Windows 7: BSOD on DELL OPTIPLEX 755

ar5384 · 30 Aug 2011

I have DELL OPTILPLEX 755 with 2.5 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce 7100 GS. It constantly restarts with BSOD

x64 (64-bit)
- the original installed OS on the system? - Windows 7 Ultimate
- an OEM or full retail version? - Full retail
- What is the age of system (hardware)? - bought it a month ago but it's released in markets much before that date
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) - 2 weeks

Note that I tried removing one of my RAMs to diagnose so the dump files may contain different info based on the existing HW installed at that time

Easy related to your Kaspersky. I would remove and replace with Microsoft Security essentials

I already did this suspecting it's AV problem and here you come to confirm it.
It's stable now for about an hour. Hopefully this nightmare is over.

Thanks zigzag3143 for such a quick response.

One last question, is MSE a trusted AV compared to Kaspersky?

From a BSOD perspective it is much better. In terms of an all around AV I would say they are about even.

I dont use either of them.
