    Hello,

    I recently downloaded a game called "Enlisted" by company called Gaijin, however since then I've been experiencing random crashes, freezes and bsods. I suspect it has something to do with the game because i keep getting "trojan blocked" messages from my anti virus (MBAM) about enlisted.exe

    I've already uninstalled the game, and would like to check if there is any malware on my pc.

    Not seeing any malware in your logs. Two questions:
    Where did you download it from?
    Did you check your system to see if you had the resources to run it?

    Hi Tim,

    I downloaded it from their official website. Could this then be a hardware issue?

    My system does meet the requirements to play the game.

    *Edit*
    Now that I think about it, I did have a slightly under powerd psu, but I've already upgraded it since.

    Did all the symptoms stop once you removed the game? If not, then yes, you might wish to post in the hardware forum.

    The freezes and bsods seems to have beeen stopped but I was having this issue where the pc would have trouble coming back on after a crash.

    Sometimes after a freeze the only thing I could do it hold down the power to shut it down and restart it, but this thing would happen where the power light would come on and I would hear the fans start up but nothing would ever show up on screen, even if I leave it for hours.

    Even after a bsod where it says its "collecting info and will restart shortly" but it never does anything I left it overnight once and no progress was made so I just manually turn it off and put it back on, the same thing would happen.

    Or sometimes it just cuts off and the same issue would happen when I try to put it back on. (this is one made me start to think maybe it was the psu)

    The bsods and freezes seems to have stopped after I removed the game but I was still having startup issues hence why I upgraded the psu. When I finally installed the new psu, it was having a bit of trouble starting up also so I wasn't sure if that was the culprit, but once I finally got it running, I haven't seen the issue since. But its only been a couple days now so I'm not truly sure if everything is fine.

    I posted in the malware forum because of all the trojan blocked messages and bsods/freezes.

    Well, it isn't a malware issue that I can see, so your best bet would be to post in the hardware forum.

    No, you need to start a fresh on in the Hardware forum. Moving this thread would just be confusing.

    Well thank you for your time good sir, should I go ahead and delete all the tools then?

    Yes. you can delete the tools, unless you want to keep then for spot checks.
