I have uninstalled Mcafee because I couldnt disable two of its services. Whats SPTD layer? I will test on Alcohol too. I was just wondering how do these apps run flawlessly on my other computer with win xp and so miserably on Vista n 7. Should I go back to win xp? I am updating the Skydrive too. Thanks.
Blue Screen error in Windows 7, only able to use computer in Safe Mode with networking
Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) is apperaing in WIN 7 too. I can only use my computer in Safe Mode with Networking. I have several minidump files but how do I use them with WinDbg utility. Also how do I load and verify the symbols. Does anyone have Microsoft support 1800 number? Thanks.

2010-06-01T23:45:08+00:00 There is some information on SPTD in the following link:
http://www.duplexsecure.com/faq/
It basically helps Alcohol or similar application work better.
Please be aware that if you do uninstall Alcohol it will not uninstall SPTD. To uninstall SPTD see "How can I remove SPTD driver on 64-bit OS?" in the above link.
I don't believe you should have to go back to XP. It may just be getting the right drivers or combination of drivers the work with Windows 7 64-bit.
If after uninstalling you get any more BSODs please provide the minidump files.

However you could hold off and see if any more BSODs occur with McAfee uninstalled.
