unninstall avast as two AV's is not a gr8 idea

 

[tremaine]

security essential is enough protection? and is that the problem for all the crashes ?

yes only use one antivirus that is sufficient , although I cannot find anything to say that is what caused the crashes if you unninstall avast we will have eliminated one possibility.

your crashes are for more than one reason

I would check your temperatures and also burn to CD and run from boot memtest86 for at least 3 passes ......

please post your results here ?

 

[tremaine]

i will do that, when i boot from cd does it run automatically or do i have to set it up ?

security essential is enough protection? and is that the problem for all the crashes ?

oh and i checked my temps the cpu is running at around 39c and the motherboard at 33c, so i dont think its that.

 

[ickymay]

i will do that, when i boot from cd does it run automatically or do i have to set it up ?

It will auto run , just follow the prompts, assuming you have boot from cd enabled in your BIOS

best to let it run overnight, If you get errors you have bad ram, take out all but one stick and rerun the test to see if it's just one stick ?

 

[tremaine]

ok will do

Well i tool your advice ickymay and uninstalled avast, and had my computer running for 15 hours with no bsod, during that time i was played warcraft, streamed video over my netowrk,surfed the net etc... this afternoon i came home to another bsod, ive attached the minidump file.
ps. i didnt run the memtest becaue it seemed the problem was solved.

Ive reinstalled my windows hoping to solve the problem, but that hasnt solved the problem, I have win 7 ultimate 64 bit, im using avast antivirus, and Microsoft security essentials.Ive added my minidumps thats have happened in the last 24 hours.Could some please take a look at them, i have no idea what the problem is.thank you

sounds like we have made some progress at least as you could have more than one problem causing crashes

this latest minidump shows as ........

I reckon this still points at the crash being hardware based but you do have some drivers that need updating

ENTECH64.sys fffff880`07ad8000 fffff880`07adf000 0x00007000 0x40641784 26/03/2004 11:44:04

can you run the memtest86 overnight and let us know how it goes ?

not sure of the numbers without the headers

what we are looking for is simple pass and fails ?

 

[tremaine]

here are the results attached.

Looks like errors during MemTest.
If so, then the memory is likely to be bad.
Have you tried the steps starting with Step 7 in this link: Memory Diagnostics
in order to find out if it's the sticks or the slots?
