Blue screen are commonly caused due to ram fault. So the first thing you have to check is verify the memory sticks. I think that will be more helpful. It is essential that you must simply verify the memory sticks first. That will be more helpful in dealing with the issue you are facing. There are ample of nice tools available to test the ram problem. One of them is MemTest. You can download it and burn it on a DVD. Boot your system through that and run a full ram test. If there is no error detected then there can be some other issue. Blue screen errors can also be caused due to software bug. Like a damage drive file, or corrupt Windows Update. It is essential that you must properly verify the cause of issue. Event Logs is a great place to find the associated problem with different files. It gives you information on the dll or exe file which is associated with the crash. You can then simply fix it or get rid of the same to make your system work more properly.

If there is no hardware fault then this can help you to locate the exact cause.

It is always recommended to create a backup of your system. This offers you easy restore when you face such issue. It is essential that you must simply run a complete system repair and test out.

There are some ways to quickly restore the system in case of major failure. The first one is startup repair. Boot your system with Windows Server Bootable disc.

But if it does not work then you can go ahead with hardware testing. Like removing the ram and adding them back again one by one on different slots. You can later on simply also try to disconnect other attach hardware and hook them back. The best way to get rid of this issue is simply installing SBS 2011 again back from scratch. This time go slowly with the configuration. You can one by one install required drivers and software's as per your need. Bluescreen are really annoying error and it is not easy to get rid of them.
