Thankfully, I don't ever recall running into any Blue Screen of Death errors before.
However, there is something that would come close, and this would be my computer suddenly shutting down after installing some software of sorts (I wish I were able to put my finger on its name, but unfortunately, I'm not), and not having much chance of turning it back on without performing a system restore.
At that time, I was relatively new to all this--although I was a bit of experienced Windows user, I've never had to go through with any of this trouble. Due to this, I was slightly afraid as to how I'd get around to this issue. Luckily, I was able to get through the problem eventually by following all steps that had been provided on the screen; things seemed to have been slightly more easy than expected.
