Well there seem to be lot of NTFS errors. They can be caused by Antivirus programs.

RECOMMENDATIONS

I'd first suggest you to remove these programs with relevant removal tool by searching in google or use the free version of Revo uninstaller, uninstall in "Advanced Mode":

System Optimisers

These programs can be cause of BSOD's. The windows 7 operating system does not require these registry cleaning software. They often tune-down rather than tune-up and can wreck the OS beyond repair. Microsoft have improved Windows 7 significantly and it is much better at organising and optimising itself than its predecessors. Check this, this and this thread for evidence.

If you feel the need to use a registry cleaning or optimisation software, most of us recommend the use of CCleaner but make sure you back up the registry before making letting ccleaner delete anything.

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

• Disk Check

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:

• Click on the
• Type CMD on Search
• Left click and Run as Administrator
• Type SFC /scannow

Full tutorial here:

• SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

Keep Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows and Malware bytes. They're a good combination.

Hope that helps for now.

OK. Thanks for the info koolkat77. I am running CCleaner again to see if I can get the computer to BSOD again. I am wiping the freespace on the drive and have noticed this directory full of junk is being created. Could this be the NTFS corruption? I have run CheckDisk and it found nothing.

Well.

Scan the system for viruses:

• Windows Defender Offline

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:

• Click on the
• Type CMD on Search
• Left click and Run as Administrator
• Type SFC /scannow

Hi koolkat77.
This is more of an FYI. I think the issue of the blue screen I got last night (first one I have ever had on this machine) was caused by CCleaner writing a bunch of folders full of files and zipped files called zzzzzz etc.(like the image I posted). I am clearing up the freespace on the drive with the virtual machines on it and the same directory structure is being created.
I can find no errors in system files, no viruses. There are 3 OS on the machine and a bunch of virtual machine images for messing about with. I'll leave it a day or two and then close the post.
Thank you for your help,
Tony.:)

Good luck :)
