uTorrent and BSOD Hey guys, I was wondering, has anyone else had a problem with uTorrent giving them a BSOD after about 2 minutes? It'll be running fine then all of a sudden *BAM* dead, and it references AVGWFPX.SYS every time. I tried doing a system restore and running as administrator, but nothing works. I've even tried using different clients and it still crashes, uTorrent, bitcomet, the original Bittorrent. Any help would be wonderful, thanks. | My System Specs |

Add utorrent to AVG's exception not to scan and see if you still get the BSOD. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Compaq Presario/SR5113WM OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64/ Windows Vista Ultimate x64 CPU AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ 1.9Ghz Motherboard Asus M2N68-LA Memory PNY Optima Memory DDR2 2GB 2x1 kit Graphics Card PNY Nvidia 8400 GS 256MB Sound Card On board RealTek Monitor(s) Displays Acer X163W LCD Screen Resolution 1366x768 Keyboard Standard 102 key with volume and sleep buttons Mouse Wireless Logitech LX7 PSU Dynex 400w Case Nothin Special Cooling Stock Hard Drives Western Digital 160 GB SATA 3G (3.0Gb/sec)

Hi,
I'm using uTorrent since the first day I installed Win 7, never had a BSOD so far.
Not sure, but maybe it could be a compatibility issue on your system. Are you running other, recently installed programs (except AVG) when it crashes? Or did you install any other software / drivers, shortly before it crashed for the first time? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer Aspire 1692 OS XP pro, Win7 Ultimate x86 CPU Pentium M 1.73GHz Memory 2GB Samsung DDR2 667 Graphics Card ATI Mobility Radeon X700 64MB Sound Card Conexant AC-Link Audio Screen Resolution 1280x800 |

utorrent was the third program i installed, first firefox, then AVG and like I said before it happens with every client too. Disabling AVG didn't help either, still dead. I'll try uninstalling AVG and seeing where it goes from there. Anyone have some suggestions for free AV software? | My System Specs | | |

thanks dude, it's been going for about 5 minutes now crash free without AVG installed. It's too bad really, I like AVG but I'll try out Avast, here's some rep for both of you. | My System Specs | | |

AVG + uTorrent running here without any issues so I'm not sure that is your problem. However if Avast works for you, go for it. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Built by my Indian friend.
