    BSODs after changing to Win7


    Hello everyone,

    two weeks ago I installed an OEM Version of Windows 7 Professional x64 on my 2 year old machine. Before I was running XP 64. Since then I get BSODs very often (sometimes every 3-5 Minutes!), even when the CPUs are not used that much (checking emails...).
    I don't know what to do but I have to finish a project over the weekend.
    I installed new drivers for my mainboard and graphics card, but that didn't help. Memory check said everything is fine. I did not install new hardware, only thing new is an external HDD.
    It would be great if someone could help out or point me in the direction where to look for a solution.

    I'm sorry but some the health report seems to be in german, but the critical information is in english, right?

    I don't know if it's included in the health report, so this is the info I get after the BSOD:

    BCCode: 7f
    BCP1: 0000000000000008
    BCP2: 0000000080050031
    BCP3: 00000000000006F8
    BCP4: FFFFF80002A8B05F
    OS Version: 6_1_7600
    Service Pack: 0_0
    Product: 256_1

    Remove any Zone Alarm software using the removal tool , it was the cause of BSODs

    Code:
    BugCheck 7F, {8, 80050031, 6f8, fffff80002acb05f}
    
    Unable to load image vsdatant.sys, Win32 error 0n2
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for vsdatant.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for vsdatant.sys
    Probably caused by : NETIO.SYS ( NETIO!CompareSecurityContexts+6a )

    Thank you, I will try that. But why does ZoneAlarm cause crashes on Win7? Is it a specific "Zone Alarm" problem, or is it a genral Firewall problem?

    Zone Alarm is a well known problem on some Windows 7 systems .. Yowan is spot on with his analysis .. remove ZA!

    ZoneAlarm sometimes causes conflicts with the networking driver NETIO.sys causing BSODs. This happens randomly so remove it
