  • Suddenly BSOD crashes on programs such as outlook 2007 (yes, even in safe mode), word 2007, photoshop & illustrator (if attempting to do anything font related)
  • Crashes when attempting to open fonts folder
  • Have gotten Bad Pool Header, System Service Exception and Page Fault In Non Page Area BSOD - The computer refuses to write a memdump, and I have checked to make sure that it's supposed to
  • Have run sfc /scannow, Chkdsk, startup repair, safe mode, system checks of all nature and nothing's coming back with any error. Also temporarily turned off everything in msconfig startup menu - still crashed.
  • Did a restore but problem exists
Trying to find if there's a solution before reinstalling everything
Thanks!
 
Solution


I uninstalled The Cisco stuff.

I looked into the BIOS and didn't anything regarding Optimized Defaults, so hit F5 Load Setup Defaults. I think the CPU-Z listing is still the same now as the previous one - but - my computer is working now!!!!!!!!!

I sincerely appreciate the help I've gotten here today!
And as a side note, when you finally discover that your cd/dvd drive does not work any longer, please let us know. It's very easy to fix.
 
regarding cd/dvd:
yup, sure enough - you're right! I've had this problem before and did the UpperFilters and LowerFilters thing so it's working

Thanks!
 
Regarding BIOS, it's a HP Pavilion Elite e9180t which seemingly has a limited BIOS from what I can see. But I'm sure I could be missing something obvious.
