    BSOD when undocking laptop


    Hi,

    I work in the helpdesk and am having trouble resolving an issue for a co-worker. I asked him to best describe the issue and here is his response....

    "I will undock it from my desk, close the lid,take it to a meeting where it’s left undocked and unplugged, open the lid, andit’ll bluescreen within a few minutes of the screen coming back up"

    Its a Lenovo T430 running Windows 7 (32 bit) and SP1. There is no minidump folder in the Windows directory (I followed the tutorial on how to create one but it still doesnt create one). I ran the System Update and updated the drivers that were available. I am not sure what else to try here.

    I have had past success resolving issues by getting help from the gurus on here, so if you might have a suggestion on what to try, please let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hello Kevin mate it seems like that machine has a real problem if it is not giving up those dump files.

    If you haven't already can you run these for starters

    ADW download from bleeping computerdelete any rubbish found with the malware scans

    (with ADW ifyou are running Kaspersky it will throw it up as malware just overrideKaspersky by ignoring it or disabling it for the duration of the scan)
