• My computer keeps a blue screen: STOP 0x1E

  So, my computer keeps giving me the blue screen, usually 2 - 3 times a day.

  I got a really crappy picture on my camera the last time: http://tinypic.com/r/smsxzd/6
  Any ideas? I'm not good with that sort of thing, my sister said she crossed and installed all the updates, it is necessary, but it keeps crashing.

  We need the DMP file because it contains the single record of the sequence of events that led to the accident, what drivers have been loaded, and what has been loaded.

  If you are overclocking STOP

  You may be able to get the DMP files without crashing by booting in SafeMode (F8) with networking.

  Please follow these instructions to collect data against crashes and upload them here, to your Skydrive or a service such as Rapidshare file sharing.

• Computer keeps restarting, blue screen after windows logo.

  Hello!

  My computer keeps restarting. It gets to the windows logo then a blue screen for 1/2 seconds and it restarts. The last good configuration does not change. Tho, safe mode works (im writing this safe mode with networking). Last night I scanned my pc of viruses through safe mode and remove all what it found, nothing has worked. I did a system restore, it changed nothing.

  I unchecked 'restart system failure' and I managed to read the blue screen. He said that windows does not start to damage my computer. Then he said something about drivers and BIOS and the error was:

  "Technical information:

  "STOP: 0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0X83B463B2, 0XF7945270, 0XF7944F6C).
