I've had two blue screens in two days. I lost nothing of importance either time, but it's worrying. I've just set the memory thingy on my wordprocessor to update it every 5 mins. Back to the old days perhaps.

Oddly enough, my laptop hasn't (yet) experienced a similar problem. The only difference is Pro on desk and Home on laptop.

No similar problems on Linux Mint.

The pigging flap top just sat and sat, after several hours, it sprang into life OK.

Wouldn't happen so much if they had to pay compensation

Used to sit and watch Windows 7 fresh installs updating for several hours

This is good for avoiding the loss of typed text, it saves on the fly (saves as you type) and is free
