BSOD with recent update
« on: July 24, 2022, 07:34:04 PM »
An update to the antivirus engine pushed early this week (around 6-7 days ago) has almost surely been causing BSOD issues.

Refer to this thread for more information https://www.computerbase.de/forum/threads/brauch-bitte-help-hab-ich-einen-virus.2094705/

It happens with both AVG and Avast users, it causes crashes with well-known good .sys drivers such as RivaTuner's RTCore64.sys and CPU-Z and GPU-Z low-level drivers.

I have had to uninstall the antivirus because my PC would crash every 10 minutes randomly.

Justinkb thank you for reporting. Could you please update your Avast AV to latest version (VPS 220726-00 from today morning) and let us know whether those BSODs stop happening.
