ALCXSENS.SYS

Hi,

I keep getting the blue screen of death and this is the name that keeps
showing up:
ALCXSENS.SYS


There are numerous hits on Google but none tells where to find a replacement
driver. At least I think it's a driver. No further mention of how to
correct the problem.

Can anyone help? Thank you in advance.

This is for your soundcard. Get drivers from:

1. The card mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if onboard video; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the
drivers. Do not install drivers from Windows Update.

If you have a locally built computer or it was built by "someone" and
you don't know what hardware you've got, use a system inventory program
like Belarc Advisor or Everest Home (both free) to determine exactly
what your sound device is.

Hi Malke,

Thank you so much for your *very* helpful response. My PC was specially
built and so the Belarc inventory was invaluable in finding my sound card
manufacturer. If you had not included that I would not have known the
manufacturer.

I downloaded the driver last night and it seems to have corrected a few
mysterious happenings on my PC.
1. The blue screen of death didn't happen at shutdown
2. Upon reboot my active desktop doesn't get deactivated
3. Sounds all seem to be louder now-they had all gotten very soft

Possibly other things I have not yet noticed.

Thank you so very much.
