Monitor hardware temperature with system monitoring software like Speccy or HWMonitor. Upload a screen shot of the Summary tab as well:

Piriform - Speccy
CPUID - HWMonitor

So exept utorrent and bitTorrent can you tell me a safe turrent download program?
And there it is the ESET and adw log

nommy the first · 11 Sep 2013

Basically there is no thing as a safe torrent program. No matter which one you use, you will never know who uploaded the file and from where you are downloading it, or what the content of your download may be.
It isn't necessarily the program you use, but more the torrents that you are downloading.
For more information about torrents and the risks that come with them you could read my P2P warning in post #13.

In my humble opinion the best torrent program is the 2.2.1 version of UTorrent, as it is a very stable, lightweight program without any adds and I use it myself if I need to download Linux software.

But unless you absolutely need to, I would highly recommend you not to use torrents, as any P2P download client basically is a doorstep for hackers and malware into your computer.

----------

I see that you have uploaded the results of your scans, I will look at them in a few hours, as it is dinner time here

Thank you for your patience,
Nommy

Ok, I edited my last post with the scan logs from both programs

nommy the first · 11 Sep 2013

Both scans found a few things and deleted them, nice.
I would say that your machine is now free of malware

This is where my assistance ends and we wait for someone to assist you with your BSOD problems.
I have requested both Koolkat and several other BSOD experts to take a look here, so please be patient until one of them comes here.

Good luck and keep us posted,
Nommy

Ok, glad that your issue is resolved for now

If the issue persists please try to describe it as good as you can and also let the SF Diagnostic Tool do another run and post that .zip file as well so that we can assist you as effective as possible.
If the issue doesn't come back, please post back your feedback in a few days and mark the thread as solved.

Glad I could be of assistance,

Ok mate just as a last post the temps you quote in post #17 are way too highif you look at this it shows the Tjunc @ 100C now 80-90C in my mind is just tooclose for comfort. Even the idle temps are really not to my liking but hey ifthe machines is working then go for it.
ARK | Intel® Core

But I still think you should look at cleaning the machine up. Just a very simple things you can do is turn the machine over and shine a very bright light into the air intake hole - then look into the air outlet and see if the small "radiator" in there is clear or not. If it looks to be a bit clogged then get a can of compressed air poke a large cable tie into the fan blades in the air intake to stop the fan from spinning and blast the crud out of that radiator. The cable tie is to stop the fan from spinning faster than it is designed to do and if let spin at very fast speeds may wreck the bearing or the blades themselves.
Now in the past if this does not work I have used pipe cleaners (see pic) and very gently cleaned from the outside by very carefully pushing through the pipe cleaner to loosen the crud. But you have to be careful.
Failing this it means disassembling the machine to get to those parts, plus keep in mind you may have a problem with the compound on the dies. Thy are not like the usual CPU /GPU we have in desktops and are the bare silicon chips the the heatsink clamps to.
In the pics is a Toshiba but principle is the same

Thanks, I know how to do that, but I will never do that at home because if I break it, RIP. If I send it to a store and THEY break it I think they pay it back so it's better

.
Now I understand the only problem of laptops, if you want to open them it's hard. On a desktop it's just open and clean, so my next pc is going to be a desktop. Maybe in 1 year I have to buy one.

But as I have said before, I'm almost 100% sure that the problem of the BSOD and the freezes is not overheat.

I notice in your SystemInfo.txt file that you have:

Quote:

Atheros AR8131 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20)
Connection Name: Local Area Connection
Status: Hardware not present

Atheros drivers can cause headaches for Windows 7, if the hardware is not present and you are not using any card that needs the atheros drivers, please un-install the driver(s) and see if that helps.

I also would like you to run this: Windows Genuine and Activation Issue Posting Instructions and post the results in your next reply. There can be inconsistencies in the activation that can cause the problems you are having, and this report will help us find them.
