Win7 64bit Blue Screen (ntfs.sys) after reload
Hi Folks,
I have a lenovo w510 and when I initially install the display link it worked great. I usually place my laptop in standy mode but today it was running slow so i tried to restart it. Now everytime win7 boots a get a blue screen with ntfs.sys file and that's it. I am not able to get into my pc Restore to last good known configuration is the only way I can get back to windows and the issue is reproducible Anyone seen this issue? Plz help!

Will anyone reply to this post? HELLO DISPLAY LINK SUPPORT TEAM!! ARE YOU OUT THERE?
Here is some additional information on this issue: System Details: - Window 7 64bit Enterprise edition - Lenovo W510 - Display Link product: UGA-2k-A http://plugable.com/products/uga-2k-a/ - Nvidia Drivers: 257.38 more info attached Troubleshooting done: (after every step I had to restore to last good know configuration after pressing F8) 1. uninstall 5.5 and installed 5.6: still blue screen after OS reload 2. install 5.5 latest, did not plug in the UGA-2k-A yet, reloaded Window and the reload was successful. Connected external USB vga device and it was detected and activated, worked perfectly. Tried to reload windows again, and still got blue screen 3. booting into the safe mode works, did a full disk check on the c drive to try and recover the ntfs.sys file without success. When I reboot in safe mode I still get the blue screen when Win7 boots up Conclusion: The issue seems to be triggered when I plug the UGA-2k-A into the USB. Having the display-Link software and drivers installed without plugging the device does not cause a blue screen on system reload. If this is a support forum then can someone reply to this post and explain what additional captures do you need for this issue to be resolved or should I return this device and buy a competitor external VGA? I am attaching the blue-screen screenshot and the NVIDIO System Info Report: [Display] Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q 720 @ 1.60GHz (1596 MHz) Operating System: Windows 7 Enterprise, 64-bit DirectX version: 11.0 GPU processor: Quadro FX 880M Driver version: 257.38 CUDA Cores: 48 Core clock: 550 MHz Shader clock: 1210 MHz Memory clock: 790 MHz (1580 MHz data rate) Memory interface: 128-bit Total available graphics memory: 2781 MB Dedicated video memory: 1024 MB DDR3 System video memory: 0 MB Shared system memory: 1757 MB Video BIOS version: 70.16.5F.00.0B IRQ: 16 Bus: PCI Express x16 Gen2 [Components] nvCplUI.exe 3.3.452.15 NVIDIA Control Panel nvWSS.dll 6.14.12.5738 NVIDIA Workstation Server nvViTvS.dll 6.14.12.5738 NVIDIA Video Server NVMCTRAY.DLL 8.17.12.5738 NVIDIA Media Center Library nvDispS.dll 6.14.12.5738 NVIDIA Display Server NVCPL.DLL 8.17.12.5738 NVIDIA Compatible Windows7 Display driver, Version 257.38 NVCUDA.DLL 8.17.12.5738 NVIDIA CUDA 3.1.1 driver nvGameS.dll 6.14.12.5738 NVIDIA 3D Settings Server |

Looking at your report here, there's a real problem and so we'll definitely be following up, whether you contact us or not. But we'd appreciate an email, so we can help you in the interim. Thank you!
