    Hmmm- we may need to repair the database itself....
    Open an Elevated Command Prompt.

    Run the following commands...

    net stop cryptsvc
    esentutl /p %systemroot%\System32\catroot2\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\catdb

    Click OK to confirm that you should run this tool only on databases that are corrupt. If the tool reports that the database is corrupt, then you will need to empty the catroot2 folder, so that its contents can be rebuilt
    run
    net start cryptsvc
    to start Cryptographic Services,
    then again leave the system for a while to rebuild the databse

    There is no catdb folder in {F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}

    In fact both directories under catroot2 are empty.

    (I restarted cryptsvc after error)

    That sounds as if someone has damaged the catroot folder. (note: not the catroot2 folder!)

    Please run the following commands and post the results.

    Code:
    DIR C:\Windows\prnsv003.cat /s
    DIR C:\Windows\windows-legacy-whql.cat /s

    Hmmm -
    Please Open Event Viewer, and save the Windows Logs \Application and \System , compress then, and attach them to a reply.
    There should be a clue there somewhere, if we have any luck at all.

    just in case you already grabbed it, I noticed there was a folder that was saved out as well, which I added to the compressed file. The file size is now 3.37mb in case you downloaded the first one already.

    Every reference I can find to the relevant errors (Search and CAPI2 failures) refers me back to IRST and IMST drivers
    Let's try removing both sets of drivers completely as far as possible, then uninstalling your Turbo completely.
    reboot, wait 20 minutes, and run the commands from post 91 again and see if the folder rebuilds - if not, then rename catroot2 again and wait a further hour before rebooting.
    Post another MGADiag report, run an SFC /SCANNOW and post the CBS.log file together with new Event logs.

    I see that Intel have just released updated drivers (for Win7/8 ONLY) at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...&DwnldID=22194
    Please try them eventually, and post another MGADiag report.

    removed intel software, removed turbo card.

    cannot install any version of IRST now due to "computer does not meet minimum requirements". the July 10.6 version did previously install and now it does not *shrug*

    there is nothing in catroot2 folder.

    files attached, looks to be same as before.
