I always get kicked to a VGA screen when it does.

Instead of writing all that shit down on the screen, is there any log that contains the EXACT INFO that is displayed for that crash?

I don't have a printer so print screen won't work.

I have looked through them all nd can't find anything related.

Control Panel-> Administrative Tools-> Event Viewer
there u will find code of errors
so u can search microsoft.com or there r many other sites
and there u will find what App or Process caused an error.
and sometimes u will find exactly solution.


to enable BSOD
On the Advanced tab, under Startup and Recovery, click Settings
Under System Failure UNcheck Automatically reboot.

All I have is an error for DCOM, saying a service can't be loaded.
No Error logs are available.

How do I find what service this is?
