Okay. I am making videos using this cool plugin. However I notice a bug.
Everytime I make a video using no matter what codec - if the file gets over
16MB my PC crashes with blue screen of death! + reboot!

Wow, I thought Windows XP eliminated the blue screen of death!

Allow me to correct you: Blue screens are caused by users.

What is the message on the BSOD? That information, including all of
the parameters, will be a direct clue as to the underlying cause of
the problem.

Good luck

Message? That's if there's a way to screen-capture it. It happens so fast
with a reboot 1/2 a second after the BSOD shows - no chance to read it.
Don't think PRINT SCREEN will work coz memory gets reset - and it doesn't
look GUI, more like DOSy.

Open Control Panel - System - Advanced
Click on the Settings button in the Startup and Recovery (bottom)
section.
In the Startup and Recovery window click on the checkbox for
"automatically restart" to clear it.
Click on Apply and OK as needed to exit.

That should keep the BSOD on screen long enough for you to copy the
information from it. In fact you will likely have to manually power
off and restart the computer.

Good luck
