BSOD while logging in Normal Mode

I just realized you have 8 GB RAM installed.

Code:

Installed Physical Memory (RAM)	8.00 GB
Total Physical Memory	3.25 GB

With 32 bit installed you will be limited to 3.xx GB RAM. Why don't you use the 64 bit version of Windows?

It's not 8GB, it's actually 4GB. And I would be able to use Windows 7 in 64-bit if my main computer hadn't broke down last month. It's been repaired and I'm going to pick it up on Monday. Should I send you guys verification of my drivers just to be safe? I'm in Safe Mode right now and already have done an sfc /scannow.

Are you getting BSOD's in safe mode?

Scan your system with the following:

• Kaspersky TDSSKiller
  
  • How to remove malware belonging to the family Rootkit.Win32.TDSS (aka Tidserv, TDSServ, Alureon)

• ESET online scanner
  
  • One-time virus scanner free with ESET online scanner

Nope, just in Normal mode I get these BSODs. Safe mode's okay.

Ok have you scanned the system?

I'm starting with ESET Online scanner as we speak. So far, no viruses. Then I'll run Kaspersky's scan next.

After the virus checks come clean. I'm afraid the next thing I would ask you to do is a clean install of windows but lets enable driver verifier and see if it catches anything.

Use verifier for 36 hours. Then send us the BSOD reports

Driver Verifier

I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).

In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.

Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

How is the system performing now?

Any BSOD's after cleaning the viruses?

Sorry for the late reply, after using the Driver Verifier, I could not on my older PC get to the Log in screen in Normal nor Safe mode and I was not able to clean the viruses afterwards. I have my main custom built computer back after my hard drive needed to be partitioned professionally and repaired.
