I have seen this several times. It has to do with your startup and
recovery settings. Assuming you are running W2K you go to the advanced
tab of system properties. Then click the Startup and Recovery button. In
there you can set options related to "System Failure". If you set it to
not write a dump file and to automatically reboot the BSOD will display
for about half a second then the machine will reboot. If you have it set
to automatically reboot and write a memory dump it will take a minute
depending on how big the dump is.

 

If you just uncheck the "Automatically Reboot" checkbox under system
failure it should stay on the blue screen until someone reboots it.

Subject: [THIN] Rolling blue screen of death

 

Has anyone else experience the rolling blue screen of death stop
message?  The screen rolls without being able to read the stop message.
Everyone I have talked too has said they have never heard of this issue.
How about all of you? 

Thank you in advance.

Jay
