yeah this adapter is out dated they dont even have software updates for it, i will get a new one its no big deal, this is what happens when you mum gets the cheap option. so if i get another one that is up to date and compatible with windows 7 should this fix it?
also the MSE is there a link to one for windows 7? one i found is vista/ xp
Very good. Did you use the uninstall tool I mentioned? I saw the Norton drivers in the last dump you uploaded.
I want to explain hardware a little more clearly. Hardware consists of your motherboard, CPU, RAM, hard drives, adapter cards (such as network, wireless, audio, video adapters), mouse, keyboard, monitor, cared reader, etc. Other things can affect your hardware, particularly RAM such as obsolete drivers, corrupted drivers, obsolete software, third party antivirus programs, third party firewalls, and defective hardware peripherals (printer, mouse, keyboard disk drives, etc).
In your case, since you tested your RAM, we are looking for other things than can adversely affect your RAM. I hope this helps you to understand.
Good find on the wireless adapter. Good job. You will want to uninstall the current adapter before you install a new adapter. Do this through Device Manager and then remove the actual adapter. Reboot and then install the new adapter.

thanks =]
i will get a new adaptor on monday and after i post this i will uninstall my adaptor and just work offline for a while. i will get a new one and see if it helps.
just to clarify you think the is most likely the cause then? once i get new one should be sorted?
honestly i have been so stressed over this and i can't believe it might be something as silly as buying an out dates wireless adaptor lol
oh i meant i unistalled norton with the tool you provided =]
I think Norton played a bigger role than the wireless adapter did. You will notice that last error code mentioned antivirus programs as a possible cause. Try running with the adapter now that you have uninstalled Norton and see what happens. I believe it will bite you sooner or later, though.
How did you do with updating the other drivers?
well it was crashing before i had norton
i havent done them yet do i do all of them listed cause you said some where norton ones
ok GEARAspiWDM.sys is itunes
not sure what NAVENG.SYS belongs too, possibly symantec so norton
NAVEX15.SYS is norton
SRTSP.SYS norton
ccHPx86.sys i don't know
SRTSPX.SYS- norton
SYMEFA.SYS norton
SYMEVENT.SY norton
SYMFW.SYS norton
SymIMv.sys norton
SYMNDISV.SYS norton
SYMTDI.SYS norton
ok so since mostr of them are norton they are gone, need to sort out the itunes one and then there is that unknown one
since my bluescreens happened before and after norton i will say that this wireless thing was a main cause especially since majority of crashes happened while on the net, is that a fair assumption?
If you uninstalled Norton, those should be gone and you are going to take care of the 2007 driver on Monday. The remaining one is a 2009 driver and it may work OK.
