Malwarebytes self-start problem

<< < (7/11) > >>

bit:
On the comic relief side, if price is no object and you -really- want to speed up your hard drive....  ;D
HyperOs solid state flash drive
((click at top horizontal menu on 'hardware'))...
....the HyperOs HyperDrive 5 with 8 ram stick slots...

quote...
175MB/s Sustained Read rate.
145MB/s Sustained Write rate.
65,000 IOPS. Hard disks do 200-300 IOPS (File Inputs or Outputs Per Second).
10 microsecond disk access time. Mechanical disks take 5-15 milliseconds.
It finds files 500x faster than the world's fastest mechanical SAS hard disk.
No drivers needed, connects like any other SATA HDD.
Boots Windows XP in 4 seconds

bit:
I just got another BSOD, this time on my newer Western Digital 250GB 10K rpm drive....and I wasn't even watching any online vids.
I was just switching views between browsers and Desktop.
My Win7Pro is the first OS I ever had that consistently self-recovers and reboots successfully to Desktop.......if I run CCleaner and then 'create restore point' faithfully after every BSOD.
And lately I've been getting them almost on a daily basis.
Seems like these BSODs started sometime about when I began running MalwareBytes, or when I switched to a slightly newer video card....not sure exactly.
I have a whole collection of bootable recovery 'wizard' disks for earlier OSs such as WinXP, Win98, Win95, that -never- worked....
....which is why I keep multiple HDs unplugged with backup copies of the OS.

Cuffy:
Sounds like you have a plausible reason and the test is simple.
Remove malwarebytes and replace it with Superantispyware..........

http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html

I think it was Gizmo that ran comparison tests between these two products and determined that Superantispyware was more effective.

They're both free........... woin't hoit to try! :D

video card seems the more likely culprit -
but it is easier to replace mwb and see how it goes.
