This error usually occurs after the installation of a buggy device driver, system service, or BIOS.
what version of avg did you install?

i already had AVG.....its just that the program updated itself when i switched on my comp and then it asked me to restart the comp and then the problem started.....the update happens everytime i start the comp but thats mostly the virus definitions...

i suppose the version was 7.5.
