    G'day

    I recently upgraded my laptop OS from vista to 7 (using the clean install option) and have been encountering blue screen of deaths during SOME shutdowns, so it doesnt happen every shutdown.

    I initially thought it was related to the card reader driver not installing properly, but i fixed that and the blue screen's continued. All other hardware drivers are installed correctly and functioning fine as far as i know.

    The error message is as follows:

    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
    OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
    Locale ID: 3081

    Additional information about the problem:
    BCCode: 124
    BCP1: 00000000
    BCP2: 863B4024
    BCP3: B2000000
    BCP4: 00000115
    OS Version: 6_1_7600
    Service Pack: 0_0
    Product: 256_1

    I had no such problems with vista prior to the upgrade. Any help would be appreciated.

    His response seemed fairly drawn out and my original post wasnt very informative.

    Just seeing if a different forum had any other input on my problem.

    It looks to be a hardware issue from that responce. possibly video drivers, have you updated any drivers particularly video?

    Also we to know alt more. system specifics will help and also what are you doingat the time of the BSOD as in is there a specific program or program set you run before the error?

    I just hit the shutdown button (or restart) and the computer will either proceed normally and shutown without the bsod or it wont even reach the shut down screen and the bsod will appear. It seems to be fine in safe mode ie no bsod's.

    Its a but of a pain because it doesnt happen every shutdown.

    I have updated the drivers for the video card trying to fix this problem but without any seeming effect.

    The only major change in hardware or software is the upgrade from vista to 7.

    ps specs are:

    thinkpad r61
    t7500 2.2ghz
    nvidia quadro nvs 140m
    2gb ram
    160gb hdd
    windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

    dunno if that helps at all.

    Is that safe mode with networking? if networking enabled most of your drivers are loaded except the video and possibly the HDD. Video drivers are one of the first to unmount, before that I think USB devices. do you overclock the video?
