Lenovo G580 BSOD problems with certain applications

Hi everyone,
Not sure if I'm posting this to the right place so please feel free to redirect me if this doesn't belong here. Purchased a new lenovoG580 a couple of weeks ago and ever since I've been occassionally getting blue screens, followed by reboot. I  firstly noticed that thisonly occurs when using Dropbox so I thought it was a dropbox issue. But after doing a bit of digging around I relaise it's not. (I also later noticed that it happens when I am using bittorrent as well). Each time I run either of these programmes the system crashes and i get the dreaded BSOD. I posted about this initially on the dropbox forum but I've been advised that it is indeed a Lenovo issue and I need to contact them. I'm including the link from the dropbox website to give a bit more background information on the issue 
https://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=62093
Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Linda

Ok so I uninstalled Webroot and opened bittorrent and downloaded for about 1 hour and no BSOD. All looking good. Then i downloaded dropbox and began syncing. After about 3 minutes of syncing it crashed I've linked the mini dump file
http://www.sendspace.com/file/hupetx
So it looks like removing the antivirus worked for bittorrent but not dropbox. Any other suggestions?
Also, probably a stupid question, but does this mean I cannot use an antivirus software if I want to download torrents?
Again, thank you for the help.
Greatly appreciated,
Linda

  • Lenovo G580 Blue Screen With Dropbox

    Dear Lenovo community, 
    I bought a new Lenovo G580 last week, but dropbox causes the system to crash (Blue Screen).
    Windows gives the following error codes:
    ffff8a00b9ffa0a
    000000000000
    ffff80003092be1
    000000000000
    I found a previous post on this forum with the problem (http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-3000-and-Essential/Lenovo-G580-BSOD-problems-with-certain-applica... but there was no solution back then. 
    Any Ideas on how to solve this?
    Kind Regards

    Not sure if this helps, but I did a memtest with this program:
    http://hcidesign.com/memtest/download.html
    And it claims "Could not allocate 4095 MB".
    This would imply mij memory chips are failing right? So this is a hardware problem?

  • N95 problem with ''Help'' application

    Dear all,
    I've update recently my N95 with new software release 20.0.015, but the problem with help application is not resolved...The problem is the following: when I try to open HELP I receive the error message MEMORY FULL, but my free RAM is 23/24 MB and the free memory on the device is 112 MB. Can you help me to resolve this problem?
    Thanks

    I have the same problem - no in any applications or using the Help application itself.
    Of possible interest ?>: is a 'help folder' I have with a name displayed in the Help application as 4x boxes.
    Using: -Menu -Tools -Utilities -Help
    ...I have an odd looking file listed at the end (after 'ZipManager' & before '3-D ringing tones'). The name is displaying as 4 x boxes - presumably non display characters ?>
    Is this folder on all N95s ? (i.e even those with a working Help) ?
    Anyone know how/where to locate this folder ?

  • I have problems with installed applications

    I have problems with installed applications, I used to work correctly, but yesterday it just stopped working all run which came by default. could tell me I have to do to eliminate this problem?

    Try downloading another app - any free app is fine. See if that resets the other apps and allows them to work again.

  • I'm having problems with JavaFX applications run on raspberry pi!

    I'm having problems with JavaFX applications run on raspberry pi. I did all the steps of the videos of the course: overclocking, uncommented what I had to uncomment about the framebuffer but Exceptions are still happening. The Fireworks demo example does not work. Someone went through this problem? Java applications are ok. As the versions of java in netbeans project and also on "properties" and they are all JDK 8. So if someone can give a hint, I'm very grateful!

    Can you provide the exceptions you got so I can help you better?
    Would you like to do a coaching session for this?

    Hi, 
    I'm getting the following message 
    "your device encountered a problem with this application's server" when I try to add an email in Email settings. This problem is occurring since 15-NOV-2010. I'm using O2 service provider. i've called them and reported this problem. O2 service provider did all possible troubleshooting and they adviced everything is ok on their side. They don't know why am I getting this message.

    I have problems with certain applicaitons not sync'ing (like email, cal, notes)...need help

    There are a few twists here. This is my opinion of a quick and easy way to do what you want to do.
    Get a 2.5" sata enclosure like this one - this is just a sample:
    http://www.amazon.ca/eForCity-2-5-inch-SATA-Enclosure-Blue/dp/B0083OOV9G/ref=sr_ 1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1360012807&sr=8-1
    Put the new ssd in the enclosure, connect it to the Mac using the included USB cable. It is now an external drive.
    Format the drive using Disk Utility.
    Download and run Carbon Copy cloner, and clone your drive to the new external.
    Shutdown. Open the MBP and remove the SSD drive from the enclosure and put it in the place of the old drive.
    Boot the MBP. Once you know the new drive is up and running, you can get to the process of installing the old one in the optical bay.

  • Problems with EJB Application with many CMP's

    I had been working with a Sun engineer in reference to a major problem with a large CMP Module with over 120 cmp beans with many relationships. It was filed as a bug and just recently they released Update 2. I installed this update and now I can build our complete application in Sun 1 Studio 5. Now, there seems to still be a problem in the application module. If we create the application and add our session module, cmp module and web module there is not problems. I can create the ear file and deploy this to S1AS7. Now if I exit the IDE the next time I return the Application shows that there is a error (red error indicator). I cannot expand the application to see the modules. The same problem was in S1S4 but it was not that big of a deal as it allowed you to add the modules back in, save and export the ear. But, now in S1S5 you cannot do a single thing with this module. Even the menu items to delete are not available. The only thing we can to is create the application again and add the modules etc. Also, if I right click on the application and select view error information it does nothing so I cannot even see the error that is causing this trouble. Also, we know it is something with the application and the cmp module because we can add just the web moduel and session module, save, exit and return and the application is fine. It is only when we add in the cmp module that after saving and returning things are wacked.
    Has anyone else seen this problem with the application?

    I have found the error. In the ide log it showed that the entity expansion limit was reached for the DOM parser. I added this to my ide.cfg and all works well now.
    -J-DentityExpansionLimit=128000
    Apperently the limit is 64000 and with the very large modules it was just not enough.

  • Lenovo G530 - problem with certain keys on keyboard

    hi everyone.
    I have a Lenovo G530 and I am having an odd problem with the keyboard.  If i press the spacebar when I type anything, i get the system date and time.  If I press the H button, I get a hn and i get nh when I press the N key.  Also get gb when I press G and bg when I press B.  The rest of the keys are fine.  Any ideas what could help???
    I has this problem about a month ago and I remember reading somewhere on the net that if I press Alt-Crt-Del and some other key, it shoudl work... and it must have cause the problem stopped.  But now it's back and I can't find that combination again.
    I have Windows Vista installed.
    Thanks!!! 

    Hello,
    I doubt it's a hardware problem at all. I believe it's a "fun" program running on your machine that does this. Someone put it there for you.
    A sure way to make sure what it is....... connect a USB keyboard to your laptop. If that USB keyboard is doing the same thing then it's software related, if not, then it's hardware related.
    If it is infact a funware there or a virus you'd have to go to a malware forum and ask around. If it turns out to be malware try Spybot Search & Destroy.

  • Problems with multiple applications crashing or not opening.

    My computer has issues with multiple applications, which mostly are connected to itunes/ilife. iPhoto, iWeb, Front Row and iTunes all crash at certain points, but iMovie opens fine, although I haven't tested anything within it other than playback. YouControlTunes (an iTunes controller) also has issues. Reinstalling the OS has made no difference, nor has reinstalling iTunes. I will try reinstalling iLife (again).
    iTunes did work after reinstalling the OS the first time after trashing iTunes and iLife and other applications that used up hard drive space (was running low so wanted to make sure Mac OS X installed fine), but after reinstalling iLife and Firefox and other applications then iTunes stopped working again. Garageband and iDVD weren't reinstalled.
    I shall try trashing the iTunes library.
    Also, the application Mactracker and the installers for 1.0.4 & 1.0.5 of Age of Empires III did not work, so the problem is presumably not iLife.

    There are some simple troubleshooting steps you can take.
    Be sure you drive is not overly full. Rule of thumb would be over 85%.
    Create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the apps in this new account, if they work the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
    If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
    If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
    Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
    If the issue is systemwide then, you may be able to repair this with the The 10.6.3 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
    Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.

  • Screen corruption with certain applications

    My ArchLinux install has been fine for ages, so I think my ATI card is configured correctly. However, a few days ago I noticed that when I open certain applications (mainly Picasa via Wine and OpenOffice file dialogs), my entire screen becomes corrupted.
    It looks like the screen gets divided into 4 or 5 horizontal areas and when I move the mouse pointer or windows, they appear to scroll across these areas in a staggered manner.
    I do recall installing Google Chrome (not Chromium) from AUR and I believe it installed a different version of "libjpeg" and "libpng" from source, so maybe this has something to do with it.
    Also, when using Nautlius, I get a serious X panic (sometimes kernel panic) saying that "Nautilus is tainted".
    I've tried removing these "libjpeg" and "libpng" libraries and have even reinstalled X, Gnome etc. using pacman, however, the problem still occurs.
    I can recover by dropping to a virtual console and then restarting X with "/etc/rc.d/gdm restart", but obviously this isn't sustainable.
    What do you recommend? If I can't find a solution, I might reinstall the box but will probably go back to Debian.
    Thanks in advance!

    This appears to be exactly my problem. I will try the suggested fix when I get home from work this evening.
    Thanks for the speedy response. Yet another reason to love Arch Linux and its community!
    Cheers!
