Hey, why isn't this in the computer science section? I almost missed it!

 

The question doens't really make sense... a BSOD is the "blue screen of death" it is a MS (microsoft) invented screen which basically means your computer has serious issues!!!

 

the memory is dumped so that an analysis can be done to try and find out what caused the problem.

 

Very often it means you have to reinstal your OS (operating system) or format your HDD.

Try updating drivers. You may have a clue as to which one is the problem ie you buy a game and when you play it the graphics settings are changed and your current driver takes its bat home, bsod. So that would suggest a graphics driver update might help. I'm not a computer bod and this may not be your problem but I thought I should mention it as it has worked for me in all the circumstances that have given me a bsod.

Perhaps it isn't computer science.

That fact is exactly what I was questioning!
