    Random BSOD's, worker_thread_returned_at_bad_irql


    Hello,

    Since a few days I have been getting random BSOD's. The screen says: "worker_thread_returned_at_bad_irql" and other text. I ran SF_Diagnostic_Tool.exe and I'll post the results below. Could you help me out?

    Thanks

    Welcome

    Code:
    Start Menu\Programs\McAfee	Public:Start Menu\Programs\McAfee	Public
    McAfee is a known cause to BSOD, please uninstall it. I note that you already have MSE installed but two antiviruses on a computer would create problems anyway.

    Recommended antivirus program for Windows 7 based on stability compared to others:-

    Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.

    Run the System File Checker that scans the of all protected Windows 7 system files and replaces incorrect corrupted, changed/modified, or damaged versions with the correct versions if possible:

    Run Disk Check on your hard disk for file system errors and bad sectors on it:

    Keep us posted of the results and further BSODs if any
