I have a compaq lappy in here that I am having some issues with.
Customer brought it to me and told me he thinks there is a virus on it. I booted it up into safe mode, ran mbam, found 3 things, then ran SAS found nothing. Rebooted. It says its configuring updates 3 of 3 then BSOD comes 0x8E..
So I reboot, get into safe mode, run tdss killer, gmer, and then ran combofix just to be safe. reboot, same thing again.
Next I get back into safe mode, renamed the software distribution folder to .old and then rebooted, same BSOD.
I did a system restore 3 times to three very different restore points, and I still get the exact same BSOD. Funny thing is, when I use the bluescreenview tool it doesnt show ANYTHING at all.
I have tried everything I can think of and have spent hours on google checking things out. I have tested the hard drive and it is fine. And it runs boot disks very well, so I am ruling out the ram.
When the BSOD comes on it does not point to any drivers, it just says
0x0...8E (0xC0...05, 0x81e50759, 0xA666291C)
I am stumped...does anyone have any suggestions before I nuke and pave this damn thing??
oh wanted to add that I have also ran system file check and still have the same result.
