BSOD - V4.0.314 - Vista 32

[mickhardy]

Was installing CalendarPrintAssistance.exe from Microsoft for Outlook 2007 and received a BSOD in epfw.sys. I'm about to try installing again.

First issue so far on this machine with Vista32 and ESS V4.0.314. All latest drivers and updates are installed but it's a development machine and cops some flak. Been running V4 Beta and RC1 since day dot with no issues. ESS V4.0.314 installation was clean and has been running fine since day of release.

See minidump analysis below:

*******************************************************************************

* Bugcheck Analysis *

*******************************************************************************

UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP_M (1000007f)
This means a trap occurred in kernel mode, and it's a trap of a kind
that the kernel isn't allowed to have/catch (bound trap) or that
is always instant death (double fault). The first number in the
bugcheck params is the number of the trap (8 = double fault, etc)
Consult an Intel x86 family manual to learn more about what these
traps are. Here is a *portion* of those codes:
If kv shows a taskGate
use .tss on the part before the colon, then kv.
Else if kv shows a trapframe
use .trap on that value
Else
.trap on the appropriate frame will show where the trap was taken
(on x86, this will be the ebp that goes with the procedure KiTrap)
Endif
kb will then show the corrected stack.
Arguments:
Arg1: 00000008, EXCEPTION_DOUBLE_FAULT
Arg2: 803d3130
Arg3: 00000000
Arg4: 00000000

Failed again. At least it was expected this time, although I didn't lose any work first time either.

Anyone else game enough to try installing Microsoft's Calendar Printing Assistant for Outlook 2007? I'm curious now.

It installed fine with the firewall disabled and runs fine with the firewall enabled again.

EDIT: Installed at home with ESS V4.0.314 fully enabled using identical settings without any dramas.
