Uninstall McAfee Security Scan Plus:

Code:

Start Menu\Programs\McAfee Security Scan Plus

This program is well-known to cause BSODs within Windows 7; install in it's place:

• Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows
• Malwarebytes : Free anti-malware download

Install the free version of Malwarebytes not the free trail; untick the free trail tick box during installation.

Update Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter:

Code:

c:\windows\system32\drivers\athrx.sys

Atheros Wireless Driver List

Update ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series:

Code:

c:\windows\system32\drivers\atikmpag.sys

AMD Driver Autodetect

I uninstalled McAfee as well as VirtualClone Drive, BSOD started on July 20,2012 just prior I installed VirtualClone Drive.
The Atheros WiFi driver was from 6/11/2009, installed 24/07/2012 (I assumpted that Windows update would take care of that)
Thanks

That's good to know, and Windows Update usually only provides updates with Windows drivers and Windows programs.

Have you checked for any updates for your graphics card? Use the link to the auto-detect program on AMD's website.

Have you installed Malwarebytes (free version) and MSE?

Upload any more BSODs that occur, hopefully they won't :)

Hi
