what is linux what does it look like and will it solve the blue screen of death

[mooseberry]

nevermind about linux my computer doesn't even boot up anymore i get an black screen that says code and it says like that for a ever.

Linux would probably fix that problem too.

How would it fix it if it doesn't even load up? That's his computers problem, not window's.

Depends on what the cactus means with "... says code".

I don't think his computer is fucked. It is probably his installation. But, of course, unless he shares us the text of the error message he gets we won't know.

My computer was getting the blue screen every 2 minuets so i thought i would clean it out. I removed the ram and cleaned there slots then reinstalled it.  Now when i boot up that computer i get a black screen that says an message which i cant state because i am not near the computer right now. I think its a normal message that happens when your computer is detecting new ram but it lasted for 6 hours so i know something isn't right.  besides it not working its a really good computer duel Intel presser 2 gigs of ram a video card(which i know nothing about) and a 150 gb hard drive.

How many ram modules do you have? Had a problem once with new ram. 2 of the same modules wouldn't work together. Try to put in a single module and boot the computer.
What message do you get?

[EDIT] Just my little vendetta.

Hmm, could be overheating, bad ram, bad other hardware.

well my dad fixed it he took out the ram and put it back in and that seamed to work

Did it fix the bluescreens too ?
