    Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'll try to run some tests, running sfc right now. Got a CD, will burn SeaTools as soon as possible. Also updating the graphics driver. Screenshot coming up too. If nothing helps then I'll try a clean install of the OS. Well I'll just try everything you suggested. If that doesn't help I'll probably throw this computer out the window :)

    Wouldn't it be just as easy to use the Seatools from Downloads?? I do as the the versions do change from time to time:)

    Sooooo I ran SeaTools tests, both long and short, no problems were found. Also ran sfc, some problems were found and fixed, but some were not fixed. It said this:


    Oh and I was trying to update my graphics driver.The update utility gave me the same driver. I saw the thread on the forum with these drivers, but there were only drivers for 3rd and 2nd generation processors and mine is 1st generation I think. So I decided to update it with DriverScanner.

    Anyways, here's a screenshot from Speecy:

    CPU temperature most of the time is from 40C to 60C, hard drive is about 40C-45C most of the time. It's probably sightly too hot. Or is it normal?

    Oh and another thing. Desktop gadgets and window manager crash randomly pretty often. Also the battery is being weird. When I unplug and battery reaches 80% (today it was 90%), computer turns off without any warning, and when I turn it back on again the fan gets really loud and computer turns off after a few seconds, so I need to plug in.. Could this have anything to do with the blue screens?

    Also, I checked some crash dumps myself with BlueScreenView and some were caused by SynTP.sys, which I believe should be my touchpad driver. I guess I should update it.. Also some were caused by graphics driver obviously. Also one was caused by ataport.SYS.. What is that? I googled it, it said it was a virus. Is this true? I ran TDSSKiller again, it didn't kill anything..

    ataport.sys is the controller driver for ata channels under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. It is one of the most vulnerable driver for rootkit infections. And if it is is detected, the first step is to be taken is to scan the system for possible virus infection with the following programs.


    Do those. Save the TDSSKiller log and upload it here.

    If it is not a virus, it is the error of the controller itself. But the chance is minimum, as you use all the generic drivers.

    If possible, opt for a BIOS update. No BIOS update is available in MSI Global ? Notebook & Tablet - CR620

    The CPU temperature is critical. It may tend to high to cause failures. I would suggest you to either get it serviced so that the ventilations are cleared and thermal pastes are re-applied etc, or as a temporary solution use a cooling pad.

    Run SFC again a few more times to see if it can repair the OS, but if not the next step is to run a Repair Install.

    However if this is the original factory preinstalled Win7 then now is the time to get a perfect Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7. I've already told you that is the worst possible install of Win7 one can have, so I don't know why you're continuiing to mess with it unless you prefer crap.

    I won't have this computer for 2 days, soooo I'll post the log thing on Friday. Will run a scan with Windows Defender Offline. I don't have a cooling pad, but I use plastic bottle caps to keep an air gap there. I don't know if this helps, but still it's still probably better than nothing. I should really get it cleaned sometime soon.
    I can't do the reinstall now, the earliest I can do it is in 2 weeks. Maybe if I'm lucky next week.
