"Windows Crash Dump Analysis - Pinpointing Faulty Drivers with ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:43:28

I've been having problems with my system lately random freezes or crashes (BSOD. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL etc). Since the system passes memtest86+ and Vista memory tests and it is updated to the latest and greatest patch level. I'm pretty sure the problems are caused by 3rd party drivers. I'm going to use a very overlooked tool in Windows and that is the "". This tool has been a part of Windows systems ever since Windows 2000 and it's an invaluable tool in debugging faulty drivers. You'll need to run the tool manually just start - run - verifier exe. A wizzard will pop up. You'll need to create custom settings. Select individual settings from a full list and pick everything but "Low resource simulation". You can now either pick unsigned drivers (the usual suspects since signed drivers are usually tested) or select driver names from a list (pick the ones you most suspect.. recently installed before crashes appeared and so on). Make sure you don't pick ALL drivers on your machine that's quite painful. In my case. I've picked drivers not provided by Microsoft. To be more specific the Intel Turbo Memory (Robson) Driver since this is a Santa Rosa platform laptop and Turbo Memory isn't really know for it's stability or performance boosts. In fact some laptop providers like HP have said to Turbo Memory iaStor sys is the Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver and ianvstor sys is the Intel Turbo Memory (Robson) driver. Both install with the Intel Turbo Memory driver. In case you're more worried about it's actual usefulness than security issues (people reading data from the solid state device) or stability issues take a look at this article:Once you're done rebooting make sure you check the results tab:After this change you'll need to reboot your system and wait for a crash to occur. Just in case your system will freeze it's generally a good idea to boot your system in Debugging Mode (F8 at startup) and make sure you have full memory dumps and enabled. Once you've managed to obtain a crash dump (either by a BSOD or connected a debugger to a hanged system and typing dump or even crashing the system yourself with Ctrl - Scroll Lock - Scroll Lock in case of a hang) you'll need to analyze it. For this task you'll need (WinDbg) and a Debugging Symbols Server. You can grab them off Microsoft's website. Just make sure they're the right ones for your system. Once you've got yourself a debugging environment set up open WinDbg pick File - Open Crash Dump (Ctrl - D) and open the fresh memory dump (C:\Windows\MEMORY. DMP by default - check the to make sure). As we can see in the image it did not find any debugging symbols for the iaStor sys and iaNvStor sys drivers (the Intel Turbo Memory Drivers) since they are 3rd party drivers. We're going to type "!analyze -v" to get more details on the error. Looking at the stack we can see:WARNING: Stack unwind information not available. Following frames may be wrong.88fafd00 80673529 85f2b0e8 8593d194 b92b8f00 iaStor+0x3cf51That's the Intel TurboMemory driver (well the Intel Matrix Storage Manager to be more exact). Since this is a Core 2 system we have CPU 0 and CPU 1. To run instructions on CPU 1 we need to switch to it using the ~1 command. We're going to examine the stack on both CPU's: 0: kd> ~00: kd> kChildEBP RetAddra9563bb0 81ce8651 hal!KeReleaseQueuedSpinLock+0x26a9563c14 81ce86f6 nt!ExFreePoolWithTag+0xae7a9563c24 81dec9ae nt!ExFreePool+0xfa9563c60 81d3949b nt!ObOpenObjectByName+0x47ba9563d2c 81d39258 nt!CmOpenKey+0x1b1a9563d50 81c8c92a nt!NtOpenKey+0x39a9563d50 77ae0f34 nt!KiFastCallEntry+0x12aWARNING: Frame IP not in any known module.

From this list. I've selected the two drivers we're interested in: 8065d000 80699000 iaNvStor (no symbols)Loaded symbol image file: iaNvStor sysImage path: \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\iaNvStor sysImage name: iaNvStor sysTimestamp: Sun Mar 11 10:11:01 2007 (45F3B995)CheckSum: 000423B0ImageSize: 0003C000Translations: 0000.04b0 0000.04e0 0409.04b0 0409.04e082942000 82a00000 iaStor (no symbols)Loaded symbol image file: iaStor sysImage path: \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\iaStor sysImage name: iaStor sysTimestamp: Mon Feb 12 22:46:47 2007 (45D0D237)CheckSum: 0004966DImageSize: 000BE000Translations: 0000.04b0 0000.04e0 0409.04b0 0409.04e0 This tells us the driver version and timestamp to let us know if an update is in order. Usually old drivers are suspect. Useful commands: !poolused if pool tagging is on (by default on 2003+) displays kernel memory usage pools by pool tag and allows you to map the pools back to the drivers. Mapping it for 3rd party drivers require you to grep printable strings in the driver. See "!poolused c". Since all results point at the Turbo Memory drivers and while working I've got another couple of crashes with similar results (Probably caused by : iaNvStor sys ( iaNvStor+3523 )). I've got two choices here: either look for updates or remove the driver and stop using Turbo Memory. Since most benchmarks say it doesn't provide an actual performance boost and may provide a mild battery boost. I concluded it's safer to just remove the driver and stop using Turbo Memory on this machines. The Windows Experience Index on this machine is 4.7 with Turbo Memory enabled. 4.7 with Turbo Memory caching disabled. No change in performance (Sure the Experience Index may be no proper benchmark but it's more than relevant in this case). Seeing how disabling the caching didn't affect performance. I simply removed the software from my machine. Big mistake. Uninstalling the Turbo Memory software also gave this neat little error when booting Windows:Please insert the Windows recovery CD. Windows failed to load because a critical System driver is missing or corrupt.\WINDOWS\System32\DRIVERS\iaStor sys Well that was fun. At least restoring BOOTSECT managed to fix things. Final Words:A vast majority of Windows crashes are caused either by:Unstable hardware: My advice is simple: avoid such drivers at all costs. The functionality they add is minor and the risks and stability problems are not worth it. If your keyboard's "Email" button requires a kernel module forget about it the idea is broken by design. And remember if you have problems make sure you obtain a memory dump for analysis and always perfrom a hardware test before blaming it on software: a full POST a test a CPU Prime95 test monitor system temperatures and disk data with check your hardware cabling and such then look at the software. Mainly at the drivers: remove unneeded 3rd party drivers software (use ) and hardware install the latest driver versions update to the latest Windows patchlevel.

"Email Verifier - wanna check whether that address is real or not?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 21:45:19

Short sweet simple does what it says on the tin. Checks to see whether an email address actually exists. We suggest you bookmark it on your smartphone and the next time a girl gives you her address at the bar run it through the system there and then. Hey it’ll deliver you buying any more Pina Coladas won’t it? I just tried it on one of my own domains with a valid email address. It returned ‘Bad’. Looks desire a few populate might be missing golden opportunities at that Pina Colada bar… Ummm… is anyone else concerned about spam? This seems like a really easy way to hive away good email addresses. Maybe the reason the service is so unreliable is because mail servers don’t believe it. Something to evaluate about…
