what was the blue screen reference code?

0x000000_ _ <--last two letters (depending on the type of error)

then you will have the address it failed on 0x000000xx, 0x000000xx, 0x000000xx

the first code that apears like at the top is the biggest identifier, and any text that comes with that like page_fault......

If you re-installed windows and you are still getting a blue screen a few things could be going on.

Your hardware is failing (bad memory, hard drive, or motherboard). Memory and hard drive can be replaced at a good price. Motherboard is a little more difficult option.

If you plan on installing Linux, you will probably run into issues tryinig to load the operating system or programs crashing on you.
