    Hi guys,

    First, thanks to all that help out!

    My system has experience a BSOD 3 times in the last week. Upon my last restart I sent my error report to Microsoft and the "solution" stated that I may have a spooldr.sys virus. I have run through the Read & Run and found nothing, however, I haven't experienced the issue since. I also haven't been able to recreate it.

    My question is: Is this just a general error statement from MS for the BSOD? Could it be that I just have a hardware failure? My pc is nearly 4 years old and it is quite possible that its "on its way out". I just want to see if this statement is just precautionary statement for BSOD's and its possible that I don't have a virus at all!

    Thanks!

    I do not know for sure, if you attach the requested logs after going through the R&R which you said you had done then I can check to see if there are any problems.
