Basically, two days ago, while I was using the computer, all of a sudden, a BSOD appeared and the computer immediately restarted. When the computer finishes booting up, after a minute or two, the BSOD appears again, and the computer restarts again. It works perfectly fine when I do Safe Mode, so I am thinking it is some sort of software failure. What should I do?

Probably bad Third party drivers BUT that definitely is a guess. To start download BlueScreenViewer. If it prompts you to enable debugging toolsI would use the standalone option. All this is to "Humanize" the robot talk of BSOD and often the reports in plain English tell you whats wrong.

Post the log which is a translated version of a .dmp file that is generated on every system crash (bsod). I'm a newb but there is a lot of smart experienced people on this forum that could help. :thumbsup:

Hi first of all open a cmd prompt as administrator and type sfc /scannow. This will scan your windows system files and attempt to repair. If you get a restart with bsod, try from safe mode. make sure windows is updated, and check device manager and see if anything is x'ed or flaged (after the scan). Update any drivers that are out of date. Hopefully someone can come along and help on this thread as i am new, and am just giving you advice from my research- Take with a grain of salt.
