Hello,
My laptop screen just went blue and it turned off and later when it was powering up it did system restore.
While i was watching a TV ad, i was told Virus can cause this effect.
All this time i was thinking a blue screen would mean my laptop is near its end of life and mother board will fail soon.
Could you please suggest if i should take any action on this.
Thank you. I dont want to send another $700 for a laptop again.
Thank you,
Vineet.

If you are using Windows 7/Vista, you will need to right click and choose "Run as Administrator" to run the tools we will use.
Let's try to determine the BSOD error. Please do the following:
Click on Start then Control Panel.
Click on Switch to Classic View.
In the System Properties window, click on the Advanced tab.
Locate the Startup and Recovery area and click on the Settings button.
In the Startup and Recovery window, locate and uncheck the check box next to Automatically restart.
Click OK in the Startup and Recovery window.
Click OK in the System Properties window.
From now on, when a problem causes a BSOD or another major error that halts the system, the PC will not automatically reboot. Rebooting manually will be necessary.
Double click DDS icon to run the tool (may take up to 3 minutes to run)
When done, DDS.txt will open.
After a few moments, attach.txt will open in a second window.
Save both reports to your desktop.
