    Windows 7 will shut down randomly and give me this error message in blue screen, disk compilation.... Any ideas of why it's doing this?....

    I would try to:

    . get another copy of the W7

    . disable all 3rd party Firewall and AV before upgrading.

    cheers ...

    I have Trend Micro which is compatible... I uninstalled it after I had installed windows 7... The antivirus compatibility warning still keeps popping up however... So I think there may still be remnants of it in my system
