Blue screen error in Vista (yes!!)

Hi,

I upgraded to Vista from xppro and all went well till I had to power it
down. I noticed the blue screen ( L) which comes up just before power is cut
off. Then the pc restarts by it self and at log in a message informs me of
an abnormal power off (??). The error is bluescreen and starts to look for a
solution but never gets back to me with a solution. What do I do? Should I
do a clean install? I'm lost.

TIA,

Ana

Yes... I call that an improvement...

I want my Blue Screen of Death (BSoD)
to be able to slant in 3d, like the flip 3d effect,
me to give it another tint, to have it in aero border....
or make it animated, wavy with patterns like motion desktop....

This is in compliance with all your other vista improvements over XP!

I had the same issue with an early ATI video driver. Only would do it
on shutdown. My video card is an ATI X1950PRO 512mb and I had problems
when using the boxed drivers. New drivers from ATI's site resolved it.

Do people actually come here to bash Windows? Wow, they must have quite an
exciting life that they have nothing else to do. Imho if you reply to
someone try to help them.

For the love of god. Even you know thats a driver problem. Stop trolling and
get lost!

To offer some REAL help, clean install would be advised, always!
