BlueScreen - Suspecting malware

Unread postby Tubba » March 23rd, 2009, 9:00 am

I've gotten blue screens every now and then for the last two weeks or so. Sometimes it happens a while after I boot my comptuter, sometimes it works a entire sessions. I'm not certain it's malware, but it's better to check.
- As obvious from log file below, I run Vista x64
- I've been running Spybot S&D and AVG Free ever since I got my computer in August last year.
- I've run all ordinary stuff (CHKDSK etc) so it's probably either malware or a malfunctioning program. Computer seems to work fine in safe mode, though.
- Also, I have a router.

Thanks.

Re: BlueScreen - Suspecting malware

Unread postby NonSuch » March 23rd, 2009, 8:06 pm

I see from what you've posted, and from your HijackThis log, that your operating system is Windows Vista 64 Bit.

It is an unfortunate reality that the tools we use to analyze and remove malware will not work properly on 64 bit operating systems. Therefore, although some may appear to produce results, those results cannot be relied upon. Because of this limitation, it is almost impossible for us to correctly diagnose your problems. Additionally, any fixes we might attempt would carry the potential to do as much or more damage to your system as the malware that may be infecting it. At this time, we have no one available with the necessary experience with 64 bit systems that would be required in order to inspect your machine manually. So, I'm very sorry but we lack the ability to help you at this time. Most likely, you will find the same or similar circumstances at other help forums.

If your problem is malware related, your only options may be to either seek local, paid, professional assistance, or to reformat your hard drive and reinstall your Windows operating system. There is always the possibility that your problem is not malware related, therefore, you may want to consider posting for help at one of the general help forums to see if someone there might be able to assist you with your problem.

The following sites have help sections for non-malware related problems, e.g., software and/or hardware problems:

http://forums.whatthetech.com/forums.html
http://www.techsupportforum.com

For Dell computers, try:

http://en.community.dell.com/?~ck=ln&lnki=0&nav=true

We are sorry that we are unable to help at this time and wish you the best of luck in finding a solution to your problem.

As this issue involves a 64 bit system and therefore falls outside the scope of this forum, this topic is now closed.
