Yes try the full test now as the chkdisc failure is a concern

Hmmmm.
Passed the extended test too.
Very strange...
Do you have any idea why a lot of my files and folders have a bronze padlock on them since I reset the default access and ownership settings?

My computer just crashed and blue screened.
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
Locale ID: 2057
Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: 116
BCP1: FFFFFA800555C4E0
BCP2: FFFFF88004A206A0
BCP3: 0000000000000000
BCP4: 0000000000000002
OS Version: 6_1_7600
Service Pack: 0_0
Product: 256_1
Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Windows\Minidump\081013-46441-01.dmp
C:\Windows\Temp\WER-92321-0.sysdata.xml
I wrote down all the stuff of the screen but I guess this information is sufficient? Any idea what happened? Does kind of seem like a hard drive issue. But nothing came up on the test. I'm glad I have someone with your kind of experience on my side here or I'd be completely lost.

Could you check in C:\Windows\minidump
Once there could you upload the latest one to a file sharing site like mediafire for me to collect and analyse

This too is the only one in the Minidump folder that has a padlock icon.

That is indicating a time out problem on your GPU now
I feel at this stage you would probably be better either repairing windows or installing SP1 to see if that cures it, there is a problem with windows itself

So you think the GPU timeout is just a side affect?
Well like I said I tried to repair windows before but it didn't seem to work. I might try installing SP1. Do you think the problem with windows is caused by a virus?
Thanks so much for all your help.

No this appears to be a windows related problem, I can see no signs of malware
