Ok i dont know if its because of a virus or something but we have this laptop that keeps getting the BSOD after anything we do. We format, reinstall, low level format, reinstall again. Virus scan, anything we can think of. It might be because of heat but it can be freezing out and it will do it. I cant figure out when it really does it. But before this happened the person said it got hacked into or got a virus and that is all i know before the issue. Any info you need ill be happy to share as long as i get some hint of the issue

It can be a hardware issue or software issue but I do not think its virus. BSOD is microsofts speciality of dealing with exceptional handling. Do you have two operating systems on your pc as microsoft doesnt like it most of the time as it wants you to be loyal to msft. I donno about a virus that will still be there after formatting

Heat wont be a problem because the laptop will shutdown without giving BSOD
