Windows 7 sudden restart

[nikolayy]

Hello,

This is my case...
I was running windows 7 but i was getting lots of sudden restarts.
Then i was running Linux-Ubuntu for a wile and my PC did not crash at all. Only once i remember wile watching youtube...then i untick the hardware acceleration in flash player settings and no problem after that

I am back to windows 7 now. Just finished installing and my PC restarted.
In one day is so far 4 times
Attached is the report...Hope I can get this solved.

Spec:
OS: Windows 7 32 bit
Mobo: Gigabite
Graphics: Ati Radeon 3870
CPU: AMD 9500
PSU: 700 wats
RAM: 4 gigs Crutual Balixtics




Thanks!!!

I'look at the dump in the morning, meanwhile, could you test in Safe Mode? Is it stable then?

Hello,

I left the PC running Prime 95 in safe mode and surprisingly :shock: the system is stable.
The test usually needed less then 30 seconds to crash the PC in safe mode ran for hours.

That could mean that some non-standard drivers are causing it. As that is the dif between Safe Mode and Normal.

Hard to tell because your upload does not include a dump.

You also have some problems with Windows Update

Please go to your Maintenance Center and check the Windows Update status. Make sure you are up to date, do them one by one manually if needed.

To ensure minidumps are enabled:

Go to Start, in the Search Box type: sysdm.cpl, press Enter.
Under the Advanced tab, click on the Startup and Recovery Settings... button.
Ensure that Automatically restart is unchecked.
Under the Write Debugging Information header
Select Small memory dump (256 kB) in the dropdown box (the 256kb varies).
Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as %systemroot%\Minidump.
OK your way out.
Reboot if changes have been made.

and try:
Run a system file check to verify and repair your system files.
To do this type cmd in search, then right click to run as administrator, then
SFC /SCANNOW

Update!!!

Using driver sweeper removed the ati radeon driver.
Re-install the latest one - just the display driver not the hole ati catalyst suite and my system is stable and working so far with no crashes.

Will mark this treat as solved in one week if all is good!!!:roflmao:

 

[MvdB]

That's good news! We regularly see problems with Catalyst...

 

[nikolayy]

Nope!!! Unfortunately it lasted like 2 days...
My PC is back and crashing.
This must be a faulty hardware ...

One of the errors here is:

 Date: 2011-09-02T19:40:16.000
  Event ID: 3002
  Task: N/A
  Level: Error
  Opcode: Info
  Keyword: Classic

  Description: 
Microsoft Antimalware Real-Time Protection feature has encountered an error and failed.
     Feature: Behavior Monitoring
     Error Code: 0x80004005
     Error description: Unspecified error 
     Reason: The filter driver requires an up-to-date engine in order to function. You must install the latest definition updates in order to enable real-time protection.

I'm not a real security expert, other here are better at that.. but I have seen cases of malware where this was the result of an attack.

The second reason I think this is because of this error and the abnormal location of the driver:

Service Name:  Lavalys EVEREST Kernel Driver
Service File Name:  C:\Users\nikolayy\AppData\Local\Temp\EverestDriver.sys
Service Type:  kernel mode driver
Service Start Type:  demand start
Service Account:

Have you installed any Lavalys EVEREST software that you trust? If not, or unsure...
1. Delete that driver
2. boot inSafe mode
3. do a full system scan with your AV and with Anti malware (like malwarebytes)
