Ever since I upgraded from version 7 to version 8 I keep getting BSOD. I went through the removal procedure of Norton (this computer cam originally with Norton) and removed AVAST 8 and reinstalled the new version that came out a few days ago but I keep getting these BSOD. I have Windows 7. Please help.
I’ve got two BSODs and did an installation from scratch to solve.
- Download the latest version of avast! Uninstall Utility and save it.
- Download the latest avast! version and save it.
- (Optional) If you want, save your avast! settings for later restoration (Settings > Maintenance > Back up).
- Uninstall avast from Control Panel (if possible). If, for any reason, you can’t run it, try booting in Safe Mode and doing it from there. Anyway, boot after that.
- Run the avast! Uninstall Utility saved on 1 in Safe Mode. Boot after you’ve run it. Repeat this for any major avast! version you have ever installed/upgraded in your computer.
- Install avast! using the setup saved on 2. Boot.
- Register your free copy or add the license key for Pro. Or even upgrade your key from old versions.
- Check and post the results. If, for any reason, you did not solve, try doing the step 3 in Safe Mode anyway.
Please, be patient, boot when it’s said to boot…
