Memory leak after chipset and BIOS upgrade

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all, 

I upgraded my chipset to the v6.02.22.053 package, Mostly for the PSP Driver since I had an error in my Device Manager. I also took the opportunity to upgrade from BIOS 1.24.AS02 to the latest (at the time) 2.10. 

Since then, about once a day I'll sit down at my computer and it will be very unresponsive. Task Manager shows 99% RAM utilization. Going through Task Manager, Resource Monitor, Process Explorer, and a few other tools, the usage is not reflected in running processes. 

Google-fu told me it was most likely a driver issue, which made sense since I had just updated. Using poolmon, I see the tag `Acrl` with the source tcpip.sys has a lot of allocs and 0 frees, which I understand to mean that's likely my culprit. 

I'm unsure what my next steps should be. Any help would be appreciated.
