Hi Shane,

I was hoping you could outline a strategy along with the tools that you use, as you mentioned, to clean the computer first before using Tweaking.com's tool.

It would mean a lot, as I think I'm using some tool that are either unneeded or redundant.  I need to streamline this process because, like I mentioned, this has all been delegated to me after some downsizing.

I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Paul

Hirens boot disc has a program called Blue Screen View which will tell you what caused the error screen.

Seems like the same solution Shane suggested.  Matter of taste, I guess.

General Computer Support / Looking for a solution to keep a computer active for a length of time

I'm troubleshooting a user's computer.  BSOD, used Blue Screen View to see the ntoskrnl.exe was causing it, which 99% of the time means the BIOS needs a good update.  Which was right there at the manufacturer's website waiting to be installed.

With blue screens, though, it's tough to tell if it's been fixed.  I want the machine to run overnight and "be active".

While not necessarily looking for a stress test, is there anything like this folks use in the cleaning world?

Thanks!

I've heard tdsskiller mentioned a few times while I was watching/talking to the T1 guys.  I played with it a few times, what am I looking for in its results?

After a recent loss of a large portion of our IT, a lot of the computer cleaning has been given to me.  I've usually taken my time, running an antivirus, then using your solution to (I think) remove common registry entry points for malware.

However, I'd like to know for sure if this is, in fact, what your solution does.

Let's say a browser redirect or something has been removed, I would check in HKey_Currenet_User > Software &
HKey_Local_Machine > Software to ensure their entries have been removed.

If it doesn't (and believe me your program does an awesome amount of work anyway!) does anyone know a good list of registry points I would go and delete by hand?
