The dreaded “blue screen of death” that has tormented millions of Microsoft Window users for decades is being put to rest.

The infamous "blue screen of death," which featured a text frown and terrified those who experienced it, no longer exists after Microsoft killed it in favor of a simple black screen and error code.

It usually happens to your computer right in the middle of something important: The dreaded Microsoft Windows blue error screen. Now Microsoft is retiring the blue screen of death for a new color.
