Reload into safe mode, same deal after anywhere from 2-5 minutes.ĭid a bit of researching and a bunch of sites indicate this might be a driver corruption issue, and suggest that I should systematically disable devices until I pinpoint which one is causing the problem and update the associated driver. Everything seemed to go fine so I rebooted afterwards and started up the process again but sure enough, about 5 minutes into the scan again, BSOD struck.

Working on a friends bogged down laptop, was going through the usual steps in the "preliminary removal instructions" and I got a BSOD while trying to do the online Trend Micro scan.Īnnoyed, I rebooted and loaded up in safe mode, noticed there was still one stubborn one loading even in safe mode (Virus Heat) so I jumped the gun a bit and ran SmitFraudFix to get rid of the little bugger.
