After installation of a Kaspersky Lab product, the systme may stop responding during startup or task execution. A Kaspersky Lab product might conflict either with software installed on your computer or some drivers. In such cases, please contact Tecnical Support. Technical support engineers may ask you to send a complete memory dump file to find a solution to the issue.
You can enable dump collection on computers with USB keyboards on computers running under Windows Vista (SP1 and SP2) and Windows 7 the following way:
