The blue screen of death is incredibly frustrating. Windows gives you an option called Safe Mode for whenever there is an internal Windows problem on your PC that needs to be resolved such as the blue screen of death or the display driver setting resolution is so low that you cannot navigate through Windows to alter the settings to a higher resolution. Safe mode allows the user to fix problems without these problems loading up.

- Reboot your PC. If you can't restart normally by going to the start up menu, then hold in the power button for a few minutes. If you need to enter safe mode but can restart normally, do so.
- After the hard drive mounts but BEFORE Windows starts to load, Press the F8 key repeatedly on your Keyboard. If you do not get the menu with the safe mode option, then you did not begin tapping F8 soon enough. Try again.
- There will be a menu that will appear. Select Safe Mode. Once you are in safe mode, you can fix what needs to be fixed without the problems loading up on your machine.
