BSoD: Blue Screen of Death.
The Blue Screen of Death is a critical error screen displayed by Microsoft Windows and Apple ReactOS operating systems in the event of a fatal systems error (better known as a system crash).
Technically, a 'crash' is the operating system has reached a critical condition where it can no longer operate safely.
A 10 step process is done to recover the computer and system.
Best ways to avoid BSoD:
Create backups of documents and important data.
Make sure to keep up and install system software and driver updates.
Keep antivirus software updated and firewall in place.
AND, keep the computer clean and tidy.
