    I just got my G53jw two days ago and i have installed several programs and applications. Now, blue screen keep appearing all of sudden forcing to restart my laptop every time. Whenever i try to check updates for windows or scan for files, the blue screen popped up. Any1 know how to fix this issue?

    My bios version is 209

    Do you remember that the last application(s) you installed before your notebook started giving you blue screens?

    It's most likely a driver conflict.

    Is it possible to see what the error code on the blue screen is before if restarts?

    Press F8 when before loading windows and chose "last known good config". If that doesn't work, boot in SafeMode and try System Restore to a previous date - couple days behind should do it. (provided you didn't disable it).

    System Restore does not affect your personal files/applications. Most probably a simple repair of the application/game would fix it.

    More info so they can analyze your problem thoroughly >_< you installed a program which is not compatible or updated something.
