computer restarts when opening MM3: I get this blue screen
Can't read the blue screen, because it doesn't stay long enough at the screen. though I think it has something to do with a physical memory overflow.

The blue screen can be configured not to be shown. Google it and you will find how to.

1. Open the control panel and open System.
2. Click the Advanced tab, and then the settings button for Startup and Recovery.
3. In the System Failure box, uncheck "Automatically Restart".
This setting, while active, causes your computer to restart by itself when it crashes. Now you can read the error report it generates, and turn the computer off on your own terms.
VISTA:
1. Open the Control Panel, open System, and click Advanced System Settings. Proceed with XP steps 2 and after.
Now click Okay, and start up mediamonkey.
When your computer bluescreens, write down the error code. Restart, post the code here, and google it to see if it's a problem with your hardware.
blue screen
harpagonis,
Another thing that would be useful is to generate a debug log. The blue screen will prevent you from saving the debug log, so what you need to do is configure debugview to 'save to file'--that way everything up to the bluescreen gets recorded in the log.
More about generating the debug log is at step 4b of:

If you have the time, please send it our way. Thx.
