  1. I started getting blue screens on my computer after installing a malware without knowing...


    I downloaded some game from a website and installed the files but there was an odd .exe in there and thought it was a part of the game so I installed it as well. And hell broke loose. I started getting blue screen once every 5 minutes. I installed Avast and did a quick scan and eradicated most of the viruses I had, the one I installed included, and now the blue screen is less frequent, it went from 5 minutes to hours, but I still get it. I ran a deep scan on Avast but it was interrupted by the blue screen twice. Can someone please help on how I can solve this?

  3. Computer Freezes Then Blue Screen

    Hello,

    A stop error (also called a "blue screen" error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. These errors can be caused by both hardware and software issues.

    For us to better assist you, we'd like to know the following:

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    • Click OK.
    • Were there any recent changes made prior to this issue?
    • What is the make and model of your device?

    Meanwhile, we suggest performing the steps on this article
    on how to troubleshoot blue screen errors on Windows 10.

    We look forward to your response.

    Regards.
