Blue Screen of Death - when the Windows OS continually shows a blue screen and a reboot is required.
The blue screen of death is a rather terrifying display image containing white text on a blue background that is generated by Windows operating systems when the system has suddenly terminated with an error. The system is locked up and must be restarted. The blue screen may include some hexadecimal values from a core dump that may help determine what caused the crash.

This refers to a Windows error message that is shown on a screen with a blue background. In Windows NT, this type of message causes the computer to stop completely and is usually caused by improperly written hardware drivers or faulty hardware. Other BSODs can occur in different versions of Windows as well, but are not always as disastrous. Less frequently, black screens are referred to as well during a complete system crash. Buffer - This is a temporary location to store or group information in hardware or software. Buffers are used whenever data is received in sizes that may be different than the ideal size for the hardware or software that uses the buffer. For example, a 64-bit processor on a 16-bit bus may have a buffer to hold 16-bit requests until they equal 64-bits. Another use of buffers is to keep hardware from getting overwhelmed with information. In that scenario, you use a large buffer to hold data until a device or program is ready to receive it, instead of just pushing it onto a device that might not be ready. Buffers must be optimized in size to work efficiently for the purpose they are designed.
