the true "blue screen of death" is much more rare than the screen many claim it to be. For those who say it is the screen that says "fatal error" and "press ctl+alt+del" you are WRONG. that is a blue screen but it isnt the BSD. the real Blue Screen of Death give a lot more information and starts out with "a problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer." This screen means your computer is hosed. Completely.
the screen i have gotten many times was blue, however it was not The Blue Screen of Death

2. An error message that appears on the Micrsoft Windows NT/2000/XP platform due driver or hardware problems. It is also referred to as a "STOP Error" because the word "STOP" is displayed at the top of the screen.

Microsoft's most interactive program which enables you to watch your computer slowly be eaten away by the crap like style of the so called WINDOWS franchise. If you want to get this program, it's quite easy really, free of charge. Just open Internet many times and copy and paste random vids on to the internet address bar and load it. It will then show you some random coded jargon that Bill Gates used to manipulate his users, of which they copy the so called Error Code and try to troubleshoot the system. Here are some steps to troubleshoot the system or BSOD.

1. Shoot the goddamn computer for god's sake.
2. Get a mac
3. Use linux
4. There really isn't anything else you can do except keep the system and watch it dump your files "MORE JARGON"
The Blue screen of death literally will kill you on impact.
