The World of Mobile Phones

If you use a computer on a regular basis, then you’re probably not all that surprised when error messages occasionally pop up now and then. Quite often, it’s just your PC trying to tell you it needs time to think and it might freeze on you for a second or two or throw up the ‘not responding’ – give me a break! message. These are usually inconsequential errors unlike Blue Screen Error Codes which are practically every PC users nightmare.

When the computer displays the dreaded blue screen it can be a bit of a surprise. If it’s the first time to see one, you may not realize how significant the problem is and go with the usual response. That is following an IT pro’s usual solution of turning the computer off and then back on.

Nowadays, I seldom call IT if I have a computer crash at the office. I save them the trouble of telling me to restart the computer and just do it. Blue screen problems however are different to the usual program freeze, since you can’t shut down a non-responding program in ‘task manager.’ In fact the only option is to reboot your computer.

It’s a common assumption to think that this is a ‘one-off’ experience and you’ll be on your way, never to see a blue screen again. But don’t be fooled because Stop error codes aren’t as random as you might think. Usually the cause of the blue screen crash is a software or hardware fault or incompatibility. Ignoring blue screens, won’t make them go away, as they will usually come up again.

Getting the stop error code can be infuriating when you haven’t saved what you’ve been working on for the past hour. You can wave goodbye to all your efforts since a restart usually means all you work will be gone. If you know the ins and outs of a PC you might be able to recover data, but don’t risk it if you don’t know what you’re doing.

So what now? Do you take it to a PC repair store? I guess if you’re dead set on retrieving your work, then it’s a possible answer. You may or may not be reassured to hear that getting the Unmountable Boot Volume Blue Screen is a relatively common issue, especially for older operating systems. It is more commonly known as the ‘Blue Screen of Death’ or BSoD for short. So you’re thinking ‘you’re in luck’ because it should be an easy fix, being a frequent issue and all. In some cases it is, however the list of stop errors can run for pages.

By far the most frequently occurring reasons for blue screen error codes are driver and registry issues. Conflicts can be caused from incorrect installation or update of programs, hardware devices and printers etc. The solution may be simple such as rolling back a newly updated driver. Yes, as you probably know already, manufacturers often release versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 to infinity of updates since they don’t always get it right the first time round.

Next time you see the stop error message, take note of what it says. It contains essential information on finding a resolution. If the message looks nonsensical and confusing, you are on the right track. Once you have your message, either show it to someone who knows about computers or plug it into the search engine see if you can find the solution.

While seeking help from a computer expert isn’t a bad idea, it’s often not necessary. A wide range of errors and problems can be fixed automatically using software.
