Windows 7: BSOD after desktop loads - 0x8e

Too803 · 17 Nov 2012

Windows 7 Home Premium
1-2 minutes after the desktop loads, the computer BSOD's out to 0x8e BS. Some say it's a memory issue, while the computer was working fine 2-3 hours straight before I restarted it.

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: Runs perfect in safe mode.

Anyway, can you tell me what antivirus are you using?
Post system specs as well.

I was using AVG 2013 Paid, I uninstalled it for a system restore attempt, put I've put AVG 2013 Free back on until this is resolved and I can enter my product key.

**koolkat77** · 17 Nov 2012

Did you restart the desktop/laptop after uninstalling the antivirus? Was there any BSOD then? and how does the computer act in safe mode?

Perform a clean boot following this tutorial:

Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

Too803 · 17 Nov 2012

I did try starting it up after the uninstall. I'm on safemode with networking right now, for 2 hours now, So safemode works pretty good.

**koolkat77** · 17 Nov 2012

Alright. So it means we're dealing with software problems.

Edit: Well yup, it is actually contributing in the crashes:

Code:

b59b7464  8d9f4100Unable to load image \??\C:\windows\system32\drivers\avgtpx86.sys, Win32 error 0n2
*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for avgtpx86.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for avgtpx86.sys
 avgtpx86+0x1100

Recommendations:

AVG can contribute in BSOD-s, so I'd suggest you to uninstall it for troubleshooting purpose.

AVG | Download tools and utilities

Use Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes free instead.

Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows

Make a full scan with them (Separately)

Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware removes malware including viruses, spyware, worms and trojans, plus it protects your computer

Now update the following driver:

Code:

2: kd> lmvm hpdskflt
start    end        module name
88fe5000 88fee000   hpdskflt T (no symbols)
