Which of the following Windows OS symptoms indicates a critical stop error that immediately halts the operating system and displays a STOP code on a blue screen?
The blue screen of death (BSOD) is a STOP error. When Windows encounters a fatal fault in hardware, a driver, or core system files, it halts the OS and presents diagnostic information on a blue background so no further damage occurs. Low-memory warnings, certificate warnings, and slow profile loads may signal other issues but do not forcibly stop the operating system.
