windows 8 system service exception tcpip.sys on Samsung laptop.

Hi I recently purchased my new Samsung laptop (with Windows 8) and have been using it for a few days with no problems at all. All of a sudden I get a blue screen which has a sad face and says "system service exception (tcpip.sys)".

It's only started today when I turned on the laptop, last night before I shut it down it worked fine. 

It has shown this screen several times in the last hour with no success in actually using the laptop for more than 3-5 mins.

Note: it did make updates last night when it closed down.

Please help.

Thank you.

It may help to look at the minidump files from the crashes with a debugger.

Can you zip up the minidump files in the C:\Windows\Minidump folder and make available (provide link) via Windows Live SkyDrive or similar site?

The following link has information on using Windows Live SkyDrive:

If you have problems zipping the minidump files copy the minidump files to another location such as a folder on the Desktop

Also, you do not necessarily have to zip up the minidump files, you can upload them one at a time.

The error may be from having two real-time third party antivirus/firewall software installed, AVG and Norton.

 

I would suggest to uninstall both AVG and Norton and see if the errors resolve.

 

Afterward install just one third party antivirus/firewall program using the latest version or consider using just Windows 8 built-in antivirus (Windows Defender) and firewall.
