I am inclined to believe it is related to hardware added in to the wrong slot and your computer is throwing this error> initializing pci express bridge to pcix. If you have added a card to the wrong slot>these are slots on the motherboard, there is also x64 bit. I just grabbed this for illustration purposes.

When I try to communicate with the chassis 1033 using its PXIe card my computer does not recognize it (the PCdisplays the following message during the booting step: "Alert! Error Initializing PCI express Slot 4). It worked just fine before, but the chassis was disconected with the PC turned on. I've read that this may cause communication crashes, http://forums.ni.com/t5/PXI/Alert-Error-Initializing-PCI-express-slot-4-for-a-PCIe-used-in/td-p/888547 but I did not find a good source to solve this problem.

However, is it possible that the PCIe can be damaged just by turning of the PXI chassis with the PC turned on? It does not sound reasonable to me, and I hope is just a software problem. 0 Kudos Message 2 of 4 (7,105 Views) Reply 0 Kudos Solution Accepted by topic author Victor- 08-27-2015 06:09 PM Re: Alert!

Quote #1 Postby belfento » Mon Apr 14, 2008 10:40 am "Strike the F1 key to continue, F2 to run the setup utility" I don't know what it means. Windows runs normally after I hit F1, and there don't seem to be any problems. Aside from having to hit F1 every time I start the computer, it works just fine. I just want to error initializing make sure it's nothing serious.

You might clear the BIOS event log under F2, see if it goes away, see if it comes back. I'd say reseat the video card, but if it works properly it's probably seated properly. error initializing pci The BIOS errors I'm familiar with are self resetting, that one may not be. If it actually is something going wrong, there is nothing you can do to keep it from getting worse. If it reaches a point where it no longer works, either the video card or motherboard will need replacing. There is one other thing to try, the BIOS reset. There is a fingertip size jumper on the MB, near the battery. Unplug, move the jumper from the pins it is on to the other set for 10 sec, then put it back where it was. You'll have to F2 and reenter your configuration data, and reset the clock in Windows. Rocke T Sinetist as in, 'it doesn't take a...'

The NIC would have to be cycled through power states by turning it off then onn from BIOS after reboots and stuff. I suspect that this error will likely have the same manner of conclusion. Cycling it through BIOS settings. Clearing the logs and NVR

Sep 13, 2011 #1 lievenv n00bie Messages: 2 Joined: Aug 25, 2007 Hi All, I have an old dell dimension 8400 (P4 - 3.4GHz; bios version A09) with a PCI Express ATI Radeon X800 card. The MB has 1 x1 pcie slot and 1 x16 slot. I wanted to add an ASUS pci express x4 SATA/USB3.0 card to be able to use the machine as a home storage server (win 7 Pro installed). So I got an older VGA PCI card, which works fine after I change the video setting in the bios from PEG to PCI. When I plug in the sata card in the pci-e slot however, I get an "error initializing pci express peg slot" at boot. The machine boots fine if I press F1, but the windows doesn't see the asus card at all (even without installing the sata drivers, the card shows up in win7, when I plug it in my Dimension 670). Any thoughts? Thanks!

It does not support non-graphics devices at all. The Dimension 8400 uses the very first of the PCI-e Intel chipsets, the Intel 925X, which is compliant with only the very first version of the PCI-e standard (which as conceived its designers did not think that any non-graphics device could use more than x1 bandwidth).
