Blue Screen stop error: 0X000000F4

[Nicolas Macarez]

My computer is running VISTA PRO.
HP Pavilion PC a6167.fr with 3 GB RAM, etc.
Every two or three days, I have a Blue Screen with this main info:

Technical information: stop : 0X000000F4 (0X00000003, 0X87A7F020,
0X87A7F16C, 0X82644430)

Any idea where it might comme from?

Otherwise the machine is running fine. I was not able to copy and exploit
the mini dump: the file just disappeared between the time the customer
called me and I checked the machine.

Here you go
0x000000F4: CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION

One of the many processes or threads crucial to system operation has unexpectedly
exited or been terminated. As a result, the system can no longer function. Specific
causes are many, and often best resolved by a careful history of the problem and the
circumstances of the error message. One user, who experienced this on return from
Standby mode on Win XP SP2, found the cause was that Windows was installed on a
slave drive; compare KB 330100.

Thanks Peter,
I did a debug of the minidump.
Here is a nice tutorial: http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35246
It got me the answer, I think: Ad-Aware of Lavasoft is causing the problem.
Apparently, nothing to do with any disk issue.
