Can you see the numbers and texts and read what is says on the blue screen? Next one is to turn on a option allowing you to see the blue screen,do like this: My Computer/Advanced/System failure/recovery then go to settings there UNTICK the option "Automatically restart" or in Vista go to control panel,system settings,System,then to your left you can see furthest not so low a option called advanced settings click it then,go to start and recovery press settings and UNTICK the "automatically restart" box.
