How to fix Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows with Pictures

 

The "blue screen" or "Blue Screen of Death (BSOD)" is an error screen displayed by the Microsoft Windows operating system after encountering a critical system error that prevents the operating system from functioning properly. The blue screen will typically display the error code, along with some technical information, which can help diagnose and resolve the issue.

To resolve a blue screen error in Windows, follow these steps:

1. Restart your computer: 

Sometimes, simply restarting the computer can resolve the issue.

2. Check for hardware issues: 

Make sure that all of your hardware is securely connected and functioning properly.

3. Run System File Checker (SFC) scan: 

SFC scan can help you detect and repair corrupted system files. 

4. Uninstall recently installed software or drivers:

If you recently installed new software or drivers, it could be the cause of the blue screen error. Try removing it to check if the problem gets fixed.
