blue screen- hard drive problem?
Hi all,
I recently had a number of blue screen issues on my laptop. Reinstalled operating system (windows xp), but am still getting blue screens. This time though, the blue screens are not appearing for long enough for me to see what they say- instead they appear and then the computer reboots itself. I think this means it's a hard drive problem, but as I've had 2 hard drives in 3 years, I'm wondering if it could be something else that's causing the problem. Any thoughts? Thank you.
