The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Try uninstalling and reinstalling your flash player, if that doesn't work it may be time for a reformat.

    What is the BSOD Message?


    The problem may be able to be fixed before a whole reformat.

    Blue screen errors are quite common with bad memory
    Make a boot disk of Memtest and test your memory
