Windows 7: BSOD Right after I start my computer normally, error 0x000000f4

Verya · 23 Oct 2012

Kind of new to forums and computers, so excuse my mistakes and ignorance.

I was playing League of Legends one day, then it just got a BOSD out of now where. As said in the title, it was error 0x000000f4. I restarted the computer in safe mode, and tried to run a system restore. It then blue screens DURING the restore. After attempting different things I have seen online, I've gotten errors from BAD_POOL_ERROR to IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I'm at a dead end of what to do.

Since I'm not great with computers, there is most likely information missing from this post, so if you need to know anything more, just ask.

Welcome

Please upload full reports.

Do you have an SSD?

Verya · 24 Oct 2012

Full reports? I thought the compressed file was the full report.
And no, it doesn't use a SSD.

Please upload your msinfo32.nfo file. To get this:

(1) Click on the Start
(2) Type msinfo32 into the Search programs and files box
(3) When it opens, go to File, Save
(4) Save as msinfo32.nfo and save in a place you will remember
(5) Let it finish the process of gathering and saving the system info
(6) Right click the .nfo file, click send to compressed (zipped) folder
(7) Upload the .zip file here

You need to update to the latest drivers for "Change Monitor Filter Driver" but I would suggest uninstalling it if you don't use it, it has a reputation on creating BSODs.

Are you having McAfee installed? Please uninstall it. It's known to cause BSODs!

McAfee Removal Tool - McAfee Uninstaller

Recommended antivirus program for Windows 7 based on stability compared to others:-

Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.

Run the System File Checker that scans the of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible:

SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

Run Disk Check on your hard disk for file system errors and bad sectors on it:

Disk Check

Await the msinfo file for listing out more problematic software

I looked through my drivers and could not find the "Change Monitor Filter Driver." Could you point me in the direction on how/where to update it. I have no idea if I use it though.

I also tried to install MSE, but it said I couldn't install it in safe mode. Should I uninstall McAfee before I try to install MSE?

Very sorry, I'm new/not so good with computers.

**koolkat77** · 24 Oct 2012

Yes you should uninstall McAfee before trying to install MSE. But why in safe mode? Can't you do that in normal mode?

Verya · 25 Oct 2012

No, everytime I run it in normal mode it blue screens shortly after I log into my user and it loads everything.

**koolkat77** · 25 Oct 2012

OK, since you're in safe mode now follow these steps:

Click Start
Type in msconfig in the Search bar
Go to the Start up tab and disable Mcafee from there

Now try booting in normal mode and see if you're getting a BSOD

Verya · 25 Oct 2012

Will do once I get to my computer. What about that driver that you told me to update / uninstall? Where is it located, and how can I tell if I use it?
