Use System Restore. 

If your system recently 

started blue-screening, crashing, or if you believe 

you are affected by a virus, 

use System Restore

 to 

roll its system software back to a previous state. 

If this works, you’ll know that it’s likely a software 

problem.

To do a System Restore:

Right click the Start Menu > Go to Settings > 

Update & Security

Click “Recovery” > click “Get Started”

You will be prompted with two options:

Keep my files (Keeps software installed)

Remove everything (Factory Reset) – 

Recommended

Set Optimize Defaults.

 There may be a memory 

issue or overclocking of the unit, we’d like to 

confirm it is set to Optimize defaults to do this:

1.  Turn off the Gear unit

2.  Turn unit on, hold down the “Delete” key, 

this will direct you into the BIOS Settings

3.  Go to the “Save & Exit” tab

4.  Click/Arrow down to “Restore User 

Defaults”, click “Enter”

Boot Into Safe Mode. 

If your computer is 

blue-screening every time you turn it on, try 

booting into safe mode

. In safe mode, Windows 

loads only the essential drivers. If a driver you’ve 

installed is causing Windows to blue screen, it 

shouldn’t do so in safe mode. You can work on 

fixing the problem from safe mode. 

Check for Hardware Problems. 

Blue screens 

can be caused by faulty hardware in your 

computer. Try 

testing your computer’s memory for 

errors

 and 

checking its temperature to ensure that 

it isn’t overheating

. If that fails, you might need to 

test other hardware components.
