At this point, I'll ask my friend to take a look at this thread. Maybe, he'll see something, I'm not seeing.
Hold on there. I'm not sure, how quickly I can get hold of him.

I sent him a message, but meanwhile, I'd like to try one more thing. Hold on...

Download this program

Drag RootRepeal.exe file onto Inherit.exe.

Then wait for it to say "OK". The programs should run fine after doing that.

Note: Dragging shortcuts to Inherit.exe will not work. To see what files shortcuts point to you will need to right-click the shortcut and select "Properties."
The .exe file that you will have to drag onto Inherit.exe is listed next to "Target"

See, if RootRepeal will run after that.

Ran RootRepeal over Inherit, and on the second try a report was produced. However, that's when the program (& Windows) froze and didn't save a logfile. Tried another two times with no luck.

I just got reply from my friend and this is what he wants you to do.

* Download Win32kDiag from any of the following locations and save it to your Desktop.

- http://ad13.geekstogo.com/Win32kDiag.exe
- http://download.bleepingcomputer.com...Win32kDiag.exe
- http://rootrepeal.psikotick.com/Win32kDiag.exe

* Double-click Win32kDiag.exe to run it and and let it finish.
* When it states Finished! Press any key to exit..., press any key to close the program.
* It will save a Win32kDiag.txt file to your desktop automatically. Attach this log file to your next message.

I want you also run this...

Let's see what my friend will say about it.

Win32kDiag log doesn't look right.
Try to right click on Win32kDiag.exe and click Run as Administrator.

I ran Win32KDiag as the Administrator the first time. I did it again. Logfile (which looks the same) follows.
