You could be able to block device driver installation for "Intel(R) 300 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller" (iastorac.sys), Hardware ID--> "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A353&SUBSYS_380817AA&REV_10" with the following command (launched in an elevated command prompt):

reg add "hklm\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions\DenyDeviceIDs" /v "PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A353&SUBSYS_380817AA&REV_10" /t reg_sz /f

---

If that shouldn't work, the following operations should block ALL devices drivers installations for your PC.
Valid for Windows 10 Version 10.0.19042.685 (Version 20H2 Build 19042.685), i.e. most recent version.

• Go to Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers
• Right-click your PC
• Click Device installation settings
• It will appear a window saying:
  "Do you want to automatically download manufacturers' apps and custom icons that are available for your device?"
  Radio/option buttons:
  - "Yes (recommended)"
  - "No (your device might not work as expected)"
  Buttons:
  "Save changes"
  "Cancel"
• Select no and click Save changes.

I'm afraid that I'm still getting the cracks, Is there anything I can do to improve it ?

 

[shahinyp]

when I changed the driver from Intel to standard SATA, It was ok for a while but the cracks sound came back again.

 

[shahinyp]

The cracks are loud now like before, even with audio enhancement off.

Let's verify the values with this batch (click to download).
Right-click on it, run as administrator, you should find result.txt on your desktop, copy its content here.

 

[shahinyp]

here is the result, I tried both 1 and 0 value for this. (If this is the same value as before which we changed in the earlier post)

Re-launch the command and reboot:

reg add "hklm\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A353&SUBSYS_380817AA&REV_10\3&11583659&0&B8\Device Parameters\Interrupt Management\MessageSignaledInterruptProperties" /v MSISupported /t reg_dword /d 0 /f

 

[shahinyp]

didn't work, It got even worse. This is the result now

Download the attached file, unzip its folder on the desktop, launch the following command, zip devices.html you'll find on your desktop, and send it here:

"%userprofile%\Desktop\devmanview x64 1.72 portable\devmanview.exe" /shtml "%userprofile%\desktop\devices.html"

[shahinyp]

For the trace file, it says the file is too large. (even with 'rar' format)

 

[xilolee]

Re-read fourth point and you'll find how to do.

 

[shahinyp]

trace.rar
Is it ok?

 

[shahinyp]

I didn't do the things on the fifth point, should I do them?
