Let’s check Windows 11’s New Black Screen of Death (BSOD). Microsoft recently released the next version of Windows 11 in the insider preview. Many enhancements have been made to visuals, including switching the infamous Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) to Black Screen of Death.

Developers who are part of the Microsoft Windows Insider Program, as per recent insider build testing, revealed that they had changed the black screen of death on social networks. They noticed that Windows 11 changed the color from blue to black for the Screen of Death.

Let’s have a quick look at the options to upgrade to Windows 11 and the Windows 11 Insider Program Registration Process. You need to make sure whether your PC meets the Windows 11 Minimum System Requirements posts give you more details about the minimum hardware requirements.
