Laptop displays PCI controller error, it cannot boot at all

GoblinDino · ‎01-16-2019

My laptop (Elite book 8440p) only shows the error message

"PCI controller error" 10 times. I cannot boot it or enter anything but BIOS. All anayltics and tests in the BIOS claim that all is well.

I read on other threads to update PCI drivers, but I cannot boot at all.

I would appreciate any help

thanks

A poster with the same model discovered a bad memory stick caused his:

Another unplugged a usb hub:

Thanks for your message,

my Computer is not connected to either device at the moment, but the problem still persists 😞

Hi! another update. I found a post, where the RAM extension caused the problem. I removed the RAM and it still displays the same error message.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks

Daniel
