System Error Codes

System error codes are exhibited after receiving certain computer errors within your Windows operating system and software applications.

Unfortunately, in numerous cases you may merely be shown an error code number with no indication of what the error code really implies! In order to trouble-shoot the error, it is essential to know what a system error code stands for.

Device Manager Error Codes

Windows Device Manager displays its own special type of error codes and error messages named Device Manager error codes. The Windows Device Manager displays error codes when your pc experiences device driver errors, system resource conflicts, or other hardware problems.

"STOP" Error Codes

STOP errors (Blue Screen of Death) occur when Windows receives a critical error and must "stop" completely to avert harm to the computer.

STOP errors give you no choice but to restart the computer, therefore troubleshooting can be quite challenging. Luckily, most STOP errors include a STOP code which can be used to explore the cause of the STOP error.
