How Can I Fix Blue Screen of Death Problems?

December 25th, 2009

 

Does your computer show a blue screen and shut down when you start a specific program? Does it do this at any given random moment? If so, you probably need help to fix blue screen of death problems you're having.

 

Why exactly are you getting the blue screen of death? Windows displays this screen when it runs into an error that it cannot resolve any other way than by shutting down.

The exact reasons for this shut-down may vary. It can be something as simple and easily fixable as incompatible hardware. Or it could be a serious registry problem that will virtually immobilize your PC. This shut-down screen usually displays an error code that you can look up online to find out more.

 

Sometimes the problem can be as simple as taking away new hardware that you've installed. If you're seeing a message about a memory dump, for example, then you probably just need to remove the new RAM you put in your computer. Most computer and electronics stores will let you trade this in for something more compatible if you tell them about your problem.

 

Unfortunately, fixing the Windows stop error screen isn't always that easy. If you appear to have a software problem, start up your computer in safe mode. Then run a full virus scan and see if you find anything.

 

If you still get nothing, then try safe mode again. Run from your last known "good configuration" restore point. Usually, this should do the trick for you.

 

Is there any way to completely avoid having to fix blue screen of death errors in the future? If you keep your PC "clean" and running smoothly, then you're a lot less likely to encounter this and other errors.
