| Post subject: | Windows 8 pro crash after deinstall |
Hi, i use windows 8 pro. I used an upgrade from windows 7. My wife asked me to do something about the metro style of windows 8 since she simply can't find stuff she knows is on the pc. I game a lot and have game on the system called Runes of Magic. So, yesterday, i installed classic shell: looked good, exactly what my wife needed. Fidled with some skins etc, all nice. Then i went on to play the game and after just a few minutes in game my complete system crashed with a blue screen of death (with the sad smiley). This never happened before. Anyways, i thought i best give it the benefit of the doubt, so i tried again, crashed again and did it once more for good measure and crashed again. I then "quited" the classic shell before starting the game. So i don't have the logo as start button anymore, but the system still crashes. Well, who knows, maybe the classic shell and this game just don't go together, stuff happens. So i decide to de-install classic shell and reboot after that (it said it needed to to completely remove all changes). However, the system still keeps crashing after just a few min's ingame. The installation of the game itself didnt change and i haven't installed anything else in the last few days. So my question is really, could it be that the de-install left something behind that my system can't handle ok? Is there anything i can try to get this to work again next to a complete re-install? |

Doesn't seem like your BSOD is related to Classic Shell. It doesn't mess with the Windows settings and doesn't leave any code behind after uninstall. |

False issue, can be closed: It was my cpu fan that somehow got loose (one of the bracket pin's was broken). That way the cpu fan came a few mm from the cpu, meaning that didnt cool anymore, causing crashes. Was a pain to find. Anyways: hardware trouble, not software  Sorry for the inconvenience. |
