    Seeing as the topic of blue screens has come up, what does it mean when you get a blue screen and it starts dumping memory? I have had this happen a few times on my laptop Another time i got a blue screen that said unbootable mount drive or something to that effect. Maybe obvious to some, could someone please elaborate what these errors mean and how to fix them?

    Thanxs

    The blue screen of death is a rather terrifying display image containing white text on a blue background that is generated by Windows operating systems when the system has suddenly terminated with an error.

    Slang used to describe the blue Fatal Exception Error screen that appears after a full blown system crash.

    The blue screen of death (BSoD) is the screen displayed by Microsoft's Windows operating system when it cannot (or is in danger of being unable to) recover from a system error. There are two Windows error screens that are both referred to as the blue screen of death, with one being significantly more serious than the other.

    Boot in safe mode. Right Click My Computer and click properties. Click the advanced tab then click the settings button under Start up and recovery and uncheck the box that says automaticallly restart then u can go in and find the virous and delete it.

    Are you sure the computer is restarting and not just going into standby/sleep mode? That sounds like what it's doing.

    There's a setting that controls how long your computer can sit idle before it starts conserving energy and goes into a lower power-consuming state, such as standby, sleep or hibernate. When you activate the computer again (usually by jiggling the mouse or pressing a key on the key***rd), by default you're presented with the login screen and are required to sign in again.

    It's advantageous to use these settings as apposed to exiting out of all your programs and completely turning off your computer each time you walk away for a few minutes, as well as it preventing other people from getting on your account once you've walked away.

    Rebooting is one of the best solution for solving your computer restarting problem. this can be done by few simple steps start button on task bar> control panel > uninstall a program. Uninstall all the unnecessary software and follow the instruction given on the screen and after that reboot your machine.
    This is the good tactics of rebooting your system.
