Re: Blue screen crashes



Dominic

Have you backed up important data files?

Please post a copy of the Stop Error Report.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have
resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message.

An alternative is to keep pressing the F8 key during Start-Up and select
option - Disable automatic restart on system failure.

If you are using a wireless keyboard and the F8 key does not work
substitute a wired keyboard and mouse for this exercise only.

Hope this helps.

hi all,

my xp pro machine has progresses from crashing nearly every program
and having the odd unexplained reboot to now having blue screen
crashes.

I look at the blue screen but there is nothing that stands out as a
problem.

Usually blue screens are either drivers or hardware failure.

Could someone help me through this mess.

thanks

Dominic
