This has occurred 30+ times since February 21, 2012. Microsoft Diagnostic and Recovery Tool utility along with Microsoft Debug tools points at aswSnx.sys as a problem that may be causing the crash.

Will Avast 6 File Server Security function without this driver? If so, How can it be disabled or repaired?

Hi,
the BSOD occuring casually or when you try to open a specific application or when server do a specific operation?
The aswSnx.sys driver is needed to virtualize an application (autosanbox or safezone..) I suggest you to try to disable the autosandbox and look if the problem is still.
Another solution is to try to make an avast repair installation, and I suggest you to send the minidump in a zip file with a txt file to the link to this topic to devs to
