Last time I had the blue screen of death, it was run here there and everywhere, purchase a new hard drive and install drivers and get wireless working and now back as good as new

And how did I find the problem, had my local computer store look into it which cost me NOTHING!

Is it only happening when you open the game window? If so it could be a fault in your java installation which causes windows to crash and display the Blue Screen Of Death

Definately sounds like a Java fault that makes it crash. The link I posted above gives some info on how to diagnose the problem and fix it.

1.Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.

2.Select Restore my computer to an earlier time and click Next.

3.Pick an emboldened date from the calendar before your registry problems began, and select a restore point from the right-hand list. Click Next.

4.Click Next. Once the previous system settings have been restored your PC will restart.

5.Click OK when done.

But anything that you have downloaded, Applications, Photos, Music ect, will not be there if you downloaded them in the time period between where your restoring from, and today.

Pretty sure things like Photos and Music will still be there after a system restore, mine have never been affected by it, just installed programs and shortcuts and stuff.

Taken from Spinner's post about Java issues.

- Go to Start > control panel
- Add remove programs
- Remove all the java versions you see (there may be more than one).
- Clear browser histories including
downloaded program files.
- Reboot (even if you're not told to)
- Then visit http://www.java.com for a new,
clean, install.
