    Blue screen of death

    I�m getting a computer from a coworker for free. He says it has the blue screen of death and he doesn�t feel like paying to fix it, nor care because he stopped since he got a tablet.

    Is it possible to just be able to factory reset a computer with the blue screen of death or do I have to take extra bs steps to fix whatever issues it�s having prior to resetting?

    He isn�t the type of guy to do a bunch of downloads, but I�m 100 percent sure it�s loaded with malware from porn. Can you get bsod from stupid simple things or is this gonna be a serious task? He�s not technology guy.. I�ve taught him how to put contacts in his flip phone in 2018

    It should be as easy as reinstalling windows (if you don't care for the data it has now)
    Or you can go on the free route and install Linux on it

    I'm not sure what blue screen 100% is but I know that windows 10 doesnt require a disk, I've had to restore pcs before. As long as it wasn't a bootleg windows 10 I think you should be able reset it fine.

    well you should... i mean we're on a neopets cheating forum lmao, i doubt most of the users here pay for a windows license
    Do you know how to do a fresh windows install? I can guide you if you don't, it's pretty straightforward
