I connected a USB Western Digital 100GB drive and started transferring some files and my pc BSOD on me. I checked the dump it said probably cause by aswMon2.SYS. I also have the mini dump but I cant post it here.
I’m quite sure that if you search the board for aswMon2.sys you’ll find something related…
Anyway, any other antivirus installed in your computer? Other security program?
Are you using a fully updated XP computer?

Please check the folder \data\log
Are there any files called unpXXXX there (where XXXX is a random number)?
If so, send them to vlk@avast.com
They may contain more information about the problem (maybe a link to this thread).
Had 3, zipped them up and email them to the address you provided. Thanks for the help
The unpXXX files are of no use for BLUESCREEN (system crash) type problems (they’re useful only for the analysis avast application crashes).
What I’d need is the contents of the folder \windows\minidump (there should be exactly one file for each crash that occured; send me the most recent one).
Thanks
Vlk
