Can you post the stop error? Or the log?

1) Use Windows Explorer to access the C:\Windows\LogFiles\Watchdog folder.
2) Locate and right-click the most recently dated .WDL file.
3) Select the Open command from the context menu.
4) In the Windows dialog box, choose the Select The Program From A List option and click OK.
5) When you see the Open With dialog box, select Notepad and click OK.

Most BSODs are driver related? Are your drivers up to date?

All my drivers are up to date, and the LogFiles folder doesn't exist.

I ONLY got the blue screen after installing WB. I booted in Safe Mode, did a System Restore before I installed it, and everything is working fine.

... I "MIGHT" try to install it again... "MIGHT"...

Best way is to install Stardock Central first, then register WB, then use SDC to download and install WB.

SDC will also notify you of any updates and has archive function for easy rollback.

I assume you un-installed the trial. How many times did you get the BSOD before doing the restore and what graphics card and drivers.
