uTorrent bluescreens my PC for the last 6 months

Recommended Posts

I've been using UT for years, but over the last 6 months or so, I find that after about 30 to 60 minutes of use, my PC bluescreens.

 

I'm not a techie in the world of torrenting, but it seems to have only been since Ver 3.4.2 arrived.  Older versions were fine.

 

I could delay the crash by closing all other programs, but it would still happen eventually.

 

When I reboot I get the standard Windows message that the PC shut down unexpectedly and opening it gives me this - 

 

Problem signature:
  Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
  OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1
  Locale ID: 2057
 
Additional information about the problem:
  BCCode: d1
  BCP1: 00797380
  BCP2: 00000002
  BCP3: 00000000
  BCP4: 94C7999F
  OS Version: 6_1_7601
  Service Pack: 1_0
  Product: 256_1
 
Files that help describe the problem:

I'm not sure how to open the .dmp file and I can't attach it, so any advice as to how to open it and stick it on here would be appreciated.
 
The .xml file is doesn't seem to be on the PC any more
 
In the meantime, I've had to revert to 3.1.2 and this is working fine.
 
Any ideas what is happening and what I could do?

Yes, I agree abut the network adaptor drivers, because it mentions something about that on the blue screen before - wlanGZG.sys and the address and base number.

 

HOWEVER, since reverting to uTorrent 3.1.2 and been using it for over 24 hours without a hitch, it seems to me that there's some glitch or at least something awry with 3.4.2 and all its many variants.

 

What can I do about the network adaptor drivers?  They've all been updated to the latest versions.

 

And why has this problem only started with UT 3.4.2 and no other version?

 

Easiest answer - stay with 3.1.2 and uncheck auto-update ...

 

BUT UT should really release new versions that actually work properly too ...
