Hi

Will the nVidia firewall be installed on the PC with an nVidia driver installation? If so... Where can I find it? How do I turn it off?

I had recently been experiencing Bluescreen(BSOD) frequently and was told that it's due to the firewall conflicting by several people.

Hence, I want to turn off the nVidia firewall to see if it's due to the conflicting between it and Kaspersky.

I will be really appreciated if you can help me out of this.

Thanks!

Hi

My m/b is Asus instead of nVidia, so it shouldn't be the nVidia firewall's problem.

In addition, there's no exclusion that the "Bitcomet" was always on when the BSOD happened.

Could it be due to the compatibility of "Bitcomet"? There are heaps of peoples with Bitcomet installed experiencing the same problem.

Do any one of you have Bitcomet installed having BSOD problem as well?

BTW, I was away for showering. Sorry for the late response when you guys were trying to help me out.

3:49 am in NZ now... so I am going to sleep. Hope that I will get the solution from someone when I get up tomorrow morning.

Thanks again.

Is WindowsDefender also a kind of firewall?

Could the BSOD occurred be due to the WindowsDefender conflicting with my Kaspersky?

WindowsDefender is anti-spware and should not conflict with kaspersky, is your MS windows firewall on? Do you have an old fire-wall that was not un-installed prior to kaspersky?

My windows firewall is off and the Kaspersky is only firewall that has been installed on my PC.
