Avira installation causes restart crash
I am running Windows 7 64 bit. HP Laptop. I had uninstalled Avast and rebooted, downloaded the newest Avira antivirus free version for Windows 7. It installed with no problems, but when restarting blue screen of death said Windows cant start, restore worked thank goodness. I went online and did a virus scan, nothing found. I decided that maybe it was caused by Avast not uninstalling completely so I uninstalled Avast once again, rebooted, did a search and even looked in the registry but it was gone. So thought it would be safe to try again. Same thing happened. Again Restore worked and took me back once again. I had already installed Windows 10 version of Avira on both my other Dell Laptop and Desktop with no problems. What could the problem be one this one laptop? I was able to install Kapersky free antivirus, and it restarted fine. Thank you for your time and any help.
