Massive memory leak on the driver for the card WLAN (BCMWLTRY. (EXE)

I upgraded my laptop Dell XPS M1530 Window 7 and met a memory leak that makes my OS unusable within a few hours despite the 4 GB of RAM. I "lose" almost 1 MB of RAM every two seconds. After doing some research on Google, I discovered that the source of this huge leak is the bcmwltry.exe that is associated with the Dell Wireless WLAN Card network controller.

I use version 5.10.38.30 of this executable that came with this laptop for several months, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 x.

To illustrate the leak, open Windows Task Manager.
Click the process tab
Check the box "Show processes from all users" below.
Under the view menu, click Select columns, and then select the options of memory and Page faults.
Click OK to see the new columns, and then click Page defaults to sort processes by page faults.

For all my programs, the number of page faults is close to zero and or static, except bcmwltry.exe which has some 10 000 + faults per SECOND! There is certainly a huge memory allocation problem which is the cause of out of control. Currently there are over 14 million vulnerabilities having only generated this .exe about 15 minutes ago. Wowsers.

OEM02MON.exe associated with the on-line Dell! Webcam Control Board also seems to have a similar problem.

Want an immediate resolution. Restarting does not help, and that these problems occur in the absence of all other running applications.

Thanks in advance,
Evan

  • Massive memory leak to the Organizer 14 during the processing of faces

    Hello

    I have observed the Organizer 14 huge memory leaks during the processing of faces. My scripts:

    1. the Organizer 13 database with 35 k photos and faces named ~ 45. After the upgrade to v14, organizer began treating faces anew (preservation face name assignments v13). Now, for each photo ~ 6-8 k he consumed ~ 6GB of memory which was not returned to the system, where message memory and OS closing the Organizer. I have confirmed, that it was process organizer who was consumed by memory. I just finished finally all batch processing, and leaks memory have been persistent between the the computer reboots/restarts and restarts organizer - always at the same pace.

    2. After finishing above, I'm done with 12 batteries face k (right - 12 thousand - I have many faces). I started treatment, deciding faces unconfirmed for named faces and piles of face. After an hour or two of work, I'm done with the memory low Message for the Organizer again. What happened only once so far, but I guess because it was my first batch of work after the re-scan.

    Have you noticed something like that? I have screenshots of the Task Manager for the first scenario, and I think that I can easily do some for the second.

    I would like to report somewhere as well?

    TIA & looks

    Thank you very much... which seems to do the job for letting me use the network card.  Once I installed the chipset you me too, my IE was able to get the net.  The only thing that happened that I wonder about, what I choose to accept or not something RAID, which I accepted and it seems to work with one small annoying side affect: I can't get Windows Update to run.  I get this error: 0x8024400a and I spent literally hours looking for and trying different solutions, which none have worked.

  • No sound after reinstalling the CD driver for sound card

    It all started when we do receive some music before of Powerpoint. We tried to update the driver for the card of its Soundblaster Audigy by shape to reinstall the CD we have obtained with the computer. It is reinstalled, but now we have NO noise at all. I tried to restore to an earlier time, but this has not fixed the problem. Check all the cables. To remove and reinstall sound card. Deleted SP3 and reinstalled because someone said that it would fix the corrupted files.   When we run difficulty It Now of microsoft, he says that everything is working properly.  Device Manager, I removed everything that I could see that had to do with the sound and reinstalled. Help, please. It's so frustrating not to make any noise.

    It does not say that the audio now works in Device Manager? If you double-click the audio inputs none of them see one! or X? If you want, I could check here with teamviewer. You will see what Im doing. If you decide to get this facility then run it. Give me the ID and the password, it gives you.

    Is its edge card, if it's not (and there is a soundboard on board, it is disabled)?

  • Can't find the right driver for my card wireless HP dv6-635dx

    I have a HP dv6-635dx. I have a slight problem with the pilot/conection wifi for my laptop. The current driver I have is the 1005.24.712.2011 for the Realtek RTL8188CE version. Until about 2 weeks ago, I got no problem with it.

    1. all of a sudden the internet connection is still not connected. Every 15 minutes about or then it loses the internet connection. Does not with any other device wired or wireless. Tablet, phones and other phones work perfectly. Ethernet connection works perfectly. Just this laptop with the problem.

    2. before what is happening when I would open a sleep, the wireless connection to the router connects automatically. Now, all of a sudden it doesn't work. I have to manually connect. When I manually connect it first it takes forever, gives me the message "connection to the device takes longer than usual," said then could not connect. Then a few seconds later all of a sudden it is connected.

    This prompted me to check the drivers and settings of the wireless connection. When I went into advanced settings, I found that it always was checked as 'connect automatically to the network', and none of the incorrect settings in LAN not avancΘs in 'Internet Options '. So there is nothing wrong. These problems don't make sense to me.

    Then, I checked the driver to make sure there is no problem and that it was up to date. Everything is fine in Device Manager, no errors and pilot is uodated and functioning properly. I checked, but on HP driver downloads Web site and concluded that pilots what they have listed for my model are not the same brand or the driver I have on the laptop. They have 2 Ralink drivers listed as good for my model of HP.

    So I'm a bit puzzled by this driver which is correct; the Reaktek who was on the laptop when I bought it, or the Ralink HP was listed on their Web site of downloads for this model? Overall I'm pretty disappointed with this laptop. There are problems with the screen that I returned the premiera for when I bought initially. It also has a glimmer of hope in the lower left corner you can see clearly during initialization and loading Windows. There is also a dead pixel at the bottom right of the screen. Sometimes the kind of screen flashes and sometimes I get a line flash in the upper part. I changed a few settings power to stop this, but I wouldn't have to change the settings, I need just to be sure, it isn't wasting. I also discovered that this model was abandoned shortly after its release. I don't know what I can do to repair or replace for a different model. It's still under warranty for a further period of 10 months.

    Hello:

    The card you have installed in your laptop, this is what is listed in the Device Manager. Sometimes, the HP does not list drivers for all the different wireless cards that can come in a variety of specific models.

    Recently, I heard a lot of complaints about the card Realtek 8188.

    It's the latest HP driver for it.

    My understanding is you can solve your problems by going to advanced settings and replace wireless B/G/n, B/G mode and that supposedly stops the madness.

    Of course now you only have a transmission speed of G, but at least you'll have stability until a new driver is released which hopefully solves the problem.

    I think I've read at least 10 cases of this problem here.

    To access the advanced settings of your card, go to Device Manager, click on the wireless adapter and then click on the Advanced tab.

  • If the kernel sees the network adapter (checked with lspci - v | less) that I still need to provide a driver for that card visible to ESXi?

    I have an old Quad NIC card which is considered by the kernel. (lspci - v | less ) but I can't see with esxcfg-NICS-l

    How can I set up is available to ESXi?

    The card is

    Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 (rev 41)

    Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company 10/100Base-TX (PCI) [A5506B]

    Thank you

    PF

    Yes, the LSPCI command is just an output of what devices are connected on the slot PCI on the hardware running ESXi.

    the esxcfg-NICS - l command would be listed only those network port what host can use to send traffic (which was only after installation of the driver)

    The names of card does not seem to listed on vmware HCL VMware Compatibility Guide: search system

    Would say to confirm that this map is a counterpart device and install the driver for the device so that esxi can be used for network traffic.

  • Driver for SD cards with 4 GB Satellite A200 - 29L

    Hi all

    I have a satellite A200 - 29 L and I have already installed the Flash Media Driver 2.0.0.6 and it works with SD up to 2 GB cards.
    When I try it with a 4 GB SDHC - Card, it does not work.
    Can someone tell me what to do, thank you in advance.

    Seppele

    Hello

    As far as I know the card reader supports these cards:
    8MB - 2 GB SD card
    4 GB SDHC card
    16MB - 2 GB xD Picture card
    Memory Stick 8 to 256 MB
    Memory Stick Pro 256 MB to 2 GB
    MultiMediaCard 8 MB - 1 GB
    miniSD (with SD adapter) 32 MB - 2 GB

    As you can see the card reader to support the SDHC cards up to 4 GB.

    You should try using another SDHC card. Maybe there's something wrong with the card.
    Otherwise see this MS knowledge base article:

    + Fix for Windows XP that adds support for a capacity of more than 4 GB SDHC cards +.

    Unfortunately, I think you can use the Vista driver and normally they also work on Windows 7.
    Perhaps you can explain what it means not managed exactly

    In addition, you can try a new driver of another model of laptop card reader, e. g. Satellite A300.
