    BSOD after closing iTunes error 0x0000007e


    I have a Dell Laptop Inspiron 1440
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM Full
    3 GB Memory (2 Gb and 1 Gb sticks)
    On board video
    On board sound
    Intel Dual Core Processor


    After I removed an iPod from my laptop I never had installed before I got the BSOD after I restarted the computer. The message stated "Windows failed to start a recent hardware or software change may be the cause". I have tried startup repair from the OEM disc and have had no luck after 5 or more tries. I can boot into safe mode fine and connect to the internet. It will not start normally. The two options you get are start normally or launch startup repair and both of these fail when attempting. It always shows the error code 0x0000007e but some of the code in the parathensis change each time I boot the computer. This is all I know for now. Attached is the copy of the dump file. I tried to run the perfmon /report and it fails each time I tried it (5 times I tried). Please if anyone can help Thanks in advance for your help!

    Easy enough your AVG is to blame.

    I notice your AVG which is often at least a contributing cause of BSOD'S . Please remove and replace your AVG with Microsoft Security Essentials AT LEAST TO TEST


    Download tools and utilities | AVG Worldwide

    Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows

    I can only boot into safe mode.
    In safe mode I tried to uninstall AVG and I got the following error.

    AVG Installer Application has stopped working.

    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
    Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

    No solution was available.

    Please advise further. Thanks for your help!

    Did you use the AVG un-installer tool from the link?

    OK I am new to this. No I did not use the link you provided at first, I used the add/remove programs.

    Next, I used the link you provided to remove AVG and the computer boots up normally. Seems all good.

    I have installed Microsoft Security Essentials and are updating it now

    The computer seems to be running normally again.
    If anything changes I will post back on this thread.

    I do not know how to THANK you enough. YOU ARE THE GREATEST!!!!
