BlueScreen Screen Saver

The dreaded Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) is one of the worst crashes one can encounter. However, it is also a good source of fun and pranks, which is why BlueScreen Screen Saver is definitely worth looking at. As the name points out, this screensaver mimics a Blue Screen of Death. It is ideal if you are looking for a special screensaver to stand out in a crowd or if you wish to play a prank on someone.

The screensaver is offered free of charge and it works on numerous Windows versions. Like other screensavers, it comes as a single file, which you have to extract from a ZIP archive. The size of the file is less than one MB, so you can have the screensaver up and running in no time.

Once you extract the .scr file from its ZIP archive, you can right click it and select the Install option or you can double click the file to preview the screensaver. As you might expect, a Blue Screen of Death will appear once the screensaver starts. Of course, there is no need to panic or be tempted to throw the monitor against a wall in this particular case. You can press any key to stop the screensaver and return to normal.

If you actually read BSOD errors from time to time, you will notice that BlueScreen Screen Saver displays a different error each time it runs. Additionally, the screensaver will simulate a startup screen as well, to create the illusion of a system reboot. The best part is that BlueScreen Screen Saver will show a different type of Blue Screen, depending on the used Windows version.

BlueScreen Screen Saver is perfect if you want a unique screensaver or to play a prank on a friend or co-worker.
