repeated bluescreen in vista
I on a dell inspirion 1501 and have the network adapters from broadcom and
dell wireless installed. Recently I installed a PC Tools firewall. When I uninstalled it, i restarted the PC and before windows boots up, it throughs up a bluescreen( with white random lines). I tried uninstalling the network adapters but whenever it is reinstalled, windows gets again into another bluescreen. Now none of my network adapters work. I suspect this is might be due to a PC Tools driver. I can't see them in the deivce manager. But maybe it is trying to get installed with the net adapter failing to which it throughs a bluescreen. |

Have you tried using System Restore to roll back to a point before you
installed the firewall software? -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * NEW!

No I don't have a restore point before I installed the firewall software.
