Games primarily, whether it be Heroes of the Storm or Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour.  I usually get a blue screen with MEMORY_MANAGEMENT or something memory related.  The games crash somewhat regularly too.

May be unrelated, but my plug n play Earforce 11 headphones are no longer being recognized by the machine since running all these scans?

 

Thank you again for your assistance.

I`m not sure that any scans we`ve ran would affect the headphones, do you have software to reinstall the driver..?

Regarding the video card, i`d recommend you go to the manufacturers website and check for a driver update... if the crashes continue the card will need checking to make sure is not faulty...

How is your PC responding in general since malware has been removed, any issues or concerns...?

Thank you,

Kevin

The headphones don't have drivers, it used to just 'auto detect' when I would plug something into the headphone or microphone port and ask me what type of device it was.  I would click a check box for "headphones" and "microphone" and then it would turn on.  Now nothing happens when I plug it into the ports.

 

Thus far everything appears to be in working order.  I will update the Nvidia drivers and report back if any other issues are detected.  Thank you very much for your help up until this point it is greatly appreciated.

This is what I did:

 

I ran scannow twice, which fixed the headphones problem but the PC started crashing again.  I updated the video card drivers, ran it again and it crashed once more.  I rebooted and ran it and secured the log, attached.

 

When it crashed the last time it said NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM (Ntfs.sys)
