Desktop Software causing Blue Screen!?

Hey Peeps,
I hope there's someone out there that can help with this. I have a BlackBerry Curve with BlackBerry Desktop Software version 6.1 installed. Every time I connect my BlackBerry through the Desktop Software, my computer crashes with a blue screen. It doesn't matter whether you restart the computer or not, the same error appears. What I have noticed is that my processor usage goes up to 100%, and the temperatures of both cores exceeds 75 degrees during the connection. After that, the system crashes. Also, it is not because of the heat or processor usage that the system crashes (system is set to auto-sleep on 95 degrees).
I tried connecting to my BB from both of my systems but no luck. I have also tried downgrading the application by uninstalling the latest version and installing the older version (v6.0). For some reason I can get hold of the older version 5.0. Is there anyone that is experiencing the same problem or maybe have a solution to this problem?
My system configurations:
Primary System:
AMD Athlon X2;
4GB RAM;
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise x64
Secondary System:
Intel Core i5;
4GB RAM;
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Solved!

BB Desktop Software causes Blue Screen at Windows XP

Hi,
I'm using BB Desktop Software 6.1.0.35 at Windows XP over Lenovo X201 laptop. When I try to sync the adressbook or calendar between my BB(Storm II 9520) and my laptop, it often causes blue screen at my laptop.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall the desktop software but the blue screen occures again. But, the same version of Desktop Software at Windows VISTA over HP pavillion Desktop doesn't cause similar problem.
Please kindly let me know how can I fix it or please check if there are any defects at your Desktop Software.
If you need, I can send the screenshot to you via email.
Best Regards,

Just unisntall this version and install the desktop version 5.1. That will not give you blue screen infact it is fully compatible with xp
Need any help please let me know

Desktop Software causes blue screen of death upon sync attempt

I've had this problem off and on (mostly on) since upgrade to version 6.0 bundle 2647 of the desktop software. The desktop software starts up normally. Upon connecting the device (Torch 9800) one of the following occurs:
1. The screen on the device flashes with the connection graphic, then computer goes BSOD.
2. The device is recognized, asks for my password in DTS, put in password, looks as if synch process is about to start, then computer goes BSOD.
3. The device is recognized, password entered, sync proceeds normally.
I get the BSOD about 75% of the time, which means I'm scared to sync very often ... which is a huge problem. When I do attempt to sync, I've learned the hard way to save all data, shut down all programs, and cross my fingers.
My computer is HP TouchSmart tx2, AMD Turion X2, running Vista - 64. I have no problems with any other applications.
I've looked on other forums, tried checking for upgrades, patches, etc. After being a loyal BB proponent since the early days, I'm about ready to leave the reservation. I can't tolerate having RIM products jacking up my computer (which I use to make a living).
If anybody can help me out, point me in the right direction, I certainly appreciate it.
Thanks!

Any option just produces the message again for approx. 3 tries then my entire system goes to Blue Screen of Death and starts dumping memory.
Just in case you're still around, bubba ...
What text and numerical codes are you getting on the blue screen? If it's mentioning a specific filename too, let us know what that is too.
For example:
STOP 0x00000023 (0x000f00b5, 0xfc4af978, 0xfc4af7b4, 0xfeff4a6b)
FATFILESYSTEM
fastfat.sys

Skype video crashes my GPU driver and causes blue screen.

Hello,
Installed a new copy of windows and got the latest version of skype for my PC (on wich skype worked just fine, video calls, voice calls, but it was an older version. No hardware changes)
With the new skype, I , for the least, get driver crashes, and for the most, a blue screen, when I just go to options to set up my webcam.As soon as I see the square "loading" my webcam in the options, everything freezes and I get a driver crash or a blue screen.
Current specs:
i5 4440, stock clocks
2x8gb 1333 ddr3 1.5v ram, stock
R7 260x, stock
500w PSU, not the best quality, But I also tried a 1000w platinum PSU, and same resaults.
last error code I remeber from the blue screen was: 0x00000116
I know it is related to the GPU, but it doesn't have power deficiency, since I manage to run heavy games just fine.By the way, my webcam works just fine on different web sites, so it's not the webcam.
What I tried:
-Degrading to the oldest supported version by skype
-Degrading video drivers
-Using different webcams
-Installed all windows 7 64 bit updates
edit:
skype 6.14 works, but newer versions crash my GPU drivers and cause blue screen

I would suggest uninstalling Droidcam as it could be the source of some delays assisting in causing the problem. TDR problems occur when your videocard is unable to respond in 2 seconds for a variety of reasons (heat, tweaks), forcefully resetting the card. Some people increase this delay in their registry from 2 to up to 10 seconds to give the card time to catch up so that a reset doesn't occur. You can try this MS fix it which increases this delay. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2665946

Schannel errors - appears to be causing blue screens

Hi guys
Every once in a while (a few times a month) our RDS server (server 200r82 hyper-v VM) decides to blue screen and restart.
Each and every time it crashes, we notice hundreds and hundreds of schannel errors appearing just before the crash (event ID 36888)
Well, it did it again this afternoon, and over the last 12 hours we noticed 1008 instances of this error, with 60 odd messages appearing within 0.2 seconds of each other, and 2 minutes before the crash.
I also noticed that just before the crash, there were a handful of services which hung seconds before the logged unexpected shutdown event. These services are as follows.
- UmRDPService
- WPDBusEnum
- UxSMS
- Audio Endpoint Builder
After the crash, it doesnt log any Schannel errors. although, saying this now and just checking again, it looks like its logged 127 instances of the same schannel error, starting from after around 2 hours of bringing the server back online.
Do these Schannel errors cause blue screens/crashes? Or is it something else I should be looking at... I'm at a loss, as there's not a lot more in the way of logs that seem to be telling me what's going on..

Hi EsDood,
Would you please let me know complete message of Event ID
36888? For Event ID 36888, it generally occur if a user tries to access a web site using HTTP but specifies an SSL port in the URL. Please check the Schannel tracing log if find relevant clues.
How to enable Schannel event logging in IIS
Please also refer to following thread and check if can help you.
Schannel
error, Event ID 36888? - IS there a way to Identify what causes Schannel to log error?
In addition, I noticed that a BSOD issue occurred on the Windows Server 2008 R2. Troubleshoot this kind of
kernel crash issue, we need to analyze the crash dump file to narrow down the root cause of the issue. Did you get any dump files? If get, please refer to
KB315263 and check if can help you.

New Mac Software update causes blue screen

Hello, I need some help...
I Updated my Macbook Pro with the reqular Mac software update (includes quicktime, itunes and a couple others) I was given the option to "shut down" or "restart"...
I clicked "shut down".
My computer then proceeded not to turn off but simply turn to a blue screen...
After some time I turned off my machine and restarted it...
It took a little longer time to start up as it usually does after a software update...
But after going through the main white screen with the apple, then moving through to the next screen that has the loading bar. that loading bar window comes up for a split second and then disappears leaving a blue screen with the cursor and then does nothing more...
I am stuck with a blue screen and a curser...
I have already tried to start up in safemode...
Any help would be much appreciated

Very astute question, for Tiger on Intel you must use the exact install disk for that Model, Gray in color for one thing.
One thing to try other than a Safe Boot...
Tough without the Install disc, but some things to try...
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Tough without the Tiger Disk problems, but try fsck...
To use fsck, you must run it from the command line. Unlike using your mouse to open an application to do something, you'll need to type a text command at the prompt (#) to tell fsck what to do. The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) and single-user mode are two examples of command-line interfaces in which you can type such commands. To use fsck:
1. Start up your computer in single-user mode to reach the command line. Hold CMD+s keys down at bootup. Note: If necessary, perform a forced restart as described in the Emergency Troubleshooting Handbook that came with your computer. On desktop computers, you can do this by pressing the reset/interrupt button (if there is one) or holding down the power button for several seconds. On portable computers, simultaneously press the Command-Control-power keys. If your portable computer doesn't restart with this method, you may need to reset the Power Manager.
2. At the command-line prompt, type /sbin/fsck -fy
(SPACE between fsck AND -fy important)
3. Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found: 
The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK  If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message: *** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***   Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
4. When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.

Recent software updates causes blue screen

I installed Leopard last week and it's been working just fine.
Last night the software update application upadted 5 apps - iTunes, Quicktime, Keychain, and a couple others I can't remember. Since the update I havn't been able to login and use my system - when it starts up it eventually stalls at a blue screen.
I've read reports of people having this issue after upgrading to Leopard, but like I said, I upgraded to Leopard just fine and have been using it for over a week.
I just discussed this with a support agent who suggested I try another archive & install - I'll post the results.
In the meantime, has anyone else run into this?
Also, would Audio Hijack's Instant Hijack (Rogue Amoeba software) and Little Snitch be considered "extensions" that might lead to this issue?

As it turns out, I had an Application enhancer I didn't even know about. I must have installed it a long time ago, tried it, lost interest, and forgot about it.
I followed the steps here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306857 and I've managed to boot and login.
Here's some more reading that may be of interest:

Desktop software causes Windows 7 to crash

I have been using Desktop Software for ages now, very successfully on the Windows XP Pro platform. I have now changed to Windows 7 Pro. Although I have downloaded and installed the latest Desktop software build, which is supposed to be Windows 7-compatible, it is certainly not on my machine.
What happens is this: When I first install the Desktop software, and start it, and use it to sync with Outlook, it works fine. Eventually of course I shut down the computer at the end of the session.
The problem occurs when I next trry to boot up. Every time I do this I get a blue screen crash long before any welcome screen appears. The blue screen doesn't last long enough for me to read what it says but the effect is clear - no boot until a repair of some sort is done. I have found that the only way to achieve a successful boot after this is to take the repair option and then the restore option to a time before installing the Blackberry Desktop software.
This has happened so many times now, with other software and hardware being installed at different times perfectly successfully. Only Blackberry Desktiop software causes these crashes. I have gone through this process at least a dozen times now, all with exactly the same effect.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on here?

ive recently run into this problem as well with windows 7 on my gf's pc. both got 9700 bold's mine worked out fine with vista, but her comppy wont boot. bout as far as i can get from school is to walk her through booting into safe mode to uninstall the bb app til i can get home lol.. kinda screwwy that i cant really find much useful information about it in the past hour or so
about the only thing that has shown up was a 'problem signature 07' screen saying badpatch.. apparently no decent error code to lookup.. help!

Desktop Software cause Bluescreen

I recently just got a new Dell Vostro V130 notebook at work and installed BB Desktop Software. I am able to connect to the BB normally, but whenever I try to use the BB to connect to internet, it will cause a blue screen. I look around and found forum saying that it is related to driver for Validity Fingerprint. However, that forum only discuss about driver for HP notebook only, therefore I'm not sure how to resolve this for my computer. (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-ZA/itproxpsp/thread/89b28983-0470-41f1-a6e4-ac6985e547... Has anyone confront with the same issue? Is there a way to resolve this, without removin the Finger scan function? This makes it really difficult for me travel around for I use to connect VPN through BB. Please help.

I can't install this driver, it says
"Authentication failed. The Dell Wireless 5540 HSPA Mobile Broadband Mini-Card cannot be installed on this computer. Please contact the Dell support for further information."
I don't think i have this card installed, therefore I can't install the driver.

Clicking on firefox icon causes blue screen crash

This began Friday, Feb. 25, about mid day. The only changes to the system that morning were an update to an Adobe plugin, either Flash player or Shockwave, I'm not sure, and an update to the Scottrade Elite desktop trading app. Both of those changes occurred about 0900. The problems began about 1130 when the system, Windows 7 Home Premium had a blue screen crash. From that time on, I have uninstalled each of the apps mentioned. I cannot open Firefox to work on the plugins becuase every time I click on the icon I get a blue screen crash with the words "Page fault in non paged area" at the top. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the Firefox app with no apparent beneficial effect. The Scottrade trading app has been reinstalled and works well, causing no further probs.

Hello mrcart,
i think it is unlikely that firefox itself is causing an operating system crash, i had some time back an similar issue where a system of a friend of mine was crashing while using IE - thats the only app he used ... the system in his case had faulty ram, and i suspect you are facing some sort of hardware problem or faulty device driver.
Please read this (also lists steps what you can do):
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc957625.aspx
(personally) I would suggest you start by checking your ram, you can do this in two ways:
Search in your Windows 7 Start Menu for "ram", you should find something like "Diagnose your computer´s memory problems"
... Or, you use the memtest86+ tool from here (e.g. download the iso, burn it and boot from the cd):
http://www.memtest.org/
Check your eventlog for errors (e.g. disk errors, timeouts, etc).
If you cannot track the problem down (i would suspect a hardware problem or faulty device driver ... e.g. it could be your video card driver doing something wrong) you should seek help at your computer manufacturer, an experienced friend, or using some forum.
kind regards,
John Kirk.

SOLUTION: Flash Video Causing Blue Screen & Lockups

Symptoms: While playing a flash video, your screen locks up; goes black; you can hear audio in the background; and/or Blue Screen of Death. The Blue Screen indicates a fault in nv4_disp.dll.
================= SOLUTION =================
Newer versions of Nvidia Drivers are causing the problem. Disabling hardware acceleration in Flash only reduces the frequency of the lockups, but does not resolve the issue.
Use this version of the Nvidia driver (but no later): 266.58
Get it here: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us
This is confirmed to resolve the problem.
Later Nvidia drivers added CUDA 4.0 (Unified Virtual Addressing (UVA) and GPUDirect™ v2.0) which is the root cause of the issue with "older" cards such as the 200 series and the 8 series.
If you have a somewhat older graphics card, there really is little need to update past version 266.58.

Wireless adapter causing blue screen

Hello,About a month ago on my Lenovo Ideapad Z580, I was using the internet when it said I was no longer connected. When I tried troubleshooting, it reset the wireless connection adapter and gave me a blue screen. When it restarted and I tried troubleshootingt it again, it enabled the adapter and worked fine. Since that first time, this BSOD has happened every day, sometimes multiple times a day, but not everytime I am on the internet. I have tried doing a system restore at a few different points, but the restore always ends in an error. I checked at the driver for the wireless adapter is up to date. Please advise on what I can do to fix this problem. Thank you,Stephanie

The symptoms you describe could be symptomatic of a variety of things to include hardware/software issues, overheating caused by a failed processor fan, bad memory (RAM), failing or underpowered power supply, CPU overheating, motherboard, video card, faulty or unsigned device drivers, CMOS battery going bad, BIOS and firmware problems, dirty hardware components, programs hanging or unresponsive in the background, and even malware. If the computer is overheating, it usually begins to shutdown/restart on a more regular basis.
If the machine is only crashing at home after establishing a connection but not at work when establishing a connection, then its probably an issue with your network configuration or something (i.e. wireless adapter) causing a conflict and not a malware issue.
The DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error is usually due to a bad driver or faulty/incompatible hardware or software. This error condition means that a kernel-mode process or driver tried to access a memory location to which it did not have permission, or at a kernel Interrupt ReQuest Level (IRQL) that was too high.

Adobe Bridge CS4 causes Blue Screen of Death! Help?

Can anyone help?
I keep getting a Blue Screen of Death every so often when I am using Adobe Bridge CS4 and another program, either Photoshop or Bryce or Cinema4D.
When I have been working in the other program for a while and attempt to return to Bridge, the instant I click on the bridge icon in the low taskbar, the PC blue screens and everything dies instantly with no time to read the blue screen or to take a photo of it, never mind do anything useful like save the file I was working on.
I have winXP Pro and an NVidia Ge Force 8800 GTS graphics card. (both are up to date)
I recently got the Adobe updates but there wasn't one for Bridge.
Buckets full of memory: 289GB free on the C drive and I store most (work) things on my F drive which is a terrabyte with 315 gigs free.
Um.... dunno what else to say.
Except: HELP!!!

Well, I don't find that the magnifying glass ability is all that much help to me as often what you see in that magnified area is too blurry to be of any use - my eyes aren't wonderful with small things (including small text - I therefore have the text on all the machines I use set to quite large, browser included) so I like large thumbnails too, and usually I find that the big thumbnails are sufficient for me to find what I want.
So that's not been the cause of my BSOD.
By the way what's "ralentize"? Is it like "pixilate"?
On the BSOD - it sounds to me that there can be more than one cause in Bridge of the BSOD, so it sounds as if Bridge CS4 - is just not stable, period.
The fact that Bridge in CS3 and CS2 worked just fine is a good indicator of this, (to me anyway) as most people seem to be saying so.
I wouldn't like to rely on NVidia's next update fixing this, as I've already updated NVidia once since this began and it didn't help, I now hear that there's now another update out for the NVidia Ge Force 8800 GTS (which is what I have in my PC), so I will be updating that when I get back, but as the last update didn't fix it, I doubt if this one will either, I think it's something that Adobe will have to sort out, but I doubt if they will.
So it looks like those of us with that graphics card are just left without being able to use Bridge properly - if at all.
I've given up on it on my PC and so I'm refusing to use it on my Laptop either, since it would be silly to get so used to it that I can't work without it.
I have tried using Irfanview, but it's functionalitly is comparably limited. So I'm looking out for something else.
I don't at the moment have PhotoshopCS4 on the laptop and as I left the box with the program in it in my room at Uni I can't install it on the laptop with its different Graphics card (although still an NVidia it's a Ge Force Go 6800, not the 8800 Gts), until I get back next week... not that I really want to, if it's just going to crash the laptop like it does the PC.
I do have Corel's Paintshop Pro Photo X2 on here, but I don't use it anything like as much as I do Photoshop, but at least the Bridge or Browser (they call it "Organiser") on that doesn't kill the entire computer, although it does take up room on the screen instead of opening as a whole new window.
Also PaintShopPro does not save an inferior version of the image when saving as BMP, which I've noticed does now happen with Photoshop CS4 (when comparing .psd or pspimage with bmp).
emirkill,
I will also try the "enable software rendering" when I get back, that you've used, in case that helps.

Skype causes Blue Screen of Death after a while in...

Hello, I'm currently having a problem with my skype where it will cause my computer to BSOD after a while in a call, it's only happening during skype calls, not during other voice communication programs like steam's voice calling and the blue screen is more likely to happen when I'm running Firefox.
The Blue screen error I get is "Clock Interrupt was not receieved on a secondary processor within the alloted time interval."
Any help would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The issue might be triggered by Skype and other software but definitely not due to Skype. It's a very broad multiple CPU timing's issue that can be caused by several things.
1. Problematic BIOS settings
2. Failing hardware/drivers
3. CPU/Fan/HW monitor control programs
4. Power management settings
As a temporary workaround you can try setting the processor affinity for Skype or set your Windows to boot off only 1 CPU using msconfig.
