Eamon.sys causes BSOD on shutdown

I´ve had some strange behavior lately with BSOD when I shutdown the computer. It seems that it´s eamon.sys that causes it. Does anybody have any ideas?

Could you create a complete or kernel memory dump, upload it to an ftp and send me the link to it? It's quite common that there's a serious problem with the OS and since eamon.sys is the last one in the order it's flagged as the culprit even though it isn't.

 

Hi Marcos,
I see a number of crashes just like this in the online crash analysis database of Microsoft while reviewing our Vista SP2 data. I would like to work with you get this resolved if possible. I would expect we could get this resolved pretty quickly with driver verifier etc.

 

I have exactly the same problem. I use a Vista Ultimate SP2 (RTM) x64.
I run an ESET 4.0.424.0. Antivirus.
I do not run any security program beside ESET NOd
My message is: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.
The problem is the eamon.sys driver, and of course, I have the minidump file.
There's an other issue which colors the picture however: at random reboots the "real time file protection" does NOT start, leaving the tray-icon red (which is green, when everything works flawlessly).
I tried to repair the installation via the eav_nt64_enu.msi installation file, but it did not work out. The problem endured.
I did the process with UAC disabled, of course (to get enough privileges).
Thanx for any help - I appreciate Your effort!

 

I assume you haven't read all the other posts on here regarding Vista SP2 and ESET? There's a fair number of people experiencing problems.

You'll probably find everything is tickety-boo with SP1.

Thanx. It's just Google come up with the results when searching, and took me here. I got a little bit relaxed now knowing that many fella users have the same problem. First I thought it's a unique problem of my own OS.
BTW, U meant this thread, didn't U:
https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=241025
Thanx for the headsup, though.

 

Yep that's the one. Hopefully there will be a resolution soon.


Jim

 

Same problem here... BSOD via eamon.sys, funny thing is I was installing SP2... Then BSOD on phase 3 of 3.

 

Yes that's where I first had it.
