Fix BSOD Error Codes- The easiest way.

BlueScreenView scans all your minidump files created during 'blue screen of death' crashes, and displays the information about all crashes in one table. For each crash, BlueScreenView displays the minidump filename, the date/time of the crash, the basic crash information displayed in the blue screen (Bug Check Code and 4 parameters), and the details of the driver or module that possibly caused the crash (filename, product name, file description, and file version). 
For each crash displayed in the upper pane, you can view the details of the device drivers loaded during the crash in the lower pane. BlueScreenView also mark the drivers that their addresses found in the crash stack, so you can easily locate the suspected drivers that possibly caused the crash.

System Requirements

• BlueScreenView works with Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, as long as Windows is configured to save minidump files during BSOD crashes. If your system doesn't create MiniDump files on a blue screen crash, try to configure it according to the following article: How to configure Windows to create MiniDump files on BSOD
• BlueScreenView can read the MiniDump files of both 32-bit and x64 systems.

BlueScreenView Features

• Automatically scans your current minidump folder and displays the list of all crash dumps, including crash dump date/time and crash details.
• Allows you to view a blue screen which is very similar to the one that Windows displayed during the crash.
• BlueScreenView enumerates the memory addresses inside the stack of the crash, and find all drivers/modules that might be involved in the crash.
• BlueScreenView also allows you to work with another instance of Windows, simply by choosing the right minidump folder (In Advanced Options).
• BlueScreenView automatically locate the drivers appeared in the crash dump, and extract their version resource information, including product name, file version, company, and file description.

Affected Operating Systems: Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7

Description
Your McAfee Real-Time Scanning service stops functioning unexpectedly and your protection status changes to Red. An error similar to the one below will be displayed in McAfee SecurityCenter:




Solution
Perform each of the steps below to enable Real-Time Scanning in the SecurityCenter.

If Real-Time Scanning will not start or becomes disabled again, continue to the next step.


Step 1 - Enable Real-Time Scanning in McAfee SecurityCenter

1. Double-click the M icon in your taskbar. 
2. Click Navigation and select the Real-Time Scanning link.
3. Click Turn On.
   
   NOTE: The Turn On button will be available only when Real-Time Scanning is off.
    
4. Return to the main SecurityCenter page and verify that Real-Time Scanning remains on.
5. Close McAfee SecurityCenter.

If your status still shows that you are unprotected, continue to Step 2.


Step 2 - Run McAfee Virtual Technician (MVT)

McAfee Virtual Technician (MVT) is an automated self-healing tool that can diagnose and fix many problems related to your McAfee product.

Go to http://mvt.mcafee.com and follow the prompts to install and run MVT.  If MVT discovers any problems, allow it to repair those problems and attempt to enable Real-Time Scanning again.

If your status still shows that you are not protected, continue to Step 3.
