Win7 64bit on AMD tablet: Unable to create ramdisk bigger than 2GB 08 September 2013, 18:38 |
Hi there.
Win7 Home 64 bit SP1 with latest hotfixes here.
Computer is MSI Windpad 110W tablet with AMD Fusion APU (z01) @ 1Ghz updated to 8GB RAM.
screenshot: image
Problem: I'm unable to create a RAMdisk bigger than 2.0GB on this 8GB system which currently shows 5.6GB free.
The error I get is: "Operation failed with status code = C0000009A and status code = 00009"
yet below it says "0 the operation completed succesfully" But the drive is obviously NOT mounted.
If I set the drive size to 2.1GB it fails. If I set it to 2.0GB, it works. Removable or not removable, raw or not raw doesn't make a difference.

What to do?

It looks like all the kernel memory is fragmented or something like that.
Could you please download the Process Explorer, in its menu choose View - System Information and switch to the Memory tab?
Post a screen shot from your system (similar to one below) here.

I have similar problem. I have Win7 Ult 64bit on i7 with 32GB of ram and last year I was able to create 8GB ramdisk without a problem until at some point it started to fail and atm can't create a disk bigger than 2.4-2.8GB. If I create such a big disk to the edge, then very soon video or sound or some other driver crashes, since it can't allocate any more of some specific ram and fails with Insufficient Resources. I guess some pool is full, but how do I find which one or what causes fragmentation?
