Symtdi.sys error (restart)

[Kijana]

I need to know how I can resolve an error related to symtdi.sys that causes my computer to restart very often (every 30 minutes).

Attached is the a minidump file.

Thank You.

SYMTDI.sys is a driver file belonging to Symantec (Norton)..

Possible solutions:

Download Avast or Avira They are both free antivirus programs recommended by users of techspot. Then start your computer in safe mode and uninstall everything norton related. Then install either avast or avira (one or the other..not both) and see if that fixes your issue.

Secondly you could try updating norton and see if that fixes your issue.

After doing the above stated please post back and let us know if the issue was resolved or not.

Sorry for not replying earlier. I have a slightly different scenario from the one in your reply because, one, I have never installed any Norton product in my computer. Secondly, I have Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 as my anti-virus solution.

With Kaspersky, I have tried scanning in safe-mode but still I have the same problem.

Thank you for your concern and please advice.

You have several Norton files on your computer. Symtdi.sys is conflicting with Kaspersky.

Thank You peterdiva.

I was able to locate symtdi.sys and delete it and my machine is back to normal (it has not restarted for two days). I could not locate the other files and I believe my problem is gone so I'll leave them be.

Thank you again.
