Author Topic: Yay, Blue Screen Of Death!  (Read 935 times)

I was browsing a usual website I go to, to find a custom font similar to the cool reversible Illuminati font. As I was scrolling down the page I was suddenly interrupted by the Blue Screen Of Death in my face. I lasted for about 5 seconds then disappeared, rebooting my machine in the process. The following few times I attempted desperately to boot up my randomly crippled system. It would load up and show the Vista Orb at startup and then the sound would get clipped and repeated, and that horrible screen showed up again and rebooted.

Thankfully, HP saved my computer. It automatically detected the whole thing and asked me if I wanted to do the Microsoft Startup Repair (It even said that probably won't work) or a system restore. So I did a quick restore to before I uninstalled a bunch of old games, and it began restoring. Half way through the restore, disaster again, as the screen showed up but this time locked my computer up completely.

I hardbooted it and loaded it up again. I was expecting the same thing to happen, but strangely the system booted up. Everything is ok, but what really confuses me is that I have FSX and my old games back for some reason... and the restore didn't even go properly.

TL;DR:Don't google Illuminati. /conspiracy

Discues.

EDIT: Also, the weird thing, I did not install anything recently or change my hardware. I didn't do anything, it just happened for no reason?

Do you remember what the specific error message said?

 Its your bitch avatar, confuses everyone.

Like I said, the screen lasted less than a second, then it rebooted.

Something to do with memory... but I think that always shows up.

Ok, I've got it. It happened again, and I looked it up. They said to look around your Minidump folder.

I didn't find anything, but I think it may have something to do with faulty RAM.

The error said: "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA"




Exactly
Then maybe you should get the hell out of here because you have nothing good to contribute? Oh, and that wasn't funny.
