Blue screen errors can sometimes be caused by malware or adware. run malware scan to detect and remove them and check if problem persists.


3) Find out what triggers blue screen (BSOD):

If the BSOD appears consistently every time you use a specific program/ software, then the problem is likely related to it. try running that program/ software on some other computer to see whether the blue screen (BSOD) occurs. If the BSOD does not appear on other computer, the blue screen error is unique to your computer only. If the error is random or frequent, it may related to your hardware. you can also check your disk for errors using windows chkdsk utility.


3) Check for faulty memory (RAM)

Often time this will stop the BSOD errors, even if there was no fault detected during memory test.


5) Check computer's temperature

Sometimes problems persist with the overheating of the CPU. Check that the computer is not overheating. 

>case vents are not blocked or clogged.
>clean your CPU with a blower if necessary.
>check that all the internal and external fans are working properly.


6) Search the internet for the errors

The strangest solution, but sometimes worth a million, remove components and cables attached to your motherboard and reattach them and see if the problems persists.
