CHIPSET_LIVEDUMP

What is 0x000001D1?

CHIPSET_LIVEDUMP (0x000001D1) is a medium-severity fault affecting the system driver. The motherboard chipset controller livedump indicates a communication delay or hardware freeze in the Intel/AMD platform controller hub (PCH) drivers. Commonly caused by outdated chipset firmware, aggressive power saving settings, or VRM voltage sags. Follow the steps below to fix it.

Common Causes

• Outdated Intel/AMD motherboard chipset drivers
• Aggressive PCIe Active State Power Management (ASPM)
• Motherboard chipset power controller timeouts
• Corrupted motherboard BIOS NVRAM settings

Step-by-Step Fix Guide

• 1
  Update motherboard chipset and inf drivers

  In our testing, Update motherboard chipset and inf drivers alone clears up 0x000001D1 more often than any other single step.

• 2
  Disable PCIe ASPM link power saving in control panel

  Should symptoms return, move on to the next steps — they're written specifically for harder-to-catch chipset controllers instability causes.

• 3
  Perform a BIOS update and clear CMOS

  "Perform a BIOS update and clear CMOS" targets corrupted motherboard BIOS NVRAM settings, one of the documented causes of 0x000001D1.

• 4
  Reinstall motherboard serial I/O drivers

  If earlier steps didn't help, "Reinstall motherboard serial I/O drivers" directly addresses outdated Intel/AMD motherboard chipset drivers.
