So I keep getting these blue screen errors of some ? like 0x00000116. I just bought my new Dell XPS last October and for this entire year it has been crashing. I have been searching for an explanation,but I do not see a clear cause or a way to fix it.Though I do notice that many are having the same issues around the web.Any idea what I can do to stop this annoying ? ?

theres a whole bunch of b.s.o.d.'s cuzzin (blue screen of death)
you'd literally have to google the exact error message and put in the make and model of your pc/lap top with it
most times its a windows issue .. please dont tell me you had automatic updates enabled -
a couple of things. you may have to re-install the windows software but that's gonna overwrite you're existing files. i know when mine was doing that i took my bad drive and put it in the secondary (slave) port. then put the new hard drive in the primary (master) port. i didn't lose my files on the old hard drive as i was still able to view the files in windows explorer. a lot of those messages are almost identical with either just a letter and/or digit changed. it could be a number of things. a software issue. not enough memory. important files may be missing. almost the simplest things can make your computer crash. good luck dude.

I had re-installed windows about 3 times. I have had previous dell computers before and this is the first time that I have had this issue.

It might be the one of you RAM is ? up. After the blue screen their should be some numbers with a message. google it....

Get a Mac.

Linux >>>>>Windows>>>>>Mac

I googled the error code before and no definitive solution came up.
I am studying to work in networking and most companies use PCs instead of Macs.Linux is more stable than Windows,but it is not open source and i hate the interface and UNIX variants in general.They are annoying to navigate. -
only other thing i can say is get another hard drive and make it your primary drive. might check your RAM to see if that is giving you problems. just to see take out one of the RAM and try and start the computer. it could be something small or big. try a couple of these links.

What you need to do is take out one of the RAM and run you PC for couple day and see what happens. matter of fact post the error code on the blue screen.
