delta7 Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 usually in xp if you get the blue screen the machine will reboot automatically and you wont have time to read the error, however the message is written to a file and you can read this with a free microsoft tool - anyway this article tells you how http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35246 you can then use the information to identify the problem and try to fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattler Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 You can also set your computer to not automatically reboot; In forget exactly how right now, but I think that it's a BIOS setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
