I have something that keeps happening to my laptop. I will start it up and it will go to a blue screen. On the screen it will tell me how it has been stopped by windows in order to protect it. I am not sure if it gives the same code each time but this time the code was

stop 0x00000050 (0xDD5893A4,0x00000000,0x804E70D5,0x00000000)

I dont know what to do about it. I turn it off and wait to restart it. I will also shut down by itself for no reason anytime. This causes big problems because I work from my computer and this will happen right in the middle of my work.

this can happen when new hardware has been installed and it is not recognised by the pc or bios..try checking the bios

this sounds like some type of firewall try turnig security centre off and bringing things back on slowly if this does not help try microsoft help centre.
