Antivirus Program Error

[Metallifreak]

I have an little problem. I'm using on my Intel Core i7 the "Windows 7 Home Premium" version. I used to have Avast or AVG Antivirus, but since i have activated my Windows Version, those programs aren't compatible anymore. I always get an error message when I wanna install or start those programs. Does anyone know an good program, which is compatible with this Windows version???

I would you advice next time first activate Windows and only after that install Antivirus programm, because my AVG works fine.

But you can try go to 2 ways: Uninstall your current antivirus and install the last version of it. Or install "Microsoft Security Essentials" - free antivirus from Microsoft directly.

Remove any antivirus programs you have installed. Install this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... s-download

Maybe you're trying to install a 64 bit version on a 32 bit OS. Have you tried downloading the latest versions from their websites to install.

Yes Mike, I did

What type of error message are you getting? They are definitely compatible with all versions of Windows 7. Personally I only run Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware on my system and never run into any problems. I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
