GPO Causing BSOD when installing 32-bit software

I have been running ZCM 11 for about a month now in a windows 7 test environment. I have created a group policy that is assigned to my user, it was working up to the point when I attempted to install Adobe Reader 9.3.4. Upon finishing the install I get a BSOD, and upon re-login I get another BSOD. This will happen continuously until I login computer only, remove Adobe Reader, and restart the computer. I attempted to also install Firefox and I get the same problem. I decided to remove the group policy assignment from my username and upon doing this the BSODs no longer happen after installing the same software. Once I reinstate the policy, BSODs start again.

Could something be wrong in the group policy that is causing these BSODs? If so, I can't find it. :confused:

Re: GPO Causing BSOD when installing 32-bit software

Edit: It appears I was wrong about the group policy being the problem. I have just started experiencing more BSODs. Perhaps this needs to be moved to a Novell Client SP2 forum. I run Windows 7 professional 64-bit at home and have none of these issues, with the same programs. This must be a Novell Client conflict.

You have not stated if you hare using the ZCM Client Update 2 on your
device. If not, I strongly recommend that.

Also, prior to getting too far in your testing, ZCM 11 SP1 will likely
be available in the not too distant future.

Craig,

...and an indication of what the blue screen error is would be a good
start
