sirhero Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I've been using utorrent (many different versions) for years without any problems until my utorrent started to give dreaded windows "blue screen" recently. (windows vista professional edition) If it does not work, there is no problem in my computer (so its stable), but if I start utorrent, first it runs fine but then in 5 to 20 minutes, Window's blue screen comes up.I turned off different running applications and services to find out the culprit and then it narrowed it down to recently installed nero 9. After nero installation, it plants a new service named "nero backit up scheduler 4.0" into your windows and evidently this is clashing with utorrent and causing blue screen with DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Error. This service starts automatically everytime windows runs (even if you don't start nero) so it is killing utorrent somehow. I went to SERVICES and stopped this service and make sure it is NOT started automatically (I set it to manual start) and utorrent is now working fine. FYI.
