How to determine what caused a blue screen
The helpful Microsoft message says that the most likely cause of the
blue screen is a device driver. Does anyone know how to determine if a driver is causing it, a piece of hardware, or whatever?! It's very frustrating because it happens about once or twice a week. |

How to determine what caused a blue screen
You need supply the STOP code (0x000...) or the title of the error
(LOOKS_LIKE_THIS). --- Ted Zieglar "Backup is a computer user's best friend." !TG wrote: The helpful Microsoft message says that the most likely cause of the blue screen is a device driver.

If you suspect a recently added device or software, call their support and they will analyse the blue screen info for you. For the rest of us, Windows can send this info to Microsoft, where they classify it and may suggest a solution if this is a common issue .... but our problems mostly are too unique Regards, --PA |
