Installed bitdefender antivirus plus today, and about 2 hrs later my laptop bluescreened. Windows tried to do its own self repair and restarted and now it doesnt even see a bootable device. Customer service guy says i need a windows 7 boot disk to be able to do anything as i am not able to boot into safe mode or anything. Is it possible to make a boot disk on another device ? or what can i do.

Typing on a phone so pardon the mess

On another windows 7 pc use this guide to create one:

I personally would call bitdefender and ask for help. It is their product after all. I haven't heard or read any reports of this happening lately with there products. They are a pretty good antivirus company.

It's possible the Bsod could be caused by an infection on your pc.

Where did you download bitdefender from?

What exact error do you get if you (try to) boot now?
