    After having used Roxio Burn (a factory install application) recently, I got the BSOD on the next startup.

    After an unsuccessful repair attempt by W7, I got the msg:
    "Startup Repair cannot repair this computer automatically"

    XPS TS determined Roxio Burn can conflict with AnyDVD at startup.

    One Solution:
    Uninstall Roxio Burn
    Use W7 Burning App or install Nero 10.

    Anyone else have a better solution?
    (Removing AnyDVD is not an option for me)


    ---------------------- details -------------------
    xps TS reviewed BSOD details captured by W7....
    "problem caused by following file: ntoskrnl.exe
    (Meaning, a program(s) running in kernel mode caused crash)

    Review of startup programs by XPS TS showed Roxio Burn and AnyDVD
    running at startup caused BSOD.
