What are ahcix86s.sys Error Messages?

ahcix86s.sys Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Errors

There are a number of reasons why you could be encountering issues with ahcix86s.sys. Most of the issues concerning sys files involve Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors. These types of ahcix86s.sys errors can be cause by hardware problems, outdated firmware, corrupt drivers, or other software-related (eg. EaseUS Disk Copy update) issues. Some of these errors include:

ahcix86s.sys could not be found.
ahcix86s.sys failed to load.
The file ahcix86s.sys is missing or corrupt.
Windows failed to start - ahcix86s.sys.

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. The problem seems to be caused by the following file: ahcix86s.sys.

:( Your PC ran into a problem that it couldn't handle, and now needs to restart. You can search for the error online: [BSOD] (ahcix86s.sys).

STOP 0×0000007A: KERNEL DATA INPAGE (ahcix86s.sys) STOP 0x0000007E: SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED (ahcix86s.sys) STOP 0x0000001E: KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED (ahcix86s.sys) STOP 0x0000000A: IRQL NOT LESS EQUAL (ahcix86s.sys) STOP 0x0000003B: SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION (ahcix86s.sys) STOP 0x00000050: PAGE FAULT IN A NONPAGED AREA (ahcix86s.sys)

It's Critical to Resolve Blue Screen of Death Errors

In the majority of cases, you will encounter ahcix86s.sys BSOD errors after you've installed new hardware, software (EaseUS Disk Copy), or performed a failed Windows Update. In other cases, software corruption caused by a malware infection can lead to ahcix86s.sys Blue Screen of Death errors. Therefore, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

GEEK TIP : As a rule of thumb, it's always a good idea to create a Windows "Snapshot" backup / System Restore Point before making any hardware or software changes to your computer. That way, it's very easy to restore your system in the unfortunate event you encounter a ahcix86s.sys Blue Screen of Death error after recent changes.

How to Fix ahcix86s.sys Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your ahcix86s.sys issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.

Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

In the search results, find and click System Restore.
Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the ahcix86s.sys error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed EaseUS Disk Copy (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling EaseUS Disk Copy software.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many ahcix86s.sys error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

Hit the Windows Start button
In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)

If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your ahcix86s.sys File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate ahcix86s.sys file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free ahcix86s.sys files for every applicable version of EaseUS Disk Copy.

Windows 10: C:\Program Files (x86)\EaseUS\Todo Backup\BUILDPE\x86\Drivers\RAID\AMD\

Download ahcix86s.sys Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying ahcix86s.sys to your appropriate Windows system directory. EaseUS typically does not release EaseUS Disk Copy SYS files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer.
