Seriously, now. I've got a half-dozen Win 7 boxes (a few on metal, the rest VMs) at home. None have ever BSOD'ed.

These days you have to try pretty damn hard, or do something really stupid, to BSOD.

Last time I saw BSOD was an XP box that served as a field data acquisition computer. Read that as “we beat the crap outa that thing ...” BSOD was caused by a bad SIMM.

I heard you have to run Windows 10 and that it’s awful?

I accidentally figured out how to BSoD any version of Windows:

1. Don’t change the VM settings from the default.
2. Set up a VHD to auto-mount at startup.
3. Dismount said VHD during your session.
