Re: PC Problem: Keep getting blue screen crash
Do you have the error message from the blue screen? Do the crashes appear to be random, or do certain actions tend to trigger them (like going full screen on a video).
Any software related changes (video drivers, etc) made recently?
Does it have two sticks of memory in it? I'd try removing one of them to see if the problem continues. Then try the other stick (in the same slot). Then try them individually in the 2nd mem slot.
Running memtest86 can help identify if there is a memory related problem. This is best done with a single memory stick in the machine at a time. http://www.memtest.org/Member of The OS Baseball Rocket Scientists Association -

Re: PC Problem: Keep getting blue screen crash
Are you overclocked? And how old is your equipment? I had a processor that I could run at 3.6 overclocked and after a couple of years, it just couldn't run there any more. Put it at 3.5 and the blue screens stopped.Comment
