Windows 10: The Dell XPS 9730 laptop now shows that it is running the 0.1.5.0 firmware but the message...

This update message will not go away. Even though the Dell XPS 9730 laptop was manually updated by a Dell technician 5 days ago by using an executable from Dell during the BIOS bootup.

speed of processor 1 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware !?

I am seeing several messages in the event log shortly after I boot (the adapter message appears earlier than the processor messages):

• A command sent to the adapter has timed out. The adapter did not respond.
• The speed of processor 0 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware.
  The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report.
• The speed of processor 1 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware.
  The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report.
• The speed of processor 2 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware.
  The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report.
• The speed of processor 3 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware.
  The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report.

What could be causing this? My firmware is up-to-date.

 

Moving to RAID 0 - INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE


I am converting an existing Windows 10 Pro laptop to RAID 0 - and I keep getting to the final boot where it says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. What am I doing wrong? The laptop has two 1 TB Samsung 850 SSDs that are identical. Laptop is a HP Zbook 17.

Here are my steps:

1. Made a good System Image of C: drive on separate external SSD drive connected by USB. D: drive didn't have anything on it to be saved.
2. Used Win 10 Pro DVD to delete all partitions/format drives.
3. Went into BIOS and changed from AHCI to RAID, and also to turn on ability to do Control-I to get to Intel RST ROM.
4. Rebooted, did Control-I, created a RAID 0 of the two disks.
5. Rebooted, installed Windows 10 fresh. Verified it would reboot on its own.
6. Rebooted, went into Repair on Windows 10 DVD. Selected external SSD image to do image restore from.
7. Rebooted - verified on Control-I that the RAID 0 array is listed as "bootable"
8. Rebooted - get INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.

The place it dies - I see the little Windows 10 blue window, and the spinning circle at the bottom - then I get the blue screen with the message.

I think I listed everything I did - what am I missing?

 

"The speed of processor x in group 0 is being limited by system firmware" Event ID 37

This is an error that came up when working on a clients laptop. This Laptop was randomly getting BSOD. No rhyme or reason to the error would happen at anytime. I believe I have already figured out the issue, but would like additional input if anyone has
come across this before.

The other error that I was getting was "The speed of processor x in group 0 is being limited by system firmware" Event ID 37"

Make: Dell

Model Latitude E7470.

OS: Windows 10 Pro.

Below are the steps that I believed to have solved the issue.

-Looking over system logs.

Errors

"The speed of processor x in group 0 is being limited by system firmware" Event ID 37

-Updating drivers and firmware from Dell website.

-Running Dell Diagnostics.

nothing found by Dell Diagnostics.

Error

"The speed of processor x in group 0 is being limited by system firmware" Event ID 37

Uninstalled USB controllers.

FIX: The Driver WudfRd failed to load for the Device with Event ID 219

-Found a Bluetooth device that was not fully installed or it might have been showing an error because it was not detected "I believe they were to be headphones but could not confirm." I disconnected the connection to the head phones
