Just got a random BSOD, what?

This has only happened once before, and that was like 4 years ago. What could have caused this?

I have no idea what to tell you then

Open start menu, search event viewer, open that up and open windows logs via arrow thingy, then select system. The one thats critical in the list probably caused it.

get blue screen viewer or something and look up the error code

Happens to me about 1-2 times a year.

Ok, found this:

Failing Power Supply, also could have been faulty from the beginning/low quality. Replace it IMMEDIATELY or face the total failure of your PC.

AIs it possible to see if it happens again? I mean this just randomly happened, and the last time it did was 4 YEARS ago.

Looks like a power issue, you should probably replace the PSU.

[Messes]

I'd be on the safe side and replace your psu asap.

Alright, alright. Fine, I'll get it done.

It should've been an AtlasBlue Screen of Death
Replace your PSU

I get these when my computer doesn't properly turns on, like, you turn it on but a black screen stays there. so, I hold the turn on/off button and restart it. works fine most of the time.
