I have Norton 360 and it didn't like that file is it going to matter?

 

[Jonathan_King]

Disable Norton for the time being, as that file is safe.

Just a heads-up, unless another cause is apparent, I will ask you to remove Norton, as it is a known cause of BSODs.

You can wait for it, or start now if you wish. Here is the Norton removal tool: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

Here is MSE, our recommended alternative: http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials

 

[ImNickson]

There ya go. I hope I did that right.

 

[Jonathan_King]

Do go ahead and remove Norton, at least until the BSODs stop. Then you can reinstall it if you like.

Install this ATI driver: ATI Catalyst

You want Option 2 - Individual Downloads>Catalyst Control Center

[ImNickson]

All the test passed, and I downloaded the drivers. I also removed Norton and installed MSE. I will post again here if the problem persists. Thank You _King for helping me out so quickly.

 

[Jonathan_King]

You're welcome.

Keep us posted on the results!

 

[ImNickson]

I am now getting this box

Catalyst Control Centre: Host application has stopped working

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

When I click Close Program the box pops up again moments later.

 

[Jonathan_King]

Hmm...uninstall the Catalyst Control Center in Programs and Features, and then install the driver you just downloaded again.

 

[ImNickson]

I'm not sure which driver you are referring to. But the removal is complete

 

[Jonathan_King]

Here is a direct link to the ATI drivers: https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/920...mobile/10-8_mobility_vista_win7_32-64_ccc.exe

It may or may not work, direct links on that site are spotty!

 

[ImNickson]

Done. I will update ya when I get one.

 

[ImNickson]

Almost 24 hours and no BSOD's _King you are the man!

 

[Jonathan_King]

Looks good mate! Let us know if it happens again.
