Default Re: Does Any One Know Where
It is a horrible feeling when one cannot trust ones own computer. Everytime I start it now I sit here with a fear that its going to BSOD me again.

In my case the HD is fine. The problem was caused when XP was updated following the installation of new Nvidia drivers after I unistalled Norton and then installed and then uninstalled AVG.

I think now that the problem is a conflict between the latest XP security update and Nvidia's latest 91.31 drivers. After the complete system restore the very last thing I did was install the new Nvidia drivers. Today the PC has worked flawlessly until XP did a security update. Following the reboot, crash city. It even crashed on a safemode reboot. Following that I was given the option to restore to previous last known good configuration and did so. I have since rebooted again with no problems. Which brings me back to its a horrible feeling knowning that you cannot trust your own computer.

Very scary.
