Random Blue Screen BSOD


Installed new hardware ? or Built a new computer but you keep getting random blue screens? Wether its Windows 7 or Windows XP BSOD Blue Screen of Death STOP: 0x000000F4 or something else, its worth a try. Here's one thing you should try which has worked for me numerous times.

Unplug the Computer, open up your case and remove the CMOS battery(round flat silver battery). Wait 3 seconds then put back in the battery and plug in your computer. Just as Windows sometimes has trouble detecting hardware, so does the BIOS. So you may need to set your date/time in your BIOS again, but at least no more blue screens.
