Blue Screen of Death


by Sherman Choo

The Blue Screen of Death is a problem that can either be software or hardware based. I run a computer that uses Windows XP as my operating system. The Blue screen happens when either we installed some conflicting software that affects our registry, or there is an issue with the RAM.

This blue screen will give you a coded message asking if you have installed any hardware or software of late. If this was the 1st time you were seeing the screen, then you should just reboot the computer. This doesn't work for me. I recall running my Norton Anti Virus and whenever I did so, the blue screen will turn up and cause the computer to crash. Everytime I booted up, ran Norton, the software would crash.

Another instance was an account friend of mine who would use an accounting software called "Tally". Everything would be ok for the 1st 2 hours. then for some reason, the blue screen would just pop up. This was easily fixed using a Registry Cleaner. The cleaner detected some errors after a scan, and we fixed the errors.

Sometimes, this does not work, and the problem lies with the RAM. Before buying a new stick of RAM, be sure to test if the RAM is working by contacting your PC vendor who will run through with you how to test if the RAM is working. this is very helpful especially if you're a non techny like me. If you're versed in computer, then you'll know how to run RAM tests.

The Blue Screen of Death is an irritating problem but don't worry, it can be solved by taking the right measures.
