WHEA-Logger flood - Event ID 17

Off topic?

if this thread isn't getting HP's attention then what is...

Customers are thinking about returning their machines for another brand name and this topic is at the very top of google search results. 

I guess I myself should have done my homework researching problems with these HP laptops before I went out and slapped down nearly a grand for something that could end up being a paperweight in less than a year. 

We don't want the errors and warnings! it is not OK... it effects the machines performance and renders wifi/bluetooth useless if you leave your machine connected to a network. 

Business laptops kind of stay connected to the network for like business reasons no?

Lenovo is USA made products... maybe thats what HP's problem is? maybe manufacturers should just put the Chinese manufacturers name on the products we buy, in cantonese lettering too lol... people would think twice about buying the product but instead we are deceived with a great time honored American Corporations namesake (like HP) branded on our Chinese products.

i agree, i should of done my homework as well, visually the pavilion gaming laptop looks great but under the hood is another story, DDR3 for RAM and GPU, when the ASUS GL552VW (has the same problem according to one user) has better internal components

agree it affects the performance, by having this error, and it needs resolving.

i think you will find that Lenovo is and Chinese firm that is listed on the hong kong stock exchange, and will more than likely make there products in china.

most electronics are made in china or the components are made there and assembled some were else.

i have never looked at that possibility of the manufactures using 5th generation system boards and 6th generation processors, but now that you have wrote that, that could be a possibility of what the issue is.

5th generation system board.

6th generation WLAN modules, CPU's and GPU's.

so the board tries to slow down the other components so it can handle them, and then the PCI Express Root Port errors then start to happen.

I do not work for HP, i am just a customer.

Well I do know Lenovo is a Chinese corporation but they are manufacturing in USA, not just assembling... a very wise move if you ask me, it's almost a checkmate!  Kind of the same as BMW does, they build the X5 SUV in Spartansburg North Carolina... What company in their right mind of maximizing profit would choose to manufacture their product paying American wages? ...wait I know, a company who cares about the quality of their product 😄

We have so many laws and rules and standards here it's not even funny anymore, things like that just don't exist in China... yet

i know you put that they made in the US lenovo, but them made there may just be for the US customers/market only, were UK lenovo could be made in China.

the US and UK have high labour costs for a varity of reasons.

Guess no solution yet?

That can override the problem at least you won't get continuous flood:

Run CMD as administrator, and type the following: bcdedit /set pciexpress forcedisable

Restart

I know that is not a real solution that's a workaround which suggested by MS.

i am waiting for my laptop to come back to me today, to test your theory.
