Stop error messages are supposed to contain the cause of the problem, but unless you’re a techie then it’ll mean very little to you. Still, a trained PC repairer may have to run a few diagnostics before they could find the answer to the problem. By far the most reoccurring reason for stop error codes, as well as sluggish PC performance
, is a poorly kept registry.

A brand new PC’s registry can become overcrowded in a short space of time. You should think of your PC’s registry as the gatekeeper. Important configuration settings are kept in your registry folder for the system setup, any hardware and software installed, and your system profile and preferences. It also keeps tabs on what you’ve been doing on your computer, like what files and folders you’ve created, installations of software and hardware and internet browsing.

Messy program reinstallations and removals can leave unused or duplicate registries, even if you use the ‘Add or Remove Programs’ function in control panel. Quite quickly the registry folder gets overcrowded with these redundant entries, and begins to take a toll on the performance of your PC. Even the difference between a brand new computer and one that’s just had a few months use is noticeable in performance for some users.

Additionally, there are other threats that can cause serious damage to the registry such as viruses, adware and spyware. Having antivirus software installed on your computer doesn’t guarantee absolute protection but it is much better than having nothing. Make sure that your antivirus software is regularly updated. Windows firewall setting should automatically on, but check that this is the case for more protection.

Corrupted registries can cause blue screen errors as well a host or other error messages. Your computer’s OS might also be made unstable as a result, causing screen freezes and other problems. When a blue screen crash occurs any unsaved data may be damaged or lost. In order to increase your computer’s performance and speed, the registry needs to be cleaned. Be aware that whatever changes that you do make will be permanent and there’s no going back once they’re made. Before you go ahead and make changes, save a copy of the original registry first, in case something goes wrong.

Making the wrong changes to the registry can cause irreversible damage to the OS. If you plan to edit the registry, you should save anything that you want to keep on your computer on an external hard drive. However, at least make sure you do some research on how to do so before you begin. It’s best to get someone who’s qualified or knows how to fix computers. Alternatively there are tools out there that can scan and repair computer systems automatically.
