Aww,guys please help me :(
I'm freaking scared my computer is broke.
All began when I was checking my computer components just for fun(ControlPanel>System>DeviceManager),
Then I clicked in my Wireless card,and clicked the "Search for updates",it found some and it was installing them,at the same time I'v updated my video card,wich found some updates too and was installing them,
then bang my computers restarts,im like wtf?oh well,I just login into my Window accounts and it instantly restarts,been restarting for like 25 times,as soon as a I login into my Window account;So i'v decided to wait for tomorow(today),now its even worse,I open my computer,login into Window and bang Blue screen,over and over,the error is called "Bad_Pool_Reader"(thats wat it said on the blue screen),please help me =/
Im pretty sure its not a virus,something about when I was updating my CPU components,and reformatting would really be the last resort =)
-Thanks

Pretty sure your computer is broke. You're going to have to fix it.

A few minutes ago the blue screen popped up for about 2 seconds. Then it just restarted.

Might be the video drivers. Some drivers give some users BSoD. I Suggest you boot into safe mode and rollback to a previous video driver.

Or you can try this.

Finnaly,a person with solutions =P
Ok,could you explain me how to boot into safe mode?
About the link,they ask me to enter Registry Editor.exe,how am I suppose to get acess to that if I can even get in my windows account,unless I can go on Registry Editor with the BIOS(F2)

Da_Realest is correct, that is the smartest way to fix it, or you could go to Geek squad and have the check it out and say that your video, motherboard, and hard drive is fried and they can fix it for like $700.
