Have you installed any new software lately?

I have an older laptop with Win XP that never had a BSOD until I bought a new camera and installed the camera software on it. Turns out the software uses more memory than my laptop can handle. When I would try to use the program I’d get the BSOD.
When I would put my SD card from the camera into the computer it would also try to start the camera software program and BSOD. I just uninstalled the program and everything is back to normal.

Other than that it could be some bad memory. If you google the error message, you might get some answers.

No new software whatsoever installed, on either the wife’s machine before it died, or on this one.
I’ll try googling the error message, thx.
