    PC Identifier Mismatch


    I'm trying to change my user account from my Gmail login to my new Outlook login. I read that prior to swapping over, I should take a backup of my bitlocker recovery key. When I looked at this, I noticed that the identifier for the PC is actually different to what it says under the about PC section of settings. The PC was setup by me using my Gmail login so it's not stored in anyone elses bitlocker etc. Can someone please advise? I don't want to change user or go to local account without having the correct bitlocker recovery key. Thanks for your help!

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    • There select troubleshooting.
    • In troubleshooting, go to system and security and select
      run maintenance task.

      on screen instructions.
    Step 2: I also suggest you to
    try creating a new user account and check if issue persists.

  4. PC Identifier Mismatch

    APC index mismatch

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    We understand the difficulties you are facing with the PC after Windows 10 1903 update. Usually, we see that the APC Index Mismatch is caused due to certain drivers, mostly audio drivers. I would suggest you to uninstall the Audio
    Driver from the Device Manager and then reinstall it.

    Steps to uninstall and reinstall Audio Device driver.

    1. Press Windows + X, select
      Device Manager.
    2. Expand Audio inputs and outputs option.
      Right click on the listed devices and click on Uninstall option.
    3. Check the box beside
      Delete the driver software for this device, then click OK.
    4. Restart the PC and then reinstall the driver from the computer manufacturer website.

    Meanwhile, try the resolution provided in this
    Bug Check 0x1: APC_INDEX_MISMATCH
    article and provide us the dump file for further investigation. Please reply the in-private message, that has been send to you.

    However, we can see that you have Intel media sdk dfp which is giving you an error code:
    0x80070057, when updating from the Microsoft store. We would like you to refer the resolution posted by Independent Advisor Vijay_Verma on June 6th, 2019 from this
    Error code: 0x80070057 when installing Intel Media SDK DFP in Microsoft
    Store
    post and check if that helps you to fix the issue.

    We await your response.
