enabling the blue screen of death in winxp?

sounds like a stupid question, but like when there is a system error and windows has to reboot, it shows a blue screen describing the error and such... I disabled that a while ago and it just reboots without showing that error page. How do I enable it again?

Right click my computer, properties, advanced, startup and recovery, uncheck the 'automatically restart' checkbox.

:) thanks

Why would one want the blue screen of death!

I am sooo glad that I have never had a blue screen on my home computer ever...:D

Blue Screen Of Death ;)

I was joking NoteMe, and still, I think yuo're dead:D you must be, it cant be anyother way

Nope it is true. My machine has not crached the last 1 year and 8 months. And it's more or less on 24/7....just turning it off when I have girls sleeping over...and that is not very often...:D....J/K.....

hehe thats good. Mine crashes because of RAM:( I have to get some Crucial brand ram I guess. My win2k3 machine never crashed too;)

Umm btw NoteMe what os are you running on that? cuz even though winxp didnt usually crash on my older computer, explorer.exe always used to crash

I am using Win2K. I have ECC REG memory...:D....guess that helps a bit....;)

I would want the BSOD. As opposed to the computer just rebooting.

Because then I wouldn't know if it was rebooting due to an error, or if I have overheating, a bad power supply...who knows?

And sometimes, you can escape a reboot when you get a BSOD and save your work.

If it just restarts itself, you can't.

oh, this occurs when it reebots, i thought it replaced the "Microsoft has performed an illegal operation" box.:blush:
