Hi VIOREL33.

I don't think there is a simple answer. You can try the troubleshooting steps in this Microsoft Answers link: -

Unfortunately, there are quite a few things to try!

Are there any other messages on the blue screen that may help narrow the field? What are you running when it crashes? Does the Vaio get hot before crashing?

Hi Viorel. Sometimes its a memory issue. Try to unplug and replug your RAM stick. Hope it helps.
