Why don't you want to take it to get it fixed? Sounds like it could be a hardware problem, if you are getting a BSOD. If you open the case you might invalidate the warranty. Then you will have to pay to get it fixed.

What does the BSOD message say?

Blue Screen Of Death - it's the blue screen you see when Windows crashes. I thought that was what you meant.

have you tried hitting control+alt+delete when you are in the blue Microsoft XP screen? It might bring up a login dialog.
