    Several BSODs in past few days


    I believe the Blue Screens and hanging applications began after installing the latest Windows updates. The first thing that went wrong was the AVG anti-virus update got hung up. I then ran a manual update which seems to have fixed that problem. Then the Blue Screens started at no particular time or while using any specific software. I was unable to read the Blue Screens as they automatically disappeared from the screen and the computer restarted. When I attempted to run an SFC /scannow, it would not allow me to do so even though I'm the administrator and never had this happen before. I had to create a new user as Admin in order to run the scan. The scan showed no errors. Attached is everything I saved in zip files. I have Windows 7 32 bit, retail OS, pc is 9 months old, reinstalled system once about 6 months ago.

    These rtwo were Related to AVGIDSFilter.sys IDS Application Activity Monitor Filter Driver. from AVG Technologies

    I note you have AVG.
    AVG can be a contributing cause of BSOD'S .
    Please remove and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials AT LEAST TO TEST

    I uninstalled AVG and reinstalled it. No errors received so far. And I was recognized as the admin when I ran SFC /scannow again. I'm not comfortable with Microsoft products so didn't install their security. When I installed Windows 7, the first thing I did was get rid of the Public User and the Libraries. Then I disabled tabs on IE as they seem redundant since the taskbar already shows all the open windows. However, each time Windows updates are installed, the Libraries appear again. If I were to go back to XP, would it cause any problems with the upgraded hardware on my system? Is it compatible with IE9? Why can't Microsoft create an OS where each option can be selected or not during install? It sure would be better than searching for ways to make it work the way a person wants it to.

    I uninstalled all of the last batch of Windows updates. Still getting Blue Screens. I will next uninstall AVG and install Microsoft Security Essentials and the Windows updates I previously removed. I also sent AVG the file identified as causing the problem. Thanks for your help. I'll follow up in a couple of days.

    Another Blue Screen


    I posted this yesterday. Don't know what happened to it. I uninstalled AVG and installed Microsoft Security Essentials. I installed all Windows updates. That was on Tuesday. At first things seemed to be fine. Then on Wednesday the hang ups began again and finally another Blue Screen. According to one section of the report, the index is corrupted. I rebuilt the index of users only. I was going to rebuild Windows index, but Favorites were included and I didn't know how it would effect that file. Attached are the new dump files.

    KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR (7a)
    The requested page of kernel data could not be read in.  Typically caused by
    a bad block in the paging file or disk controller error. Also see
    KERNEL_STACK_INPAGE_ERROR.
    If the error status is 0xC000000E, 0xC000009C, 0xC000009D or 0xC0000185,
    it means the disk subsystem has experienced a failure.
    If the error status is 0xC000009A, then it means the request failed because
    a filesystem failed to make forward progress.
    Arguments:

    Arg2: c0000185, error status (normally i/o status code)

    Points to bad RAM and/or bad hard disk cabling.
    • Check that your hard disk is properly connected to the system.

    • Run Disk Check with both boxes checked for all HDDs and with Automatically fix file system errors checked for all SSDs. Post back your logs for the checks after finding them using Check Disk (chkdsk) - Read Event Viewer Log

    • Run the boot version of Memtest86+ paying close attention to Parts 2 and 3 of the tutorial. Also, in case Memtest86+ misses anything and comes up with no errors, run the extended version of the Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool for at least five passes. These you may want to run overnight since they take a long time to complete (run them an hour before bed each of the next two nights and check before going to sleep that they are still running).

      If you swap any memory components, follow these steps for ESD safety:
      1. Shut down and turn off your computer.
      2. Unplug all power supplies to the computer (AC Power then battery for laptops, AC power for desktops)
      3. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds to close the circuit and ensure all power drains from components.
      4. Make sure you are grounded by using proper grounding techniques, i.e. work on an anti-static workbench, anti-static desk, or an anti-static pad. Hold something metallic while touching it to the anti-static surface, or use an anti-static wristband to attach to the anti-static material while working.

      Once these steps have been followed, it is safe to remove and replace components within your computer.
