- The

Blue Screen of Death

appears when Windows encounters a critical system error and can't continue.

- It shuts down your computer to prevent damage.

- The blue screen is displayed to inform you of this fact.

- If it's the first time you've gotten the blue screen, just restart your computer.

- If you get the blue screen again check to make sure all your device drivers are up-to-date.

- Microsoft states that most often, the Blue Screen of Death is caused by bad device drivers.

- You might also want to check any software you recently installed and make sure you have the latest version.

- If you continue to get the blue screen you may want to disconnect any new device to see if that is the cause.
