Memory Integrity

[keen jasper]

So I was playing valorant fine last night and this morning i tried logging on and i got a error message that kept saying i needed to enable HVCI. On the instruction page to enable HVCI it says to enable memory integrity. Every time I try to enable it, it tells me I have incompatible drivers, when I click "review incompatible drivers" nothing shows and I already checked optional updates and updated drivers there. Any ideas?

[steel junco]

any drivers you recently installed?

[keen jasper]

in the last 8 hours? no

in the last year also no

:P

[steel junco]

hmm

can you show a screenshot of msinfo32?

[steel junco]

hmm maybe there is an option in BIOS to enable it

[keen jasper]

yeah but i cant even get to bios

it says to get to bios i have to spam f2 or f12 when the dell logo is opening

and that js doesnt work 4 me.

[steel junco]

right click choose Terminal (Admin) and then enter shutdown /r /fw /t 00 it will go to the BIOS

[keen jasper]

which 1?

[steel junco]

powershell (admin)

[keen jasper]

okay well

i already had the intel virtualization technology on

does this have anything to do with it ? @steel junco

[steel junco]

no it's Kernel DMA Protection what you are looking for

[keen jasper]

should i turn that on

[steel junco]

yeah that's what memory integrity is mostly

[keen jasper]

oh

wait

nvm im stupid

i just dont know why it shows no incompatible drivers

@steel junco do you know anything about registry editor

[steel junco]

yes, but that won't really help here

so did you see any option in bios about kernel dma protection?

I'll look into if there is another way to see those drivers

[keen jasper]

Every time i search it up it tells me to enable intel virtualization

Alrdy have that on

This VT thing

And alrdy had that

And then secure boot which was alrdy enabled

@steel junco am i suppoosed to have a file in Scenarios called hypervisorenforcedintegrity

[steel junco]

yup, but it might be that you are not able to boot if you set that with an incompatible driver

[keen jasper]

so i dont have that file

how do i get that

[steel junco]

the switch in windows security will set that automatically

[keen jasper]

oh

ok so that tutorial is useless

i keep seeing stuff about an HLK to test for driver incompatibility?

[steel junco]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns can you run this and look at the drivers tab?

[keen jasper]

just run the 2nd one?

autoruns.exe?

[steel junco]

yup

[steel junco]

might just be those unverified bluetooth drivers, wonder why they are tho

[keen jasper]

what about that adobe type manager

[steel junco]

not loaded but you can also delete it, I think it got removed recently

[keen jasper]

how do i delete it

js right click it and press delete or

:P

😭

[steel junco]

yup

[keen jasper]

and how do i verify those bluetooth drivers

[steel junco]

I would try reinstalling them

[keen jasper]

ok i know im being a pain

but

erm

how do u reinstall them

[steel junco]

go to device manager

right click

[keen jasper]

yeh

im here

[steel junco]

can you show?

[steel junco]

are there some devices when you scroll down?

[keen jasper]

like these or?

[steel junco]

hmm no

can you click on "view" and show hidden devices?

[steel junco]

hum, I'm still missing those drivers you see there in autoruns, maybe just delete them

and then install bluetooth drivers again from dell website

[keen jasper]

i honestly dont see them on the dell website

atleast for my computer

[steel junco]

the intel one

[keen jasper]

first or second one

[steel junco]

the one that says bluetooth

[keen jasper]

oh

woops

;P

so delete all 3

and only install that one?

[steel junco]

yup

[keen jasper]

i deleted those 3

installed that one

now what i do

[steel junco]

restart pc and check again

[steel junco]

did it work now?

[keen jasper]

nope sadly not

[steel junco]

still no drivers listed?

[keen jasper]

nooope

should i run the autorun thing agian

[steel junco]

yeah

[keen jasper]

and every single time i delete it off the autorun

it js shows up again

[steel junco]

hmm the driver is not actually there though

let's try making a restore point and then setting the registry key

[keen jasper]

ok how i do that
