Welcome
I am truly sorry for the delay, but since we are the best forum on the net we often have short delays in responding.
In any event, your problem seems to be a driver. Lets try to find out which one

Driver Verifier
I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).

In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.

Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

ive done what you have asked then tried to install the something with Installshied installer and it worked...
Im confused now because it only blue screened with this particular installer.
Should I leave verifier to do its thing?

Regards

 

[Tw1ch]

Just got the same blue screen just as a different time do i need to report my dump files again?

Thanks =)

 

[richc46]

Leave the verfier on for 36 hours. After that time upload all the reports to us.

 

[Tw1ch]

Hope this will help =)

Thankyou

 

[richc46]

You have to leave the verifier on for 36 hours and then send us the reports. We will have additional reports which makes analysis easier.

 

[Tw1ch]

I haven't turned off the verifier for a week now.. ive had two bsod so far hope this helps

 

[richc46]

Unfortunately, the reports do not show the verifier BSODs. It shows the same BSODs as before the verifier was activated.

 

[Tw1ch]

Must of missed something I will go over it.... Do you mean leave the machine of for 38 hours or am I able to turn it off?

 

[richc46]

Turning on and off should have no effect.
But if you had BSOD the verfier has not affect on the fact that there are no reports.
