Hey all,
Just started having BSOD upon bootup yesterday. No coincidence that i'd just installed Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 i think. Having said that i have Kaspersky on 3 other systems and no problems. I can boot up in Safe Mode no problem but CANNOT boot up in Safe Mode with Networking which suggests Kaspersky as it might try and load Kaspersky drivers? Ive tried disabling kaspersky to load on system startup in settings and also disabled the kaspersky startup service in msconfig but no deal. Ive also tried disabling the onboard LAN controller without luck. All usb/firewire peripherals have been disconnected ( i use the computer for music so have many usb/firewire devices) yet ive not had any problems with any of these. I want to uninstall Kaspersky to see if that helps but unfortunately it will not let me uninstall in safe mode. It always says that windows Installer 3.1 cannot be found because its in safe mode, however, i dont have a problem uninstalling any other program in safe mode. How can i get rid of Kaspersky? And where else should i look for solving this problem. Please help!
Thanks
BTW, no idea if it helps but the BSOD error code is:
0x0000000A 0x0000004C 0x00000002 0x00000001 0x806E484A
Basic system specs:
Windows XP Pro (SP2)
Intel Xeon X3220
Intel D975XBX2 Extreme
2GB RAM
