"True Bug Flavoring Essence"
Ingredients: Artificial True Bug Flavor."

It's what's for dinner.

AV + SMB = Windows 7 BSOD (tdx.sys)


It seems to be rooted in network share access - AV scans in particular.


I have a Maxtor 500g NAS that is mapped to my P: drive and asked Google Desktop to index it, and that also triggered the BSOD. Since removing the AVG Free 8.0, I can move files all over the network, and find them in the Google desktop search with out the BSOD.


Here's a few good links:



The last URL (overclockers.com) has (as of this comment) 3 pages of posts that ties this issue to both network maps and AV software (Avira, AVG, nod32, etc) being the common denominator.
Good luck and g0d speed.

doPDF + Windows 7 = BSOD?


OK - I am loving my Windows 7 Beta, and am running into the little glitches:

1) .msi installer issue

2) synergy from sourceforge.net doesn't play well

3) my hp photosmart 7550 is only recognized as an hp deskjet 5550

4) occasion Logitech webcam pro software for portables dies

5) AVG free sometimes can't see the internet

6) etc...


However, the biggie is the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH created by doPDF. The application installs fine, but when you attempt to create a PDF, it wont save anywhere, likely due to application permissions. Then, I started to get the BSOD regularly. After uninstalling it, the bsod stopped happening.


Just posting this here so someone else knows about it. more to come...
