    LMAO

    Dude, i have a "BSOD Screen Saver".... i freaked my dad out because i installed it on his computer and then just distracted him for long enough for the screen saver to come on..... he almost crapped himself (he owns his own business and it was his work computer). I couldn't play along and just started cracking up... it took him about 30 seconds to figure out why i was laughing and then about 10 seconds to kick the crap out of me

    Well it may be dead....

    Just got the BSOD of death when at the instant i tried to post. Figured OK, ill start it back up and get the error code. Started it back up and as soon as i touched the mouse to go to the start menu BAMMM, BSOD again. I took a picture of it (attached).

    Then it wouldn't start up.. I tried twice and the hard drive spun but that's about it.

    Now (because of the error message on the BSOD) I disconnected by BT USB mouse and it seems to be starting up.

    .... im wondering if a recent windows update has issues with my Logitech bluetooth mouse...

    Got to the errors via the keyboard only and both errors are just the "unexpected shutdown" error.

    Going to plug in the mouse to see if it gives me the BSOD again... if it does, i'll shut it down and worry about it Monday after wheeling. Will have to see if Logitech drivers were updated recently... but i gotta finish getting packed for RC.

    It should of created a restore point at the windows update unless you turned that off. Or go to remove programs you can remove the last windows update. Or up date the mouse driver or revert to the previous mouse driver.

    there have been a few updates since i've gotten my first BSOD. So i'll probably do some research first online to see if anyone else has identified an issue with this mouse and the OS and then troubleshoot from there. I dont want to start reverting back and changing things without having a bit more data backing up the "mouse" issue... if it is an issue with the Logitech drivers, someone else out there must have the same problem.
