Does the blue screen of death mean that all data on the computer is unable to be recovered? A friend of mine here in Germany just experienced it.

It should just mean you have to restart it and should be prepared to experience it again in the near future. Tell your friend he probably just sneezed too hard.

Sorry I missed you call. BSOD can mean many things. If it happens again, or she's stuck on the screen, write down the error code. It should be something like 0x40400404040 0x400040444...

From there we can solve the problem.

Yep. http://northtechs.com/blscreen.htm

It just helps to find out if it was a problem with Windows, or if you have a bard part. I guess actually making the error code in English would be a bit too advanced for Microsoft.

Error codes aren't too bad compared to POST errors.

Thanks for y'all's help. I'll pass the info along to her, but she has already taken it to a German computer tech (hopefully a legit one). We'll see how it goes.
