How to fix Blue-Screen Error

When my computer is infected, and I know it has been because there is an explosion of pop-ups on my screen, I figure that the simplest way to deal with it is to wrench out the internet cable and switch my computer off in the fastest way possible in the vague hope that when it starts up again, the virus will have died. I leave my system untouched for a few days if I have to, just to make sure that it’s gone. Any sensible user will see how far my method gets me in resolving the problem at hand. Here’s a sensible way to fix most driver caused problems but you can also go for technical assistance online.

The blue screen error is caused by a virus file or driver that can lock up your computer. Pressing F8 will take you to a window where you can select a boot device. Some computers will do the same with F12. Start with safe mode. Choose the operating system to start. Go to Properties in My Computer and uninstall the video driver under the Hardware tab. Restarting will probably get you another blue screen that tells you exactly which file is causing your system crash. Start again in Safe Mode with Networking; search for it in Google and you can get some adware removers. You can even search for the file manually. Most such drivers get onto the Windows-System 32 folder and you can delete them from the containing folder.
