I believe the title says it all really... But too add some more info - My Bush tablet (bought about 3 weeks ago) has suddenly started crashing coming to a blue screen with a ' :( ' face and usually, but not always, the 'unexpected kernel mode trap' error. This has been going on for almost a week now and is naturally very irritating especially as it's new! Not connecting to the internet or watching videos seems to keep it going longer as does keeping it plugged into the charger. However it only lasts about 5 mins now before crashing at best... Any help would be gratefully received and if it leads to it being fixed and if you find yourself travelling through Swansea, Wales, then I'll buy you a pint! Thanks

If you bought it 3 weeks ago and you are getting blue screens you probably have defective hardware. I would take it back where you bought it and exchange for a new. If you can't you will have to make a warranty claim with the manufacturer.

Does this tablet have a full version of Windows 8?
