    Is it Win 7??

    This file in question (SYMTDI.SYS) is responsible for Network Dispatch Driver. If you have installed the NTP feature try uninstalling it and then check for the performance. This will help us narrow down the issue further.

    you can remove it, install SEP 11.0.6 from CD1 of SEP download you had earlier.make it manage using sylink.xml file..

    SEP 12 can manage SEP 11.0. 6 clients

    Hello,

    How much RAM do you carry on the Machine having Windows Vista?

    Incase, if you are carrying 512 MB RAM, please upgrade to 1 - 2 GB RAM and check.

     

    However, I personally would recommend you to open a Web case with Symantec Tech Support:

    You can log a case on web portal:

    Network driver update did not help,

    Audio drive update did not help, (was suggested by Symantec Tech)

    Reinstalling 11.0.6 did not help, still comes up with blue screen.

    Manual uninstall did remove 11.0.6 but files and registry entries of 12.1 still remains and would not allow you to install or uninstall.

    I have 2 GB or ram, some of them had 8 GB of RAM

    Finally on Thu, I did a system restore, It will come up with "Antivirus and Antispyware Protection" off. But just wait for few mins and it turns "ON".

    Then do a complete uninstall or 11.0.6, uninstall liveupdate, restart, and rollout the 11.0.6 client back and you are back to normal but with 11.0.6 client.

    Will wait for patch to be released before I roll our on Windows vista 32 bit.

    NOTE: Roll out on test PC first before you rollout on production.

    I did open a case and was asked to get the memory dump file and submit it to Symantec and was also told that it would take at least seven days before they come up with a conclusion.

    Did not have that kind of time when your rollout is messed up. Had to figure out by my self to go back to normal.

    Sorry in this case opening a case did not helped, in fact wasted my time.

    Uninstall of Symantec BackupExec Agent 12 R2 before upgrading to 12.x client fixed the issue.

    I hope this will help others at least it will help Symantec Tech support guys.

    Uninstalling the Backup Exec Agent fixed this issue for me. I was having this issue on WIndows 7 32bit. This appears to be a 32bit only bug with having Backup Exec Windows Agent installed along Symantec Endpoint Protection 12. Guess Symantec haven't tried this combination...
