Solved BSOD Win 7 Pro x86 error: ataport.sys

[jamesmarino]

I am trying to find the issue here, I feel it is a driver, but I am not sure. Doing a wipe and install is possible, but is the last resort.

Seems that there was a root kit, I removed it and Windows would boot into user account then give me BSOD a minute or so in. (Any user account)

When booting in Safe Mode, no BSOD. Any help isolating the driver, service or other problem would be very appreciated.

Thank you

It found a root kit and removed it. Seems like things are fine now.

Thank you!
