    BSOD on and off screen too fast to read


    Twice in the last week I've gotten a BSOD which remained visible for only a few seconds, too short a time for me to read what it said other than "If this is the first time..." I tried a system restore but it did not work

    Much of the information is missing from your upload and there is only one dump file in there that is months old
    Please run the SF tool again and wait for all the files to be collected and ensure your machine is set to configure small dumps as per the bsod info

    Just for reference you can stop the auto-reboot by doing this:
    Computer -> System Properties -> advanced system settings -> startup and recovery settings -> untick "automatically restart" and click ok.

    There is only one dump file in there dated from June so is not relevant
    Please have a read of this Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions and try option two
    or you can manually check %system root%\windows\minidump for dump files

    Opyion 2


    Could not get option 2 to work - perhaps because I have not identified myself as the systems administrator? (Don't know how.)

    Assuming I get the mimnidumps manually, what then?
