A critical error in Windows that causes a Blue Screen of Death is accompanied by a system freeze and an abrupt termination of the session followed by a reboot. As a rule, unsaved session data is lost because of it. Also, often the appearance of a critical error with a “blue screen” indicates serious malfunctions in the operating system and can lead to even more unpleasant consequences.

Causes

Before trying to deal with an error, you need to identify its causes and try to find an appropriate solution. In total, the reasons can be divided into two large general groups - hardware and software. The first ones arise in case of problems with the internal components of the computer. The second with the software part of the computer. The most common problems with hardware:

  • You have installed additional equipment that is incompatible with what is already installed. For example, they added RAM sticks that are incompatible with the motherboard or another stick;
  • Failure of certain computer components, for example, a hard drive or RAM stick. In such cases, the operating system may not boot at all;
  • You have incorrectly overclocked your video card, processor, or any other component.

Causes with a software component can be divided into the following categories:

  • Driver conflict and/or incompatibility with current hardware and software;
  • Penetration of virus software and its active activity;
  • Incorrectly installed updates to the operating system or programs important for its operation;
  • Problems with important system applications and services.

Option 1: Software conflict

If you have recently installed any program, then there is a possibility that this program conflicts with the operating system. It is also possible that some program on your computer has been updated, but the update packages conflict with the operating system or other programs. This usually concerns important system programs.

Provided that suspicion falls on a recently installed program, it needs to be removed. You can do this in the following way:


If you are unable to determine which program is causing the error or you think that it is not the program itself that is to blame, but its updates, then you will have to use the system restore option. From the interface of the operating system itself, this can be done like this (relevant only if you have "Restore Points"):

  1. Run "Control Panel".
  2. Expand the element there "Recovery". If you can’t find it, then put it opposite "View" parameter "Large icons".

  3. Here you will need to click on the button "Run System Restore".

  4. If you don't have it on your computer "Restore Points", then you will receive an error message. You will have to use the installation image of the operating system from a flash drive. If everything is fine, a window will appear containing a brief description of the system recovery function. Click "Further".
  5. Select the one you need from the list provided "Restore point". You need to choose the one that was created at a time when the computer was working normally.

  6. Click "Further".

  7. The procedure will begin to run. Wait for it to complete and don't touch anything. The process usually takes about an hour. Your personal data will not be affected.

If you do not have a “Restore Point” or the system does not boot, then you will have to restore it using a flash drive with a recorded system image. It is important that it be the same version and bitness as your operating system:


Option 2: Virus infection

There is some possibility that the Blue Screen of Death appears due to the fact that the computer has been infected with viruses. In this case, you will have to perform virus removal. Unfortunately, in Windows 7, the standard Defender antivirus is not as high quality as it is in Windows 8 and 10, so it will not be used in this article.

You will have to download and install some kind of antivirus if you don't have one. In this article, we will look at how to scan your computer for viruses and remove them using Kaspersky Free. This antivirus is a stripped-down version of paid solutions from Kaspersky, but is distributed completely free of charge. Its capabilities are sufficient to detect even the newest viruses:


Option 3: Not enough free space on Drive C

If there is too little space on the main volume of the hard drive, the computer may begin to slow down frequently and display various errors, including the “blue screen of death.” As a rule, in such cases, it is enough to simply clean up Disk C. Microsoft recommends that there be at least 100 megabytes of free memory on the disk. This is enough for the computer to function more or less normally and without failures. However, practice shows that for better computer performance you need about 10-15% of free space from the total volume size.

Let's look at how you can quickly clean your hard drive of various junk using the CCleaner program. User data will not be affected.


If cleaning does not free up enough disk space, you can also try to fix possible errors in the registry using the CCleaner program. This may also free up some space:


You can additionally clear space on Drive C by deleting and transferring programs to another volume. Using CCleaner you can remove this or that program:


Option 4: Install system updates

It is possible that all the problems are due to incorrectly installed or not installed updates at all. Some builds of Windows 7 are not always stable, so it is recommended to update them to get rid of most problems, since updates contain fixes. However, if you have a pirated copy of Windows installed, then it is better to refrain from updating, as you risk aggravating the situation.

The Windows 7 update process is as follows:


Option 5: Update drivers

Very often, the appearance of a blue screen of death is associated with incorrectly installed and/or not installed drivers at all. In this case, you need to reinstall the “problematic” drivers. However, it is very difficult to find out which component caused the error, especially if there are several of them, so it is recommended to use programs that automate the process.

The best solution in this case is DriverPack Solution. This program does not require installation on your computer. It is completely free, and the search and installation of drivers occurs automatically:

  1. Go to the official website of the Driver Pack developer. Click on the button “Install all necessary drivers”. After this, an archive with an EXE file will be downloaded to your computer, which you will need to run.

  2. When the program is launched for the first time, it begins scanning the computer for missing drivers. It usually takes no more than a minute.

  3. Driver Pack will offer you to use parameters automatically selected for your computer. To do this, use the button . However, in this case, DriverPack can install programs on the computer that it considers justified to install. Usually this software is not really needed by the user.

  4. If you do not want any additional software to be installed on your computer, but only the drivers you need at the moment, then use "Expert Mode", which is located at the bottom of the window.

  5. Here, pay attention to the left side of the window. There you need to go over the tile with the 4 squares icon.
  6. Uncheck all applications that you do not currently need on your computer or that have already been installed.

  7. When you're done, go back using the wrench icon. Click on the button there "Set up your computer automatically". In this case, only the drivers that remain selected will be installed.

  8. After clicking the button, the program will create "Restore point", with which you can roll back driver updates if they are suddenly performed incorrectly.

  9. Wait until your computer is set up and the necessary drivers are installed. When it's over you will need to click on "Further".

  10. Restart your computer and check if the blue screen error disappears.

Option 6: System errors

Blue screens in Windows 7 can be caused by various types of system errors. It is recommended that you write them down when the corresponding message appears and look at the documentation for them on the Microsoft website. If you do not have the opportunity to view the window with the error, then you can view it in a special window that opens as follows:

You can look for a solution to this problem on the official Microsoft website, but remember that most system errors can be resolved by running the operating system recovery process. The procedure was described in detail in the first scenario.

Option 7: Reset BIOS Settings

Incorrect settings in the BIOS can cause a blue screen to appear when working in the operating system, but most often when it starts. In this case, it is recommended to reset the BIOS settings or try to change the setting that causes the blue screen.

Since you are unlikely to know which parameter in the BIOS is configured incorrectly and that it causes the blue screen, the only option left is to reset the settings completely. It can be done from the operating system interface, but most likely it won’t start for you due to a blue screen, so let’s consider a universal option:


Option 8: Hardware problems

It is possible that the cause of the critical error and blue screen was the incorrect connection of any important computer components to the motherboard. Most often this happens if some contact suddenly falls out of its socket. To do this, you will have to disassemble the computer/laptop case and check if everything is in order. Additionally, inspect the cables and cables for physical defects.

If during the inspection it turns out that any of the elements are not connected tightly enough, then simply reconnect it. Provided that faults are found on one or another element, this part will have to be taken for repair or replaced with a new one. This statement is relevant both for damaged cables/cables and computer components (hard drive, motherboard, etc.).

As you can see, there are a lot of reasons that can cause a blue screen of death in Windows 7, and each of them needs to be “fighted” differently. Within the framework of this article, all variants of the occurrence of a critical error were considered and recommendations were given for eliminating them.

Today we will tell you what the Windows 7 blue screen of death is and what to do when it appears. We often encounter this phenomenon when the computer suddenly decides to randomly reboot. The Windows 7 Blue Screen of Death displays error codes along with many obscure messages. Knowing the meaning of the main codes will help eliminate the problem as efficiently as possible. If we see a blue screen, this means that the operating system cannot correct the situation on its own. The screen ends with a reboot, and all unsaved data is often lost. The main reasons for this phenomenon are: software errors, problems with PC hardware elements.

Reasons for the appearance of BSOD - screen of death

The Windows 7 Blue Screen of Death occurs due to problems in individual devices of the computer system or errors in the drivers responsible for supporting these devices. BSOD in some cases occurs due to a failure in the operating system kernel; it is commonly called low-level software.

It is not easy to determine the causes of a failure using the operating system, but the BlueScreenView program will help us. This application independently scans error data files and shows more detailed information about failures.

The classic Event Viewer tool theoretically allows you to get similar information, but in this case it will be displayed along with information from the system log and messages about application crashes. BlueScreenView receives information about all screens of death that have occurred in the system.

Here you can see a lot of useful information about the failure, among other things:

  • The driver that caused the error.
  • Description of the error.
  • Error code.
  • Time and date when the error occurred.

Let's name the main reasons for the occurrence of a “blue screen”:

  • Most often, the problem lies in a driver failure of one of the computer system devices.
  • Failure of a PC component, such as, for example, a video card or RAM.
  • Incorrect overclocking of RAM or processor.
  • configured with errors.
  • Incompatible hardware, conflict of individual PC components.
  • The computer is overheating.
  • Viruses have appeared in the system.

Advanced users and developers can use a more sophisticated tool from Microsoft called WinDbg.

Error codes

0x00000001

This code may appear if there are difficulties with the Compositebus.sys driver. When a portable or multimedia device is first connected to a PC, it installs the driver and resets the USB. The error is caused by simultaneous access to Compositebus.sys. If you try to install a third-party driver, a similar failure may occur.

0x00000002

The device queue was not busy. The problem lies in the drivers or hardware. To correct the situation, you need to update the drivers. The computer also needs to be scanned for viruses. The registry needs to be cleaned. It will also be useful to check your hard drive for errors. If this does not help, update your operating system to the latest version.

0x00000003

The error is also caused by hardware environments. The fix algorithm is already familiar to us: we check the hard drive for failures, clean the registry, look for viruses, eliminate them, update drivers. If all this turns out to be useless, download the current version of the Windows operating system onto your computer.

0x00000004

This code indicates an exceptional data access condition. The cause of the failure may be PC hardware or device drivers. We are already familiar with the recipe: get rid of everything unnecessary, eliminate viruses, update driver versions. If this does not help, you will have to switch to a more modern operating system.

0x00000005

This failure is due to a coding error in the Http.sys element. The operating system will have to be updated so that the situation does not repeat. This error occurs when the driver calls the KeAttachProcess function and a problem occurs if the thread is occupied by another process. Using the KeStackAttachProcess function may become more efficient in this situation.

0x00000006

This error is also related to KeAttachProcess. Going to the KeStackAttachProcess function will also help here. Other possible causes of this failure include: a breakdown in the power supply, memory failure, overheating. It is necessary to check the health of the power supply, test the hard drive and make sure that there are no viruses in the system. If this does not help, update the operating system.


Quite a few users have encountered the phenomenon of blue screen of death. Not everyone knows what to do (Windows 7 is most often susceptible to such trouble) in this situation. And therefore the sight of a blue screen is terrifying. However, sometimes error codes help correct the situation. They indicate a problem. And based on it, you need to make certain decisions regarding the treatment of the computer. Today we will learn how to deal with some of the causes of a blue screen, and also find out what should be done to eliminate this problem once and for all. Some advice from professional system administrators often helps even the average user overcome problems. Let us begin to study our current problem as soon as possible.

What's happened

But let's start by figuring out what we're going to be dealing with. Only after this will it be possible to think about how to remove the blue screen of death. To be honest, this issue requires special attention.

So, what kind of phenomenon will we become aware of today? death is a kind of system error. And it appears when the operating system boots or directly during operation. In this case, you get a blue screen for a while. Hence the strange name. Blue screen of death codes are written on it. More precisely, codification of the errors that have arisen. Based on them, you can figure out what is causing the problem. And sometimes even eliminate it.

But, as practice shows, a blue screen of death or some other) is the first sign that your computer is going into oblivion. This means that he will have to be treated quickly. We can say that our phenomenon is a demonstration that the operating system and hardware of the device refuse to work. Therefore, it is worth knowing how to behave in a given situation. Let's try to find out what can be done.

Screen problem

Let's get you started by learning about some common blue screen of death error codes. After all, they will help you not to be scared when it appears, but to quickly move on to decisive action. For example, quite often a blue screen of death occurs, error code 0x00000116. There is no need to be afraid of this phenomenon.

The thing is that this codification indicates that when loading the operating system, an attempt was made to reset and restart the display driver. And since we got an error, the action didn’t work. This problem can be solved in many ways. But there are some tips that will help you save your data as well.

First, you should try to reinstall the drivers on your computers. And that's all. And start with those related to the monitor and video card. Also, update your codecs. This helps a lot.

It would also be a good idea to disable antivirus programs when errors appear. Sometimes they cause a blue screen of death. What to do? Windows 7, as you know, is most susceptible to this phenomenon. This means that you will have to be very careful with antiviruses in it.

System boot

There is no point in listing all the blue screen of death codes. Windows 7 will give you errors when errors occur. And then, based on the data obtained, it will be possible to use a special directory of computer errors. This lists all the codes that relate to a blue screen. But still, we will look at one more option.

Quite often this blue screen of death appears: 0x0000007b. This error always occurs immediately when the computer boots. If the previous option can appear while working with programs, applications, games, then this one always “does not allow” Windows.

Code 0x0000007b indicates that access to the system partition of the hard drive was lost while the computer was booting. The reasons can be different - from a banal virus to major damage to the iron. But this problem always needs to be fixed.

Reinstalling Windows with full formatting and redoing the hard drive partitions helps here. But sometimes the problem does not go away even after such a radical step.

In this case, download the latest system configuration. To do this, when you boot your computer, press F8, then select “Last Known Known Configuration.” The computer will boot. You can be happy with the result.

Check the compatibility of the hard drive and other hardware. If there is any discrepancy, replace the components. After this the problem will disappear. Often, code 0x0000007b appears after connecting a new or additional hard drive.

Rollback

Now it’s worth learning the general provisions on how to remove the blue screen of death. Sometimes all the advice turns out to be quite effective, regardless of the error that occurs. And the first option that can be recommended is to perform a system rollback. The technique is relevant when the system boots initially.

In order to rollback, you need to go to “Start”, “All Programs”. Next, find the “Standard” section there, and from there go to “Service”. Select "System Restore". A window will appear in front of you with a welcome message and a warning that the process is irreversible. Agree and select a rollback point in the next menu that opens - to the moment when the computer was not bothered by the blue screen of death. Click "Next" and wait for a while.

During the entire process, the computer will reboot itself about 2-3 times. This is fine. After the rollback, some settings should be reset. But all programs and personal data will remain in perfect order. Quite often, this technique helps to permanently eliminate the problem.

Checking the contents

If you suddenly have a blue screen of death, you don’t know what to do (Windows 7 or any other operating system), then it’s time to check the configuration of your computer. Sometimes even an old cable can cause a lot of inconvenience. Particular attention should be paid to components in cases where you have recently changed something in your computer.

As already mentioned, often problems with the blue screen of death arise due to a hardware conflict. This may even apply to a flash drive. So be careful. If you suspect a hardware conflict in your computer and do not have the necessary knowledge about compatibility, it would be better to take your device to a specialized computer help service. They will help you quickly fix the problem.

In general, carefully study the compatibility of all components on your computer. This will help you avoid many problems. It will also prevent you from seeing the blue screen of death. Why else does it occur? And how to deal with it?

Overheat

For example, sometimes this phenomenon occurs when the computer or processor overheats. In the case of stationary options, everything is fixed quickly and easily - either an additional cooler is installed, or the hardware is cleaned (or it is better to start from this point), or it is completely removed from the case for greater air penetration.

But the blue screen of death on a laptop due to overheating is already a serious problem. Firstly, the device will have to be taken to a computer service for cleaning. Secondly, you may additionally need to install a cooler (and this service is not that cheap). Third, put less load on your computer while working. This will help avoid overheating and its consequences.

Applications

For some unknown reason, did you experience a blue screen of death? What to do? Windows 7 is an unsurpassed leader in this regard. And it was also in this operating system that application conflicts and their incompatibility with each other began to arise. This may be a consequence of the appearance of the death screen.

What to do in this case? First, remember after installing which program the problems started. After that, set the compatibility parameters. Sometimes this technique helps. But you shouldn’t rely too much on it.

If compatibility mode does not help, then uninstall the installed application. Don't want to spend a long time dealing with the problem? In this case, if you have nothing to lose, then simply reinstall the entire operating system. In this situation, this is often the best solution.

Update

Some users complain about the appearance of a blue screen of death after updating the operating system using the built-in center. If you notice that all the troubles started after this, you will have to do a system rollback and also disable process automation.

Go to Windows Update. There, go to settings. Select the option that is marked as "not recommended." That is, do not automatically check, download and install updates. Never. This will help avoid many problems in the future. And they will not necessarily be associated with the blue screen of death.

Drivers

Another problem that can arise and cause our current phenomenon is nothing more than hardware drivers. Sometimes they are the ones that cause the blue screen of death. What to do? Windows 7 offers a fairly fast, simple and secure solution. This is nothing more than reinstalling all existing drivers and updating them in a timely manner.

To prevent the process from causing inconvenience, it is best to use the official websites of manufacturers to download applications. They will not introduce infection to your computer. And there is always only high-quality content. After updating and installing all drivers, it is better to restart your computer. That's all. Now you will notice that the Blue Screen of Death problem will disappear. But this doesn't always happen. After all, there are other reasons for this phenomenon.

Antivirus

Occasionally there are situations in which a blue screen of death appears for no apparent reason. What to do? Windows 7 or any other operating system - it doesn't matter. The main thing is that there is one small but - this is an antivirus. If you have it, then it's worth turning it off for a while. Or delete it completely. And watch the computer. After all, sometimes it is this application that causes the blue screen of death.

Most often, owners of Avast and Kaspersky suffer from this phenomenon. As a last resort, replace the antivirus. Did it help? You can rejoice. No? Then completely remove the antivirus, and then take the computer for repair. Tell us about the problem - professionals will definitely help you there.

Viruses

And of course, the blue screen of death can appear due to viruses on the computer. Some infections are aimed at just this. Indeed, with this phenomenon, the entire operating system is destroyed. Do you suspect an infection? Then take your computer and treat it.

Scan it with antiviruses, antispyware and other healing content. Cure all dangerous objects, and then remove those that did not respond to the process. Usually this is enough. Also clean your computer's registry - this is important. Now look at the result. If all is useless, then reinstalling the operating system will help. But it's worth trying a rollback first.

Hello, friends! Finally we get to the topic of blue screens in Windows. This is familiar to every fan of Microsoft operating systems. When I first started getting acquainted with computers, I thought that this was how it should be. Getting a blue screen once every week or two is normal. Technology, as they say, is not ironclad. But no. As it turns out, this is extremely rare for good users. And the less often the better. Moreover, the OS tries in every possible way to help you with this by displaying hints on blue screen of death windows 7(there is much less information on the screen) about which you can and with great probability solve your problem. This is what we will do with you.

Before we get too lost in technical issues, I’ll say this. The main thing is to determine the driver and the error code that caused the blue screen. This is what most of the article is devoted to. Then, using the help of the old and the good, look for answers. This is the magic formula for eliminating critical errors in Windows operating systems.

Setting up your computer to diagnose blue screens of death in Windows 7

A memory dump is an image of memory or its contents at a specific point in time. Accordingly, a minidump or small dump is part of the contents of memory. Most likely important.

On the Advanced tab in the Boot and Recovery section

Click OK

All. The computer is configured to work favorably with blue screens.

In principle, this is already enough for diagnostics and searching by error code.

Now you need to tell us where to look and what to write down.

The picture shows a typical one.

What's here:

  1. Error name
  2. What can you try to prevent this from happening again?
  3. STOP error code (0x1000007e)
  4. Error parameters
  5. File or driver that may have caused the blue screen
  6. The address, it seems to me, where an error may have occurred

Now you can start searching for information without worry:

  • by error name
  • by error code
  • by error code + driver (5)
  • by error code and first parameter

Here we can wish you success and patience. Don't give up because you are not the only one. Your mistake has probably already been taken apart piece by piece on some forum.

Analyzing a memory dump using BlueScreenView

The BlueScreenView utility will help us get useful information by analyzing the dumps.

You can and should download it from the official website http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

You can see the bitness of your Windows in the properties of your .

Start > Computer > Properties section System type

You can read more about Windows bit depth in.

In the table below you can download your language for the program. Download, unpack and copy the BlueScreenView_lng.ini file to the program folder. Restart the program and it is in your native language.

Russified versions can be downloaded below

  • For 64-bit - bluescreenview-x64.rar
  • For 32-bit - bluescreenview-x32.rar

BlueScreenView detects the location of memory minidumps by default

C:\Windows\Minidump

If you have other dumps (for example, you want to analyze dumps from ) you can copy them to the same folder. If you don’t want to mix dumps from different computers, you can copy them to the root of drive C and delete them after analysis.

In any case, you must indicate the location of them

The first thing you need to do is . Second, it's on the motherboard. After that, work and see if there are blue screens. If they do, read on.

You can break down the causes of blue screens of death in Windows into three components:

  1. Equipment
  2. Drivers
  3. Programs

Computer equipment or components

One of the most common causes of blue screens in this category is RAM errors. We'll have to test it. How to do it - .

There may also be problems with the data storage system. In other words, yours wants to retire. Needs to be produced. And yes. Lack of hard disk space can also cause BSOD.

After we have tested all the components, it would be good to load the entire system using the same example.

If all components individually pass the test, but fail under the overall load, then it may fail. It is advisable to install a more powerful power supply during the test. At the same time, it would be good to measure the temperatures and if they are sky-high, then either carry the component under warranty if there is one.

Another great option is to disconnect all the connectors from the back wall and inside it (from the motherboard, video card, and optical drives) and reconnect. Perhaps some contact has oxidized and because of this the system does not receive proper power.

I completely forgot about the BIOS. At the time of testing, it is advisable to remove all overclocking and generally reset the settings to default. You can read about BIOS settings.

If it doesn't help, then it is advisable.

Drivers

According to some unverified sources, they are the causes of 70% of blue screens of death.

If it doesn’t help, then go to the equipment manufacturer’s website and download the latest driver and remove the old one. And install a new one.

You can simply uninstall the driver in Device Manager. Select a suspicious device. Right-click on it and select Properties. On .

If there are no new drivers, install an older version. If nothing helps here, then check the compatibility of the equipment with the Windows you have installed. If there is no compatibility, then either change the equipment or.

The drivers that most often cause the blue screen of death are .

Programs

With programs the same as with drivers. First you need to reinstall the existing one. Then go to the developer’s website and download the latest version. If there are no newer versions, try an older one.

An excellent program for removing other programs with all its giblets is.

Also, one of the possible causes of critical errors is the installation of two anti-virus solutions on one. This is strictly not recommended.

Conclusion

This is what I will do with mine, since it also sometimes pleases me with its Windows 7 blue screens of death.

The most important! Download drivers, programs and other things from official sites! This will greatly improve the survivability of your system.

A few more links so you don’t lose them yourself.

BSOD or Windows Blue Screen of Death
Each of us, sooner or later, using Windows systems, has encountered the problem of a blue screen (BSoD - Blue Screen of Death)

Let's look at what BSoD is and how to deal with it.

Windows 7 blue screen of death: what to do?

Basically, a blue screen consists of indicating the errors themselves and how to fix them.

Knowing this information you can:

Look for a solution based on the name of the error.
Search for a solution using the error code.
Troubleshoot the problem by knowing the driver or file that caused the error.

But what to do if you have a blue screen of death flashing and your computer restarts without you having time to look at the details? To do this, you should configure your computer in such a way that if an error occurs, you can properly view and understand it.

So, go to “Computer Properties”: to do this, right-click on the computer icon and select the “Properties” tab.

Then go to the “Advanced system settings” tab, click on the “Advanced” tab and click on the “Options” button

In the window that opens, you should uncheck the “Perform automatic reboot” tab: note that below there is a “Dump file” tab - it indicates the path where system errors will be recorded.

I also advise you to use the BlueScreenView program: it analyzes the causes of the failure in more detail and provides a detailed result. You can download it on the Internet, and it does not require installation.

I will briefly tell you how to use the program. Click on the program icon - a window will open in front of you, in which you will see the system dump.

By clicking on it, you will see complete information on the failure that occurred in the system.

How to fix blue screen of death on windows 7?

1. If error codes 0x0000007e appeared immediately after rebooting when installing Windows for the first time, most likely you do not have enough free space on your hard drive.

Solution: Make sure there is enough space on your hard drive, delete all unnecessary files, or format the hard drive.

2. If the “Windows 7 blue screen of death” error appeared due to driver installation, then you will see a message about this on the stop screen.

Solution: Uninstall the drivers you installed. To do this, try to enter safe mode and remove or disable the installed driver. But in normal operation, you will not be able to remove drivers, since the system will not give you such an opportunity.

Not every computer has alternative operating systems, so you should go into safe mode, create a folder and move all unnecessary drivers from the %Windir%/System32/Drivers directory there. You can recognize them by the date of creation. After this, you should reboot the system and continue installing or operating the system.

3. Your BIOS may not be compatible with the system. This mainly happens after installing the system.

Solution: Download BIOS updates from your motherboard manufacturer.

Solution: Check which RAM stick is faulty and, if found, replace it. In addition, you can select the RAM operating frequencies in the BIOS, but it is not a fact that problems of a different nature will not arise. You can also remove the RAM stick and clean the contacts with an eraser, and then plug it back in. It is also advisable to use Memfest or Microsoft Windows Memory Diagnostic as a program.

5. It is possible that error 0x0000007e occurs due to the win32.sys file - this means that the problem lies in the remote control of the computer.

Solution: remove the remote control program, if installed.

6. Faulty video card drivers.

Solution: Uninstall and update your video card drivers

7. Much depends on the changes that were made before the BSOD.

So, to remove the blue screen of death in Windows 7 (if there is no hardware problem involved), you can:

  • Try restarting the computer in Last Known Good Configuration mode. This will undo the last changes that were written to the system.
  • Try to restore the system “retroactively” (if system recovery was enabled).
  • Try rolling back the drivers to an earlier version. I really hope this brief overview has helped you in your journey.
