BSOD another question

So these are caused by software issues? If I am loading my own OS on this
computer, which comes with no OS, I should have no more problems with BSOD
than with any other computer? Are these correct assumptions or am I not
following what you folks said?

I appreciate all the help, I can pick up an extra computer real cheap but
all the offered units have had BSOD, probably several times as they are no
longer in the state network. THANKS
DMSL

Re: BSOD another question

Almost any glitch can cause a BSOD...
I recently "fixed" a problem with my computer. Kept getting BSOD's, CTD's
(crash to desktop), freezes, hang-ups, sluggishness, etc etc etc. Even after
re-formnatting and logically removing my second drive (which I think messed
up and corrupted alot of files (but no virus, ran a virus check and
nothing)) I still had problems. I redid the machine again, using my restore
disk and now have no problems but I haven't put my old files that I backed
up off the failed drive on there yet. So I guess this begs the question, can
a file corrupted by a bad drive cause problems even if it's not a virus?
