Hi,
I recently installed kaspersky. While installing it had prompted me to remove Grisoft AVG which i did. Then Continued installation and then restarted my pc. But nothing seems to run correctly.First is shows "dwwin.exe" cannot initialize. Then i ran SFC.exe and it showed same message. No application runs and my windows now keeps rebooting by itself. Please help me.

Windows rebooting by itself. Your PC is set to 'reboot on crash', go to system properties and turn it off. Then you will get the BSOD again.

You should not install or have installed two ANTIVIRUS programs, they tend to conflict with each other. I for one would remove Kapersky and put AVG back. My choice, YMMV.

Regardless stick to ONE, update it, and scan from safe mode.
