    I did the sigverif and it came back that all were signed. I went into the control panel and clicked on system. I did not find a hardware tab or anything else after that, mind you I am in safe mode.

    Hi SurgiKill,
    Sorry it took me so long to get back to you but I have done allot of searching on the "Security Process Loader Driver" and really did not come up with anything concrete on what the fix was for it with the exception of one. The instructions provided were to reinstall the drivers for the graphics card...Apparently that particular suggestion fixed that persons problem. Until I can come up with more info, it won't hurt to give that a try. You will need to find out what type of graphics card you have and go to the web site of it to get the latest ones.

    I read that post too and I have done that multiple times. It hasn't helped at all. EVGA wants me to rma wy wotherboard but I am positive it is not a motherboard issue because it works in safe mode. I booted into normal made today and played call of duty for an hour straight. I then exihed and resumed the download for another one of my games while I went to go have a bowl of cereal. When I came back it was locked right up. I've also noticed that the boot ups are taking longer than usual and that could be an issue with the driver. Is there any way I can disable this driver?

    Hi SurgiKill,
    I am not certain this will disable it but here's the only way I currently know how:
    1. Go to start, run, type: services.msc (press enter).
    2. Scroll down till you see Security Accounts
    3. Double click on it to open it up
    4. To the immediate right of the box that should say "automatic" click on the little arrow and set it to Disabled.
    5. After you click Ok, I usually like to reboot my computer
    Hopefully that works...I will keep trying to find out more info and whenever that may be, I will let you know. In the mean time I wish you the best.

    Alright it froze again. I was able to find the windows you were talking about but wasn't able to change anything. Here's the weird thing. I played a bit of cod, exited the game, and just let my computer sit while i ate dinner, about an hour, then i went back and it was fine, I then resumed a download on Steam and came back a bit later and it was frozen. As of the past few days all the times it has frozen except for two times steam has been downloading a game. Coincidence? Should I run Steam as admin? I'm really at the end of my rope and don't know what to do, it I could at least play games in safe mode I would be happy.

    Hi SurgiKill,
    I do not believe your situation will make a difference if something is run with admin previliges...How much memory does your computer have ?

    Hi SurgiKill,
    That's a very good question...At this point, I think Bootlogging can certainly not hurt and may even help simply because if it is a driver, it will log everything right up to crash time (in your case freeze time). So go for it.

    t I updated my marvell yukin driver and I disabled "let the computer turn off this device to save power. It hasn't frozen yet. If it does again I'll go through with the bootlogging.
