Hi everyone,
I am practically 100% sure that the problem was AVG 9. After I uninstalled it until now my system is absolutely stable.

Hi bowzee,
I have the exact same motherboard...!
I upgraded to AVG 9.0 but luckily I am not experiencing the same issues as you are.
Quite a few people have left AVG for other virus protection softwares because of issues around the new AVG.
Glad to see you finally got it sorted anyway..

Bad news, the problem is back no AVG installed... Maybe it is a Windows 7 bug which gets triggered by AVG and something else I may have installed in the past 24 hours... I will keep posting...
Hi Bowzee,
Have you tried the latest firmware patch for your motherboard ??
Might be worth a shot, assuming its motherboard related.

Hi engin33r,
Yes, my motherboard has the latest firmware... I have these items in my system:
1) Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic board
-> the bug happened without the drivers for this;
2) generic nVidia 8600 GT video board
-> Windows 7 installs a default driver for it and the bug happened with it;
3) two monitors.
Since my last post I uninstalled the K-lite codec packs (both 32 and 64 bits) and the stability has improved but the bug still occurs.
Before Windows 7 I was using the Release Candidate for several months and this bug never took place.
