Encountering a blue screen error on my laptop

If you encountered a blue screen error but you didn’t made any changes to your machine, try shutting down your computer. Turn it off for about ten to twenty seconds (10 – 20 seconds). After this, turn the CPU on then see if it works. If this doesn’t work, try booting your computer using the last known good configuration.

To do this, restart your computer then press F8 before the Windows logo appears. In “Advanced Boot Options” screen, scroll down and select “Last known good configuration” then hit Enter to boot using the option. See if this works. If this doesn’t work, try doing a diagnostic startup. Repeat the same steps to boot to the “Advanced Boot Options” screen.

Here, select “Safe Mode” then hit Enter. In Safe Mode, press the Windows key + R to bring up the “Run” dialog then type without quotes “msconfig” then hit Enter. In the “System Configuration Utility” window, in “General” tab, select “Diagnostic Startup” then click “OK” and then reboot the computer. See if the machine boots successfully.

If this worked, repeat the same steps to open the “System Configuration Utility” window then in “General” tab, select “Selective Startup” and then click “OK”. Restart the computer. After booting, open your web browser and download the free version of CCleaner and install it. Once installed, start CCleaner then select “Tools” on the left pane and then select “Startup” on the right.

Now, since all startup applications are disabled, you need to re-enable them one at a time. To do this, in “Windows” tab, select the first item on the list then click “Enable”. Close CCleaner then restart the computer. See if this works. If this works and you don’t see the blue screen error, repeat the same steps then re-enable the next item on the list.

Keep doing this until the blue screen error appears. When the blue screen appears, follow the steps to boot in Safe Mode. In Safe Mode, start CCleaner then disable the last item you enabled. Restart the computer. After booting, uninstall the program that caused the error or install an updated version.
