Re: blue screens

The dump file should be analysed, it gives normally the cause of the BSOD.
What says the C:\Users\Brian\AppData\Local\Temp\WER447E.tmp.version.txt file?

Hey B1_Returns,

Here are the details I found about that BSOD code,

Bug Check 0xB8:
The ATTEMPTED_SWITCH_FROM_DPC bug check has a value of 0x000000B8. This indicates that an illegal operation was attempted by a delayed procedure call (DPC) routine.

Parameters
The following parameters are displayed on the blue screen.
Parameter Description
  • 1 The original thread causing the failure
  • 2 The new thread
  • 3 The stack address of the original thread
  • 4 Reserve

Cause
A wait operation, attach process, or yield was attempted from a DPC routine. This is an illegal Software operation.

Resolution
Uninstall Antivirus, antispyware, defrag software and other system monitoring tools and also run chkdsk /f /r /x
