Getting the blue screen of death when connecting iphone

Hello,
Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my laptop to which I have synced my Iphone for over a year is crashing when connecting my phone to sync. I have a 3gs running OS 4.3 and Itunes is up to date. When I first got the phone, I had to disable the built in webcam on the laptop in order to prevent this same problem but it has been working fine since.
I have updated all the drivers but to no avail. Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks for any help!

Upgrade that Acer Aspire to a Mac. Guaranteed you'll never see a BSOD

Blue Screen of Death when Connecting iPhone

I have had no problems for the past two months connecting and syncing iPhone...now, the last few days, whenever I connect the iPhone, the monitor goes to the Blue Screen of Death and I have to reboot. I get the error message driverirql_not_less_orequal...and it also references a little further down the screen mxopswd.sys. Any thoughts?

DrMarsha,
Have you taken any photos with your iPhone? If so, you may be experiencing this issue:

Blue screen of death when connecting ipod or running itunes

Please help me, I get the blue screen of death and its down to my itunes/ipod i think.
Uninstalled Itunes (tried doing this in safe mode but it wouldnt let me saying you cant do this) and re-installed it but when try to use it (ipod not connected) my screen either freezes a few moments later or the BSOD appears.
Ive ran a windows disk check and a system mechanic 7 one as well, a few folk on here have said my ipod might need reset but this is happening without the Ipod connected so is still an issue?
My ipod seems to be working fine, obviously i cant even access itunes to reset it or see its status.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried this?

I have a new iPhone 4 and every time I plug it into my laptop I get the "blue screen of death", it didn't do this the first time because I downloaded all my music from iTunes but ever since it has done this. Anybody have any insight?

I have an iPhone 4 and downloaded all my iTunes music to it. Now when I connect it to my laptop I automatically get the "blue screen of death", does anyone have any insight into this problem?

This will happen if you have photos in your camera roll and an out-of-date scanner or webcam driver. See this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502

N97, blue screen of death when connected to PC

I recently had my phone in to have the touch screen fixed. Today I tried to connect it to my PC using the USB for the first time since getting it back, after adding a few music albums to the mass storage I keep getting the blue screen of death on my computer.
Now I have checked for any PC related problems but have found nothing that could be causing this apart from the phone.
Has anyone had this problem or know of a solution?

Not had the problem, but assuming your phone is in PC Suite mode, try removing all nokia/ovi software and re-installing the latest version. If in Mass Storage mode, can't see how phone can affect computer, it's just and external hard drive and shouldn't be any different to plugging in a usb memory stick !
Also it could be pure coincidence and your computer may have just developed a fault ?
Good Luck
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Why is Encore 6.0 giving me the "blue screen of death" when I try to create a menu?

When I purchased my student edition 6.0 (which I love by the way), Encore did not have any of the libraries loaded up on it. After reading some discussions, I downloaded the missing folders.
Now, when I try to create a menu, my computer shuts down and gives me "the blue screen of death" as they call it (a blue screen with white writting, counting up to 100%, and saying Windows is preparing to crash...or something about the hard drive crashing....I can't remember because it goes off the screen so quickly).
I've done this several times - my computer only does this when I try to create a menu in encore, and not in any other part of encore. It hasn't happened in any of the other programs either (Premiere Pro and Audition are the only other programs I have used so far), or any other times I have my laptop.
Because of this, I am not too concerned since it seems Encore is the problem. However, I do not want any other problems to escalade from this either.
Am I doing something wrong? Can someone please help me? I'm working on my Senior Thesis (a video) this year, and I really really cannot afford to have my computer crash on me.
Please and thank you,
Meghin

Blue screen of death when disconnecting iPhone from computer

So I bought the iPhone and even though I own a Mac I decided to connect it to my work PC which happens to run Windows XP. Everything worked great until I took a picture with the iPhone. As soon as I connected the iPhone, the computer crashed with a blue screen of death. So I looked it up on the forums here and found the article that talks about what COULD be the issue. What Apple is saying with that article basiclly is that this is "your" problem and not theirs so good luck trying to find which one of the 50 drivers that I have on my machine causes the issue. I tried to fix it by updating the drivers that they recommend and the problem is still there. Fine, I will not take pictures with the iPhone.
And then yesterday out of the blue (no pun intended) iTunes gave me an error message when I connected the iPhone, I didn't pay any attention to it and dismissed it only to find out that now every time I remove the iPhone from the computer, it crashes it with a blue screen of death. So now I can't sync the iPhone at all! How much more unsaved work am I going to loss because of this product?
On a personal note, I am a huge fan of Apple's products but I am extremely upset about this. Not only did Apple create a sloppy software implementation, they are making it look like it's a Windows problem. None of the other products that are installed on my machine cause my computer to crash like that, and if I do have an outdated driver (which I doubt!) then the developers of those products have found a way to deal with them WITHOUT crashing!
Please advise

ok. first I couldn't log in with my previous nickname (not sure why) so I created a new one. Anyways, thank you for your reply and I'm sorry for coming off like jack it's just that losing your data three times will do that to you. I will tunnel my anger back at Microsoft I guess.
In any event, I went back and took a look at my drivers and didn't find any Lexmark or Logitec in there, however I decided to remove the built-in camera driver that came with the laptop and that seemed to work (it turns out that Logitec makes that camera!). I also moved the USB cable to a different port on the computer and now I don't get the blue screen when I disconnect the iPhone.
Thanks again for your help, it seems like I am safely syncing again
p.s. since I can't log in as the original author you might want to have a mod mark the question as answered. thanks.

When I open FireFox i get the blue screen of death and then vista restarts. I get to login and then afterthe welcome window it crashes and restarts again. I can open in safe mode but if I open firefox again it restarts this loop.

The other day I opened firefox after the latest update in September. Firefox then closes and then i get logged off and vista(32 bit) restarts. I get back to login and when I try to login it gives me the blue screen and restarts again with the selection screen (start in safe mode....)I was able to login on safe mode and then on admin afterwards. Thinking the problem was just an error I went back and opened firefox on my account and the loop started again. I was forced to remove firefox but I want ti back and I want to know how this can be fixed so I can put it back on my computer.

See below -- the way I asked the question the first time may not be clear. This post was a goof but I can't figure out how to delete it

New MacBook getting the "Blue Screen of Death" equivalent

So I just snagged a macbook from my school's bookstore.
I've gotten the "you need to restart your computer message" that shows up in 5 languages or so twice already in the first day. i.e. the Mac equivalent of the Windows "Blue Screen of Death". I believe its called a "Fatal Error".
I don't remember what I was trying to do the first time (I /think/ I was attempting to browse my network from the sidebar in Finder), but the second I was trying to get a program called Studiometry (http://www.oranged.net/studiometry/) to connect to my iMac and sync the program's database. I was already connected via Finder (Go >> Connect to Server). When I chose "connect to server" in Studiometry a second after it attempted to connect--Kaboom! I can't get the program to connect, but that doesn't concern me: I'm more worried about keeping this suspect machine.
Other than playing with the pre-installed stuff (iLife, PhotoBooth, etc.) I have:
1. Installed Windows XP SP2 with Boot Camp
2. Used http://www.logmein.com/ to remote in from OS X on my MacBook to Windows Vista Ultimate at work.
3. Installed Studiometry
There is nothing else I have done that doesn't come in the box.
I had a PowerBook give me grief the first week and the bum crashed on me pretty hard. Not interested in that again and I'm thinking of taking this back for a new one. Ugly babies usually get cute in a month or two, but ugly computers typically don't.
Any suggestions?

Ever since I started paying attention to battery power v. adapter, all have occurred on battery power and none while the adapter was plugged in. (The first two I don't know, but all the rest were on battery).
One of them actually happened while I was sending a file using Bluetooth from my iMac (still probably airport though since it was on).
While this is fun and all, I'm taking this bugger back and exchanging for a new one. Apple can have a blast troubleshooting this for a refurb. :P

Blue Screen of Death when connecting ipod

Create an ISO (Encore) or folder on your hard drive (Encore or Premiere Elements) and then use the FREE http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download to write files or folders or ISO to disc for DVD or BluRay (send the author a PayPal donation if you like his program)
Imgburn will read the ACTUAL disc brand from the disc, which is not always the same as the box label (Memorex is notorious for buying "anything" and putting it inside a Memorex box)
When you write to disc with Imgburn, use the SLOWEST possible speed setting, so your burner has the best chance to create "good, well formed" laser burn holes... since no player is required to read a burned disc, having a "good" one from a high quality blank will help

Windows gives Blue screen of death when connect ipod

I have an ipod 20g and everytime i connect it to my 2.0 usb windows freezes gives me a blue screen and restarts

same problem here, also with a 20gb ipod. Mine also shuts the PC down on a disconnect of the ipod as well although this is less frequent.
I was using the USB2 ports on the front of my Dell but I've swithed them round now and am using a Firewire port on the back and touch wood it hasn't happened in the 2 days since I switched over.

Getting the "blue screen of death" on my Toshiba L645 Laptop

i guess thats what some people are calling it...
its been happening for the last 8 months. Every once in a while, mabye once a week, and sometimes a few times a week, it suddenly shows a blue screen and it has said: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and System_Service_Exception different times...and then it shuts down and restarts the computer.
is there any easy-fix for this? I have asked around alot and some say use your recovery discs, some say do a thorough bug scan, etc. I dont really want to have to backup all the crap I have on here... I have Bitdefender Total Security 2012, supposedly one of the best security systems out there, so I would think it would have found a bug if it was that...
im no expert so I have no idea what either of these: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and System_Service_Exception means...
so any help would be appreciated! thanks!

I wasn't able to find the model number but you might want
to try recovering the system to the out-of-box state.
The manual for your machine will have the instructions.
You'll want to back up your files first. It takes a while to
recover the system so you'll want to have the machine
plugged in.
To recover the original factory image using the utilities on your
computer’s internal storage drive:
1 Make sure the computer is turned off.
2 Press and hold the 0 (zero) key on your keyboard while
powering on the computer.
3 If your system offers a choice of Windows® 7 32-bit or 64-bit
operating system, select one at this time. If not, skip to step 4.
4 A warning screen appears, stating that when the recovery is
executed all data will be deleted and rewritten. Click Yes to
continue.
5 When the Toshiba Recovery Wizard opens and the Selecting a
process screen displays, select Recovery of Factory Default
Software and then click Next.
6 The Recovery of Factory Default Software screen appears.
Select Recover to out-of-box state.
7 Click Next.
A confirmation message displays reminding you that all data
will be lost during the recovery process. Be sure to save your
work to external media before proceeding.
8 Click Next to begin the recovery.
When the process is complete, a message displays indicating
that the internal storage drive has been recovered.
9 Press any key on the keyboard to restart the computer.

When I open and close firefox about 3 times, I get the blue screen of death. Why? Also Firefox only opens every second time, and I have to close it manually to fix the problem. How can I avoid this?

I have to close the firefox from my task list. Before I do that I can't open any web browser. This is really annoying, and I have had this problem only after using Firefox 4.
