BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH (BSOD)

On occasion, computers will display the dreaded "blue screen of death" (BSOD) and promptly shut down on their own. The errors usually involve system files, but can also include corrupt device drivers, registry errors, malware or virus infections, hardware conflicts, memory corruption or hard disk damage.

According to Solvusoft:

SYS errors most often occur during computer start-up, program startup, or while trying to use a specific function in your program (eg. printing).

A few internal fix options include running "sfc/scannow" and "chkdsk/f" through the Windows system file checker (typically found on PC by clicking "Start" and then typing "run" in the search box).

Solvusoft is a good troubleshooting resource when trying to decipher system errors.
