Vista Beta 2, build 5384
EZ Antivirus software
After install of EZ had blue screen crashes within 5 minutes.
After 4 crashes I uninstalled EZ
crashes stopped, maybe by coincidence
Anyone having similiar experiences???

I had same problem with P-cillion, removing it solved my problems. Then I
installed EZ (ANTI-VIRUS ONLY) and seems to work fine.

Hmmmmm

PC-Cillin works fine for me.

Yes, Vista was running fine until I installed EZ. Then, after I re-booted as
directed, it froze every time the desktop finished loading. In the end I had
to start in safe mode and remove it. It's been fine since but I must now try
another anti-virus program.

Yes, very similar. In my case the PC froze just after start-up and a blue
screen would probably have followed if I hadn't turned off. I've had to
uninstall in safe mode and will now try another AV program.

I have gone back to using PC Cillion anti-virus. Only installed the basic's.

Working OK.

But on a side note and may not have anything to do with anti-virus. If I
re-boot with my Wireless PCMCIA card plugged in the system freezes shortly
after boot up. But if I leave the card un-plugged boot up, then when boot up
finished plug the card in, all works fine.

Yes, I had the same situation. It gave me a blue screen during installation.
When the system rebooted it seemed as if the installation went OK but I had
the blue screens quite often. However, I also had blue screen whenever I
inserted a dvd or tried to access it. I am not sure whether they are related.
The same dvd worked fine in XP.

I do not have any virus software right now and I will check for blue screen
when I insert the same dvd. The dvd is for my backup and I left it open,
which may have something to do with the blue screen.
