BSODs:NETw5s64.sys,vsdatant.sys,netio.sys, what to do?

[Sami]

I'm having random BSOD's on my HP pavilion dv6 2140ef with Windows 7 64-bit.
- There seems to be no particular pattern to the crashes...twice a day in the average, not tied to any particular activity.
- I've tested the memory, using recommended tools and the memory is fine.
- I've checked for my drivers, particularly networking drivers but they are all in their most recent version.
- With WinDBG Debugger, I've analyzed my big memory.dmp file (about 650 Mb), and I give you the report, named "Debugging Memorydump Report"
- All dump files seem to point to netio.sys, tied to NETw5s64.sys and vsdatant.sys
- The two last minidump files are zipped and attached too

Thanks for your help!

Well your problems are coming from several sources.
1-Old drivers that date back to 2005
2- corrupt system files (run a system file check (sfc /scannow)
3-your RAID

I would update the drivers (including and especially the raid driver) and run sfc /scannow

Let us know if you need help

Thanks.
When I run "sfc /scannow" from an elevated command prompt, it reports "no integrity violations".
-For the drivers, I don't have any idea of how to do all these one...
-RAID ? what's that and where can I see it, please ?

I am glad sfc said no problems. to update the drivers take the driver name and google it. that will show you who made it. then go there and download the newest most relevant driver for your system.

For example the first one in the list (which is from 2005) is iirsp.sys, when you google that it takes you here. iirsp.sys - Google Search, which shows it is a RAID driver and tells you where to go to get a newer one. Are you running a raid?

If you dont have more than one HD (to make a raid you need at least two, you sholdnt be loading the drivers etc)

Uninstall Zone Alarm which is causing your problems. It is an excellent program as I use it myself, but your version in use must not be so good.

 

[Sami]

Solved problem of BSODs. Thanks !

Ok. It's done. I've desinstalled Zonealarm and avira antivir. I use only the windows firewall and MS Security Essentials as antivirus, anti-spyware and anti-maleware. For the present, my notebook seems to be stable and clean. No bluescreen today...

I've updated my drivers (I've left Driver Genius Professionnal Edition 9 Trial version dectecting them for me) and there were 25 which were outdated...I have only one hard drive but I updated my RAID regardless.

Thanks a lot for your efficiency of troubleshooting my problems
