A
Blue screen of Death (BSOD) is known as the STOP error. When Windows
suffers from a serious error of non-recoverable nature, it stops
immediately so as to prevent damage to the data or hardware. STOP error
includes a STOP code which can be used to diagnose and possibly fix the
problem.
List of few BSOD errors are given below
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stop 0x000000CE or DRIVER_UNLOADED_WITHOUT_CANCELLING_PENDING_OPERATIONS
It indicates that before exiting, a driver failed to cancel pending operations.
Fix
----
It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system
device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP
message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the
issue.
Stop 0×00000050 or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
------------------------------------------------------------------
This indicates that requested data was not in the memory. It happens when a reference to an invalid system memory address is done. Defective memory or incompatible software might cause this error.
Fix
-----
If hardware is added recently, remove and replace it to determine if it was contributing to the problem or not.
If a faulty driver/system service is installed. Always use updated drivers and software to avoid this error.
Stop 0x0000009F or DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
---------------------------------------------------------------
This indicates that a driver is in an inconsistent power state.
Fix
-----
It can occur after installing faulty applications/drivers/system services. We need to uninstall the particular application (name is mentioned in the STOP message)/ roll back the particular driver/ use updated version of the software.
Stop 0xBE or ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
It indicates that a driver has attempted to write to read-only memory
Fix
----
It occurs because of installation of a faulty device driver/system services/firmware. Try to use updated version of software to resolve this problem. If the driver name is mentioned in the STOP message, we have to remove the driver or have to use a possible update of it.
Stop 0X0000002E or DATA_BUS_ERROR
-----------------------------------------------
It indicates a system memory parity error. It is caused due to defective or failed RAM/incompatibility of memory hardware. Also when a device driver attempts to access an address in the range of 0x8xxxxxxx that does not exist, this error occurs. It can also indicate that virus or some other problem caused hard disk damage.
Fix
----
This error is mainly due to defective/malfunctioning memory hardware like memory modules, video adapter RAM. Remove and replace the hardware to find out its contribution to the error.
Hard Disk corruption is also a cause of this problem
Cracks, scratches or defective component on the motherboard can also cause this problem. Repair the motherboard.
It can also happen due to installation of faulty drivers or system services. If file name is provided in the error code, remove that driver. Also use updated version of software’s.
Stop 0x000000D1 or Driver_IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
------------------------------------------------------------------
It indicates that the system has attempted for an access to a page able memory by using a kernel process IQRL that was too high. Improper addresses used by driver’s causes this error.
Fix
-----
It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the issue.
Stop 0x000000EA or THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER
-------------------------------------------------------------------
It is caused by a display driver making the system to pause indefinitely. Over here the display driver waits for the video hardware to enter an idle state. All this indicate a hardware problem with the video driver.
Fix
-----
It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the issue.
I hope this post has helped you in understanding all about different types of BSOD errors and its’ fixes. So please give your suggestions and comments so that it can be improved more.

![Photo: Customize your Browser Home Page to Look like Windows 8
=======================================
Bored looking at the same default home page whenever your browser starts? Then try "EIGHT", a browser start screen inspired from Windows 8's tiled interface. It is basically a web page created using HTML, CSS and jQuery. It shows website shortcuts as tiles which when clicked open the associated URLs. It's also got a search bar right in the page itself.
Not only EIGHT looks awesome, it is customizable too. You can replace the shortcuts with your own favorite sites, you can change the default search engine, you can customize the background color and you can even use a wallpaper as background. EIGHT is compatible with all the major browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Internet Explorer).
To use it, first download the ZIP file from here "www.deviantart.com/download/212847573/eight___start_page___update_by_flatmo1-d3iq28l.zip" and extract the folder contained in it somewhere on your hard drive. Navigate to the folder (usually named "EIGHT-firefox start page+config") and open the “index.htm” with your preferred web browser. Close all other opened tabs before you continue.
Mozilla Firefox Users :
--------------------------
Click on the orange Firefox button and choose "Options". Under the "General" tab select “Show my home page” from “When Firefox starts“ and click the "Use Current Pages" button. Press [enter].
Google Chrome Users :
----------------------------
Copy the URL from the address bar. Click on the "wrench" button and select "Options". Choose "Open the following pages:" under "On startup" and in the "New tab" field paste the URL you copied earlier. Also, select "Open this page" from "Home page" and paste the same URL in its field. Close the tab and reload.
Other Browser Users : Follow similar steps as mentioned above.
Customizing EIGHT :
-------------------------
To customize EIGHT, again navigate to "EIGHT-firefox start page+config" and run "config.htm". Modify the shortcuts and texts as per your preference and click "Generate settings file". Copy the entire code. Now open "source.js" (also present in "EIGHT-firefox start page+config" folder) with notepad, replace the original texts with the copied text. Save the file.
Note : If you wish to change any pre-defined website shortcut with a new one, first paste the website logo in the "thumbs" folder. Now run "config.htm", click on the shortcut tile you wish to replace and provide title and URL of the website along with the name of the website logo.
