bluescreens
Fatal computer errors
Bluescreens refers to the "blue screen of death"—a fatal system error on Windows computers that displays white text on a blue background, requiring a restart.
When a computer bluescreens, it has crashed: My laptop bluescreened right before I saved the document.
The term also works as a noun: I've had three bluescreens this week.
