Blue Screen of Death when trying to install NIS 2010 after upgrade to Windows 7

Hi

 

I have upgraded to Windows 7 32 Bit Pro. from Vista.  The upgrade was a painful process, which involved a re-install.

 

I now have a clean version of 7 SP1 running, however whenever I try to re-install NIS 2010 I get a BSOD during installation, and on every boot.  Windows repair has to kick in and remove NIS before a boot completes.

 

I have run Norton un installer and also ensured that Windows is fully up-to date before attempting to re-install, but no success - BSOD on every attempt.

 

Any suggestions please?  I would really like to stay with NIS, but it won't let me!

 

Thanks

 

Jim

Can you post us the BSOD code(e.g. 0x0000008E PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA) ?

Here we go:

 

 SYMEFA.SYS

 

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA

 

Technical Information:

 Stop: 0x00000050  (0x9809d4e4,0x00000000,0x8b4ccff6, 0x00000002)

 

SYMEFA.SYS  - Adress 8b4ccff6 base at 8b4b1000, date stamp 4b0b384b

 

Thanks

Hi Jim

 

Try with NIS2011 and see if you get the same issue. Your NIS2010 key will activate 2011. You can download NIS2011 from the following link
