Almost everyone who works on a computer has faced the problem of a blue screen with white letters on the monitor. This phenomenon is called the blue "screen of death". This type of computer screen indicates a problem with the operating system.
There may be several factors influencing the appearance of the blue "screen of death". They often report computer malfunctions. Let's consider the main reasons for the appearance of the "screen of death".
Critical computer errors are one of the main causes of blue screens. These errors can be caused by the process of executing kernel code or the driver in kernel mode. In this case, further normal functioning of the system is not possible.
A blue screen may appear on the monitor due to the replacement of some of the computer components. For example, video cards, hard drives, audio adapters, and devices in PCI slots. As a result, the drivers installed on the computer for these devices may be incompatible with the general configuration of the computer. In this case, the Stop Error system stops working (stop due to an error). The result is a BSoD monitor output, on which you can read a description of the problem. In such cases, only restarting the computer can help. It should be borne in mind that a reboot may result in the loss of unsaved data and installed "problem" drivers.
The blue "screen of death" can also appear due to pressing a certain key combination. This sometimes happens by accident. For example, a child might press a key combination to invoke BSoD. In this case, the blue screen does not carry information about errors, since they did not occur. It should be remembered that calling BSoD too often can lead to problems in the operation of the operating system and loss of information. Therefore, you need to be careful when handling the keyboard.
