Answer» Hello everyone! I have tried searching for answers to this question but nothing has worked. My specs OS Windows 7 64-bit Video card GeForce GTX 660 Processor AMD A10 5800K processor Ram 8GB Motherboard ASUS F2 A85-M PRO Power supply Raidmax RX-730SS The issue: My computer will freeze. All applications stop working simultaneously, and ctrl-alt-del does nothing. Mouse does not move. Keyboard does nothing. All devices (like my music player and phone) act as though they were unplugged.Waiting for the computer to recover does nothing, I have to do a hard reset by HOLDING the power button or flicking the switch on the power supply. I cannot SEEM to replicate the freezes but they occur about twice a day. In the Event Log, I see many of the same error: Event ID 11, atapi, “The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort2.” I also see Event ID 10110 (sometimes 10111), DriverFrameworks-UserMode “A problem has occured with one or more user-mode drivers and the hosting process has been terminated. This may temporarily interrupt your ability to access the device.” The atapi error will occur in huge batches, like 5-10 entries at once. The Frameworks error occurs only once. Both occur right before the crash. What I have found I did a google search and found this atapi points to a hard drive or CD-drive error, and not sure if it relates but I was having many hard drive errors before (two complete drive failures and two drives that just did not work) and I had to replace my motherboard. Link for that is here. I am still able to access and use my drives. I ran a hard drive diagnostic and all hard drives (I have 2 internals and one external) came up good. I can still read/write CDs fine. I tried to find which drive as Port2, but in Device manager it says ATA Channel 0-7, but ATA Channel 2, in the drive properties, says Drive 0. I saw on google to select “Use PIO Only” in driver properties, but I do not have that selection. The only checkbox in Driver Properties is “Enable DMA.” I have tried unchecking this box, but the hangs still occur. I changed SATA cords for my HDs and CD drive but the error persists. As for the frameworks error, I seem to see it has to do with sleep/hibernation, both of which I have had disabled for quite some time. I double checked the settings, and Sleep and Hibernation are both still disabled. It may also relate to antivirus errors (as seen here) and what I run is Avira!. I installed and ran MalwareBytes when these errors occurred, in Safe Mode, but I had no viruses/malware. The sites I have seen are this which tells about the atapi error and here and here which tells about the frameworks error. tl;dr version Computer crashes with atapi and driverframeworks error. Atapi points to a drive, but I cannot isolate which drive or why. Driverframeworks points to hibernation or sleep modes, both were disabled before this error even started, and both are still disabled now.

Hello everyone!

I have tried searching for answers to this question but nothing has worked.
My specs
OS Windows 7 64-bit
Video card GeForce GTX 660
Processor AMD A10 5800K processor
Ram 8GB
Motherboard ASUS F2 A85-M PRO
Power supply Raidmax RX-730SS

The issue:
My computer will freeze. All applications stop working simultaneously, and ctrl-alt-del does nothing. Mouse does not move. Keyboard does nothing. All devices (like my music player and phone) act as though they were unplugged.Waiting for the computer to recover does nothing, I have to do a hard reset by HOLDING the power button or flicking the switch on the power supply.
I cannot SEEM to replicate the freezes but they occur about twice a day.

In the Event Log, I see many of the same error: Event ID 11, atapi, “The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Ide\IdePort2.”
I also see Event ID 10110 (sometimes 10111), DriverFrameworks-UserMode “A problem has occured with one or more user-mode drivers and the hosting process has been terminated. This may temporarily interrupt your ability to access the device.” The atapi error will occur in huge batches, like 5-10 entries at once. The Frameworks error occurs only once. Both occur right before the crash.

What I have found
I did a google search and found this atapi points to a hard drive or CD-drive error, and not sure if it relates but I was having many hard drive errors before (two complete drive failures and two drives that just did not work) and I had to replace my motherboard. Link for that is here.

I am still able to access and use my drives. I ran a hard drive diagnostic and all hard drives (I have 2 internals and one external) came up good.
I can still read/write CDs fine.

I tried to find which drive as Port2, but in Device manager it says ATA Channel 0-7, but ATA Channel 2, in the drive properties, says Drive 0.

I saw on google to select “Use PIO Only” in driver properties, but I do not have that selection. The only checkbox in Driver Properties is “Enable DMA.” I have tried unchecking this box, but the hangs still occur.

I changed SATA cords for my HDs and CD drive but the error persists.

As for the frameworks error, I seem to see it has to do with sleep/hibernation, both of which I have had disabled for quite some time. I double checked the settings, and Sleep and Hibernation are both still disabled. It may also relate to antivirus errors (as seen here) and what I run is Avira!. I installed and ran MalwareBytes when these errors occurred, in Safe Mode, but I had no viruses/malware.

The sites I have seen are this which tells about the atapi error and here and here which tells about the frameworks error.

tl;dr version
Computer crashes with atapi and driverframeworks error.
Atapi points to a drive, but I cannot isolate which drive or why.
Driverframeworks points to hibernation or sleep modes, both were disabled before this error even started, and both are still disabled now. May also relate to AV, which I use Avast! and ran Malwarebytes when this started, no viruses/malware.
Changed sata cords to fix atapi error, did not work.
Checked to make sure sleep and hibernation are disabled, and they are.

This is a real pain.Wow its really good to hear the pains of other who have had this build. mine is

so what happened? did yall send it back?
