IF you are getting a blue screen it should have the word "STOP" followed by some numbers. The first of those numbers will identify the broad category of problem. You need to google it. The four numbers that follow it will explain the specific memory address and hence, the offending software. First thing to check it whether the computer needs dirt cleaned out of the cooling fan on the chip. If the CPU overheats, particularly on older computers, it will almost always end in a blue screen. If you have crap in the heat sink (cooling fins) on the processor you have to get it out.

I've mentioned before that my computer has been crashing and putting up a blue screen. Have you installed Blue Scree View? It helps single out what is causing the error. It helped me when I was getting them. It was nothing more than a simple change in one program setting for me when it was driving me nuts. download.cnet.com
