Understanding Windows Errors
|
Summary
Windows and other critical
errors can occur when your Windows operating system becomes corrupted. Opening
programs will be slower and response times will lag. When you have multiple
applications running, you may experience crashes and freezes. There can be
numerous causes of this error including excessive startup entries, registry
errors, hardware/RAM decline, fragmented files and so on.

Windows Errors
A Windows error is an error
that happens when an unexpected condition occurs or when a desired operation
has failed. When you have an error in Windows, it may be critical and cause
your programs to freeze and crash or it may be seemingly harmless yet
annoying. |

Blue Screen of Death
A BSoD is displayed by
Windows operating system upon encountering a critical error, of a
non-recoverable nature, that causes the system to crash and is the error screen
displayed by the Microsoft Windows family of operating
systems |

Damaged DLLs
DLL's becoming
corrupt/damaged mostly caused by constantly installing and uninstalling
programs. This often means that DLL files will get overwritten by newer
versions when a new program is installed, for example. This causes problems for
other applications and programs that might still need the old version to
operate. Thus, these programs might malfunction and
crash. |

Freezing Computer
Computer hanging or freezing
occurs when either a program or the whole system ceases to respond to inputs.
In the most commonly encountered scenario, a program freezes and all windows
belonging to the frozen program become static. In most cases, the only way to
recover from a system freeze is to reboot the machine, usually by power cycling
with an on/off or reset button. |

Virus Damage
Once your computer has been
infected with a virus, it's no longer the same. After removing it with your
anti-virus software, you're often left with lingering side-effects.
Technically, your computer might no longer be infected, but that doesn't mean
it's error-free. Even simply removing a virus can actually harm your
system. |
