Hello i am trying help a friend out with his computer since he got a virus which made him to reformat his harddrive. Now i want to help him recover his files. Im using Photorec to do it and it does fine untill after 20 min of scanning and recovering it suddenly goes into a blue screen and then reboots the computer, Am i doing something wrong? I followed the instruction that was given on the site but i have no idea what i am doing wrong or could it be a damaged partition or harddrive?

btw awesome program

If the problem was in PhotoRec itself, the program would have crash but not the OS.
So maybe the CPU is over heating or a computer memory is bad.
