Blue Screen?!
   

Well, I was playing Morrowind last night and I was just mindidng my own business when this blue screen just popped up. I had been playing for about four hours and I was busy doing all sorts of stuff. Well the screen turned blue, but I could still move. I could have saved it there and maybe it would have turned back to normal, but I'll never know. Luckily I only lost about 30-40 minutes of gameplay. Has this ever happened to any of you?

Nay, probably nothing. However if the problem happen again or persists - something definitely wrong.

Well, this is actually the first time the game ever froze, hopefully it won't start a new trend.

Nah I was just kiddin..I only hit it about every 5-10 mins or If I know I am about to do something risky =D And since my game hardly ever crashes...I feel fairly safe...I don't know that my game has ever crashed actually.

Preemptive "SHHH!" coming your way, junior.

LOL @ Shifter

I had something similar happen to me when I played Max Payne.

I was about to get killed so I hit the QuickLoad button, but I guess I accidentily hit the QuickSave button (Heh it was dark, not that I ever look at my keyboard:)). I was like . The only save method I ever used in that game was Quicksave. Luckily after I loaded the game I was able to hit bullet time and blast the badie to hezmana.

Ohh uhhh, no I never had a blue screen like that when I was playing MW. There, my post isn't entirely off topic.

It would be worst. Sometimes i hit the save button just in time the baddies open fire on me; so everytime i try to reload the game i still end up getting shoot at....

Okay. I'll have to look into it.
