| 848961 | 2010-01-15 09:59:00 | If Windows is starting normally will unticking auto restart still allow me to see the last BSOD? Sorry if I don't quite follow... It'll tell you what the stop error is (show it on screen), (and maybe the name of the file thats causing it), the next time it crashes |

| 848962 | 2010-01-15 10:12:00 | Understood. So there's no way to view past ones? I had a look in the event logs but couldn't make much sense of it. btw, MBAM scan was clean SuperAntispyware returned just the 3 tracking cookies, which I've since deleted. |

| 848963 | 2010-01-15 10:16:00 | You can go to event viewer . Start/run type eventvwr. It maybe under system, or application, on the left. You would have to go thru the entries here (it maybe one of the entries that have a ! or X beside them) | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||

| 848967 | 2010-01-17 01:18:00 | Lets have a look and see if we can see whats actually wrong - download This here (go.microsoft.com) - run it, when finished, select copy, and paste back the complete report. Edited: this is for the Windows not genuine problem. |

| 848968 | 2010-01-17 01:35:00 | Add to above : Edited 2. Just replicated the not genuine problem and fixed it as well, so the fix may work for you, but need to look at that report first. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 848969 | 2010-01-17 23:24:00 | unfortunatly your getting viruses because ms security essential is just some cheap software from microsoft. i've tested it on a extremly infected system which is still infected now and it picked up nothing no trojan worms anything, avast did when i poped my hardrive in my dads pc as a secondry drive +1 for avast! |

| 848970 | 2010-01-17 23:43:00 | And if you had installed Avast! instead it probably wouldn't have detected anything either, it probably had rootkits installed etc. Most AntiVirus fails to detect and clean everything if you install it on an already infected computer, where the virus has already put measures in place to help it stay hidden. However, when you put the drive into another computer and scan it "offline" then the viruses can't hide as they aren't active and are easily detected. For a Microsoft product, Security Essentials isn't actually that bad, apparently. |
