Booting my Win7 x64 machine with any USB device connected (printer (if switched on), card reader, web cam) causes windows to crash and then try to repair itself unsuccessfully. Once I disconnect the device then Windows will start fine.
I have attached a zipped BSOD dump.
Any help would be most appreciated thanks!
(nearly) All your .dmp files blame the following driver:
ftdibus.sys Thu Mar 13 13:50:55 2008
I found a link to Future Technology Devices International and the v2.08.08 contains a newer ftdibus driver. But please assure yourself it is the correct one. (restore point before install?)
AVG is known to be a cause of BSOD's on some Win 7 systems so you need to uninstall it. Download the correct AVG Remover for your system, 64 or 32bit. Download Microsoft Security Essentials as its replacement. Uninstall AVG, Re-boot to Safe Mode and run the AVG Remover tool to clean up. Re-boot to normal mode and install MSE. Make sure Windows firewall is enabled.
Outdated drivers can and do cause blue screens:

Hi IggyAZ, I'm trying to think back to when this actually started to cause me problems. It wasn't from new but a few months in. I took the machine back to the manufacturers who couldn't reproduce the fault. When I brought it back home then it was OK until I started connecting up the USB devices again.
Hi fimble, thanks for all your suggestions - I'll try AVG first because it could have started happening about the time I switched over from MacAfee. I'll also try to sort out my drivers, starting with ftdibus.sys. I'll let you know if I make any progress.
