Windows XP blue screen details and Solutions

Who has never seen the Windows XP blue screen? There may be many people who often encounter this problem. How is the XP blue screen caused? We can explain the causes of the blue screen phenomenon from the soft and hard aspects. In terms of hardware, over-frequency is a major cause of blue screen. Excessive overclock, due to overload operations, resulting in too many internal operations, so that the cpu is overheated, resulting in System Operation errors. If you want to exceed the frequency, and do not want to appear blue screen, only do a good job of cooling measures, change a strong fan, plus some silica gel and other heat dissipation materials will be much better. In addition, a proper amount of overclocking or no overclocking is also one of the solutions. It depends on your choice to ensure stability or speed.

If the memory is physically damaged and the memory is not compatible with other hardware, a blue screen is also generated. The solution is to change the memory.

If you have noticed, you will find that when the optical drive is opened abnormally, it will also lead to a blue screen. This problem does not affect the normal operation of the system. You only need to attach the disc or Press ESC.

Another common cause of hardware blue screen is system hardware conflicts. In practice, we often encounter settings conflicts between sound cards or display cards. In "Control Panel"> "system"> "device management", check whether a device with a yellow question mark or exclamation mark exists. If yes, try to delete the device and restart the computer, it is automatically adjusted by Windows and generally solves the problem. If not, you can manually adjust or upgrade the corresponding driver.

Poor components are another culprit in the appearance of blue screens on computers. When a few unscrupulous merchants assemble compatible computers for customers, they use poor-quality boards, memory, and some even sell fake boards and old CPUs and memory. This will make the machines unstable during operation, A crash is inevitable. Therefore, users should be wary of this aspect when purchasing a machine. Please be familiar with your selection and use some new tools and software to test your computer, continuous machine testing (for example, 72 hours) for a long time, and try to maintain the minimum warranty period.

From the software perspective, virus or hacker attacks, registry errors or damages, too many programs are loaded at startup, version conflicts, insufficient virtual memory, system multi-task operation errors, dynamic link library file loss, excessive Fonts files, too many loaded scheduled tasks, conflicts between system resources, or resource depletion will produce a blue screen. In addition, blue screens are also prone to software and hardware conflicts. If you understand the reason why the blue screen appears "soft", you can remedy the problem.

Let's take a look at the alternative tricks for eliminating the blue screen:

When a Windows XP Error occurs, a blue screen may appear, which is common to everyone. But can it be a "blue" screen, for example, a "red" screen or a "green" screen? Of course! The method is as follows:

1. First, A blue screen error occurs: you only need to copy A file from disk A or the optical drive to your hard drive (note that this file cannot be too small ), during the copy process, take the floppy disk or CD out, and Windows will immediately change the face-the blue screen will appear immediately, then press Esc to return to the Windows status.

2. Click →→→→, enter msconfig.exe in the dialog box that appears, and press enter to bring up the System Configuration Utility. Click the "System. ini" tab.

3. Locate [ENH], click "new", and add "MessageBackColor =" under it (note that no quotation marks are entered). The equal sign is followed by a hexadecimal number 0 ~ F. You can enter it as needed to indicate the background color of the incorrect image.

4. In the same way, add a new string "MessageTextColor =" under [effecenh] (note that no quotation marks are entered). The equal sign is followed by a hexadecimal number 0 ~ F. You can enter it as needed. It indicates the text color of the incorrect image.

5. Now, restart the computer and try again to see if the test is successful: Repeat Step 1 to see if the blue screen has been replaced? Success!

Note: This method does not really change the stability of Vulnerable Windows. It only changes the background color and text color when a Windows error occurs. From this perspective, this is also a DIY behavior.

1. close temporarily unused programs in time

Some programs can be closed to save resources even if they are used later. If you want to know the resource usage of a program, you can view the resource status in Windows. Compare the resource usage when the program is opened and closed to understand the resource usage of the program. Method: Open "program> attachment> System Tools> Resource Status" in the "Start" menu, and the resource status icon appears in the system tray area. Right-click the icon and select the "details" column to view the current resource usage of the system.

Ii. Reduce Unnecessary font files

Font files occupy a large amount of system resources, boot is slow, and occupy a lot of hard disk space. Therefore, reduce unnecessary font files as much as possible. However, if the font file is deleted incorrectly, it may make Windows abnormal. Therefore, you can use the following method to "steal a column" (you can install a font file without occupying a large amount of disk space): First open the font folder (such as F: zk ), select All TrueType font files, right-click them, and drag them to the C: WindowsFonts folder. In the displayed menu, select "Create a shortcut at the current position ", in this way, you can create a shortcut for font files under the font folder of the system. When you need to use these font files, you only need to insert the font disc and retrieve it if you do not need it.

3. Delete useless DLL files

There are many Dll files in the System subdirectory of the Windows operating System. These files may be shared by many files, but none of them need to be used. That is to say, these files are useless, you can delete it to avoid occupying hard disk space and increase startup speed. However, to prevent accidental deletion of files, especially important core link files, we can use tool software such as "Super Rabbit" to delete useless DLL files. This prevents accidental deletion of files.

4. Organize and optimize the Registry

After Windows is started, the system needs to read the relevant information in the Registry and store it in RAM (memory). Most of the time Windows is started on. In addition, the huge registry also affects system stability. Therefore, it is necessary to organize and optimize the registry. For registry optimization, you can use software such as Windows optimization master. After you click "register information cleanup"> "scan" as a Windows optimization master, the software will automatically clean up the garbage in the Registry for you. After the scan, a menu will pop up asking you to choose whether to back up the registry, we recommend that you select backup and click "clear" after backup.

5. Frequent System Maintenance

If you have installed too many games, too many application software, and too many old materials in the system, your computer will be slower and slower, and the system resources will be fewer and fewer. Therefore, it is best to perform comprehensive maintenance on the computer at intervals. Click "start"> "program"> "attachment"> "System Tools"> "maintenance wizard", and then click "OK" to perform comprehensive maintenance on the computer, this will keep your computer in the best state. It is best to perform "disk fragmentation" every two weeks for a hard disk, which will significantly speed up program startup. Click "System Tools"> "disk fragmentation program. Note that the system disk must be organized when disk fragments are sorted, so as to speed up the startup sequence of Windows.

6. Expand the virtual memory capacity

If your hard disk is large enough, open "system" in "Control Panel" and enable "Virtual Memory" in "performance" options ", select "user-designated virtual memory Settings" to point to a hard disk that is rarely used, and set the maximum and minimum values to a fixed value, which is about twice the physical memory size. In this way, when using a hard disk, the virtual memory does not have to accommodate its sudden big and small differences, but uses a fixed space as the virtual memory to speed up access. It is best to set the virtual memory after "disk fragment", so that the virtual memory is not in a continuous, non-fragment file space, can better play a role.

7. Reduce shortcuts on the desktop and regularly and irregularly clear the Start Menu

The shortcut icon and the project in the Start Menu are large users who consume the GDI resources and USER resources, reducing Desktop shortcuts and keeping a clean, orderly, and concise Start Menu is another important way to save resources. You need to delete unnecessary Desktop shortcuts. You can select one option based on the Operation habits of the Desktop shortcuts icon and the items that are repeated in the sub-menu of the program under the Start menu, and the other can be deleted; organize programs of the same type into a folder to reduce the size of the Start Menu. For example, you can organize all Office components to a folder Office, and organize Internet Explorer, Internet News, Outlook Express, microsoft Netmeeting, and so on to an Internet folder.

8. Remove the running of "scheduled tasks"

In general, we will not use it, but most maintenance tasks that it can execute can be run manually. If you remove the "scheduled task" operation, at least 2% of system resources can be saved. By double-clicking the scheduled task icon, select the "advanced" menu in the pop-up window, and click "terminate execution plan task.

9. In a Windows Graphical environment, there is no need to load the MS-DOS driver of the sound card.

10. Pay attention to the running software version

Uninstall the later version before installing the later version. In addition, some applications need to call the dynamic link library DLL of a specific version. If the old version of DLL overwrites the new version of DLL or deletes the application, if a useful DLL file is deleted by mistake, the call may fail, resulting in a "blue screen ". Try again.

11. Pay attention to hacker programs such as method Trojans

When surfing the Internet, do not expose your IP address, do not offend people, so as not to be attacked by hackers. In addition, upgrade your virus database in time and regularly check whether there is a virus in the system, the newly downloaded software should be thoroughly checked to prevent viruses or Trojans.

12. Last move:

If a variety of optimization methods are used, the system resources of the local machine are all below 85%. We recommend that you reinstall the system!
