Hello

I have never encountered it before. Automatic reboot after BSOD i
unchecked, system logs are where they're supposed to be, but I keep o
getting that one bluescreen: if flashes for half a secod *and the
reboots*
I have absolutely no indication of any kind of error in the even
viewer (system log). Vista says it has recovered from an error or sth.
when I tell it to 'find a solution', all it tells me is that there was
problem with *some* hardware driver. Of course, doesn't telle which one
that would be too simple

What can I do to find out what's wrong, apart from having my D60 read
to make a photo of the disappearing BSOD

You could check your Device Manager to see if you have errors showing there.

I have... forgot to mention it.

I've noticed that it does not always reboot immeadetely - sometimes B
appears, then all LCD's are going blank (3 plus TV). And then... it ca
stay that way forever. It is not compeletely frozen, as the power butto
still works (ACPI)

It also has nothing to do with overheating - I've tried warming it u
(by disconnecting some fans) and cooling, by puting a BIG office fa
blowing inside the case. No change
