My laptop started crashing with BSOD 3 or more years ago. It had some strange problems, and different error codes. and i couldnt identify it because my computer knowledge wasnt that good. That still happens, i fully reinstalled Windows like 6 times and this BSOD happens every time, even after i reistalled Windows. After some time, my laptop started running slowly, and when i enter it, it takes some time to load. And new recent Windows Updates are not installing, because of some errors saying that "files are corrupted" (0x007002) and something like that. I guess it all started because of Updates. I need your help to fix that so this wont annoy me ever again (Note: my friends say that Roblox is crashing some apps some how and drivers are crashing too because of it.)

    Hi Daniil,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Please check to see if your PC is producing any minidump files, I will check those to see if they provide any insight into a potential cause of the system crashes.

    Open Windows File Explorer.

    Navigate to C:\Windows\Minidump

    Copy any minidump files onto your Desktop, then zip those up.

    Upload the zip file to the Cloud (OneDrive, DropBox... etc.), then choose to share those and get a share link.

    Then post the link here to the zip file, so we can take a look for you.
