If you actually want help you need to post information about the bluescreen.

In general those are caused bug in drivers, faulty hardware or similar problem. Drivers in this case also includes all low level programs like anti-virus etc. which use drivers to get lower level access.

Hi there

What Grelier said! We will need:

  1. The exact BSOD message including error code

BSOD - Blue Screen of Death

The reason for a BSOD is rarely a piece of software (games are also a piece of software) it means your computer is having a stroke. And needs attention before it actually dies.

Things you can do yourself:

  1. Check if your UEFI is up-to-date and if not update it

In the past updating your ‘legacy’ BIOS could cause major issues, luckily with most modern hardware they switched to UEFI and the updating process is not only smoother but causes rarely havoc.

  1. Go to Device Manager (assuming you are on MS Windows) and check if you see any Red Questionmarks or Yellow Exclamation marks. If that’s the case, these drivers are either absent, corrupted or needs an update.

  2. Manually check the version of your Motherboard, GPU and CPU and visit their manufacturer’s website in order to figure out if you do have the latest drivers installed. You can use tools like ‘Speccy’ from Piriform to collect the exact names and versions of your Hardware. Also, check how you should ‘update’ your drivers, sometimes you need to follow a certain procedure that will be explained on your manufacturer’s website.

  3. MEMTEST86 or MEMTEST64 (depending CPU Layout) and / or WMDT (Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool) if you’re an experienced user, you can use MEMCHECK but I believe the latter is also sufficient. Google how to run this Windows service.

If your memory has faulty sectors, and one of your games (or any piece of software really) tries to ‘read or access’ this sector, it’ll result in a BSOD because it cannot reach it and thus the computer doesn’t know what the ‘bleep’ to do, besides -50 DKP ofcourse.

  1. CHKDSK - Check Disk service (MS Windows) run this on all the connected disks you have (in my case I have 5x HDD and 3x SSD > So that’s 8 checks to do) and see if you have any faults in your FAT32 Table (HDD) or if your SSD has issues

  2. Last but not least, if this sounds like rocket science, find your local family/friend or neighborhood Whizzkid and let him read this post.

And again, 7: Code plx!
