why did my pc crash after installing avg 7.5?

the pre installed trial f-secure had expired so i paid for and downloaded avg, as soon as i hit the finish intsall key pc started making weird noises & screen went blank, i’m new to computing so it took me a few hours to restore nearly all i had lost.upon rebooting and reinstalling talk talk i found i had another 3 mths free f-secure . i am now very wary of trying to install avg again. what did i do wrong? any ideas please.

Chosen Answer:

You haven’t mentioned if you had uninstalled trial version of f-secure before installing avg. Two antivirus program running at the same time may clash with each other. Also you can use ccleaner to remove unwanted files, system junk etc.

    There might be a conflicted with AVG and f-secure. I guess f-secure is a firewall software?
    You can try Sygate firewall, download it for free – http://www.simtel.net/product.download.mirrors.php?id=53687.
    I am using AVG with Sygate and works well.
    However, AVG will not be offering any more FREE version by Jan’07.
