    Random BSODs - Memory Management?


    Hello again.

    I've recently been getting random BSOD's again even after formatting and re-installing my operating system last week.

    The latest BSOD error I've caught was Memory_Management. I've attached all files and minidumps. Have gotten around 10 BSODs and screen freezes within a week.

    -Retail Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (fresh re-install last week)
    -New Video Card HD6850 (think I installed correct drivers)
    -SSD Boot drive
    -HDD Storage Drive

    Thanks
      My Computer

    Hello there cxw22,

    It appears Kaspersky may be causing your problems.

    Kaspersky is a frequent cause of BSOD's.
    Suggest you remove and replace it with Microsoft Security Essentials AT LEAST TO TEST.

    Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows

    Damn... I was hoping that wasn't the problem.

    I've had other people tell me it was Kaspersky and I've only been hesitant to remove it because I've spent like $60 on it.

    Just curious... why does the same exact version of kaspersky on other computers not cause any problems? I have it on 2 others and have no problems with it.

    Also, what AV do you suggest buying in the future that doesn't cause BSODs? ESET? AVG?
    - I feel like a free AV won't do the job in the environment I'm working in (torrents and stuff like that)

    Re your questions above...

    No three computers are exactly the same.
    The combinations of programs, drivers, hardware components etc are infinite.
    Throw in different patterns of use, no matter how small & comparisons become irrelevant.
    Why does one member of a family become ill & the others not so?

    Anecdotal evidence indicates { from a BSOD perspective} no AV's with the possible exception of MSE are totally immune.
    {Disclaimer I do use AVG paid on 3 different computers here.}
