hi thanks for the reply. could you please tell me WHAT is causing the constant bsod?? could it be something as simple as the power cord, if so, where do I get another one?
I really dont like windows 8, there was too much problem with it and didnt last long. when I purchased this computer there was windows vista on it, then I upgraded to windows 7 when I had to. I didnt want to go to windows 10 but....you know. but NEVER did I have windows 8 on here!
windows 7 I think still has its info on this computer, when I look at backup it says windows 7 backup, so assume its still on this computer and hasnt totally been deleted. I think I still have the windows 7 installation disk. BUT I realize that 7 is no longer supported either with security, THAT concerns me greatly due to all the financial things I do here.
so do you still suggest installing the win 8? thanks for your help and patience.

lol, have a pic of the blue screen on my phone, but senior dummy that I am, I cant get it to the computer! when I plug in the cord from phone to computer, its not bringing up the thing I need to follow thru directions to transfer to computer. also tried taking a pic with a camera, but when using the camera card in the computer, there is nothing on it! wow, I should just give it all up....
anyway, let me see what I can do and will get you a pic as soon as I figure it out. thanks for your help!
