't boot after installing daemon Tools or Alcohol 120%.

Strangely for me, my desktop system hanged after installing the latest SPTD driver, but worked again after a cold reboot, but I didnt have any problems on my laptop.

**DezLint** · 04.07.2006, 23:49

Well installing SPTD version 1.25 has fixed my problem so far,4 succesful boots. Yay

I guess the problem is partially solved only.
I have a new computer which i set up from ground.

Windows XP / SP2 / Winfuture Update Pack 2.11

There was never any old version on it before which could have made some trouble.

Tried to install Daemon Tools 4.03.
1.) It installed the sptd stuff.

2.) It rebooted propperly after that.

3.) It Finished the Installation of daemontools.

4.) Didn't boot anymore.

Same Problem with Alcohol 120% (tried on a restored clean image)
