Basically when I went on and click troubleshoot "Display Aero desktop Effects" my laptop displayed the blue screen of death and the laptop turned off itself, so I had to press the power button to turn it on.

I had found out the problem which caused it which was the anti-virus software activating when the troubleshoot was scanning the laptop so I disabled it for a short time and it finally worked when I clicked "Display Aero Desktop Effects",

My question is:Can the blue screen of death damage the laptop such as hardware and software in this situation.

Could pressing the power button on when the laptop has just switched off damage the laptop? (Not sure if this is called a cold-boot or hard boot)

The laptop is fairly new so I'm just worried.

I had had that blue show in the previous! in case you're able to many courses and internet open at as quickly as and not adequate RAM there may be a weigh down on the equipment, there are maximum of ingredient occurring that the pc don't understand what to do. in case you're at 1G of RAM maximum possibly will ensue. improve to 3 or 4 Gs of Ram and you will have not got any problem! it additionally relies upon on the climate condition if that is too warm that is going to in all risk do this too. Or it might desire to be Vista which isn't so great and there are maximum of incompatibilities with vista with courses and internet websites!

The Blue Screen of Death, also knows as a "stop code" is a mechanism designed by Microsoft to prevent damage to your computer. The basic idea is that as soon as windows detects something not working as it should, it shuts down everything in an attempt to prevent damage.



Blue screens are only dangerous if you don't know what caused them, as that can be a sign of damage to your system.

No, BSOD will not physically damage your laptop.

It's not advisable to rapidly turn on after any electronic device just being turned off, wait for at least 5 seconds.
