Default 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?

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