Dear Burton Tag. These are some causes as well as fixes for this error.

  • First and most important thing to ask yourself is that, what you did recently with your machine? New software installation, hardware upgrade, driver update or system update? These changes may have caused the BSoD. Simply undo recent changes by starting windows using last known good configuration, restoring system to a previous setting or by rolling back device drivers.
  • Verify if there is enough free space on OS installation partition.
  • Some viruses can also cause this problem. So, it will be good idea to scan your system.
  • Make sure that OS is updated to latest service packs and other updates.
  • Sometimes outdated device drivers can cause this problem, so try updating hardware drivers.
  • Sometimes changing hardware settings can cause this problem. So, try reverting these settings to default.
  • If BIOS settings have been customized, try loading the default ones. Also in some cases Updating BIOS can rectify this problem.
  • Check if all the cables, cards and other devices are placed accurately.

I hope this will help.
