ANd source is Microsoft Antimalware
At these times I think I was asleep and letting the Microsoft Update system download all the updates. Though if i knew where i could find the restore points (i created a restore point for every new installation and a name for what i installed), then i could pinpoint it more precisely. EDIT: It could have also been the MSE downloading updates.
I've attached the minidump.
It seems like we've gone full circle again and started from the very beginning.
Thanks for your continuing support.
By the way, I'm starting postgraduate college next week (though I'm not leaving home) and I'm hoping to have everything resolved before then otherwise progress trying to fix this thing might be very slow as I have assessments and a workload pretty much straight up. Hopefully some ultimatum can be reached by the end of this week
. But if not, then I'll keep trying to get this thing updated but it will be slow. Maybe i should just get a new computer setup??
EDIT: just quickly, i remember the hardware guy (when he assembled my computer) say that one of the RAM sticks he was using was slightly different. does that matter by any chance?
