i just got BSOD'ed
 

Never happened before...
anyone have a clue what it means?

C:\DOCUME~1\ERICBA~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER7841.dir00\M ini050408-01.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\ERICBA~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER7841.dir00\s ysdata.xml

The top file is just a Windows Minidump....

You didn't call me back yesterday like I told you to....do you remember talking to me on Friday?

- Justin

nope lol...

Yea, you were pretty wasted.....you kept calling me while Ty and I were on the roof of the new house trying to get the vents all sealed up and whatnot.

- Justin

happens to the best of us haha..so you probably already told me, but any idea whats the reason for this?

Well, since I don't trust anything you said then - what were you doing when it came up?

- Justin

i just cut my hair, and when i got back (gone for 20 min) i come back to it..aim was open and nothin else other than that

It it blue screens anytime you try to reboot it?

- Justin

its about 50/50

Did Dell give you a Windows CD with your computer? If so, reinstall Windows overtop of itself.

- Justin

yeah...but its back home, and who knows where it is now lol...i just flashed the bios and cleaned inside the case...we'll see how that goes

thats why i have a a mac, no bsod hehe

but i would agree, put the windows cd in and try to restore the file(s)

restore is no good in this case. you're gonna have to reinstall.

Stop using windows and start using Linux

hm...i was reading, would deleting my account name, and starting a new one help?

Very doubtful....reinstalling windows overtop of itself is your best bet for now.

If it was hardware related, you would most likely get the BSoD all the time, not just sometimes.

- Justin

well..i made a temp account and its been running fine and stable since i started it this morning...we'll see how its looking in the morning...if not, when i get home later this week ill find the xp disc and fux around with it...

yeah...it didnt survive thru the night...guess ill have to find the disc when i head home in a couple days
