I've been experiencing / trying to resolve this issue for past several days. I am not able to work and my clients are yelling.
~*~*~ How it Started ~*~*~
I had AVG Free, and it was periodically giving me notification of 'Threat Block' of and exe (of different name) file in user/admin.
I also suspected that my machine was being accessed (because i used to see unusual behavior like move movements and couple of other things).
Because Avg Free does not have firewall i decided to use ZoneAlarm after i clear my system using Combofix.
Combofix requires disabling AVG. I disabled but that still did not work so uninstalled AVG.
AND BSOD started.
~*~*~ Observation ~*~*~
Because the system restarts, after blue screen, in few second, i am not able to note down everything i see.
However, irql_not_less_or_equal appears for 90%+ times.
Other are....
1) I/O detection....faulty driver...kernel.
2) memory_management
3) system driver synchronization issue
~*~*~ Current Status ~*~*~
Right now in Safe Mode.
I could not installed ZoneAlarm because it was giving BSOD citing vsdatant.sys is corrupting system file.
I re-installed AVG. Now it is also giving me BSOD.
I also tried memory diagnosis.
I used windows driver verifier. In case you need dmp files, then check here https://volafile.org/r/c3habv68
