Hi JerryinToronto
I'm not with Laminar Research, just a fellow simmer in the UK, but I have a couple of questions at this stage:-
1. What version of X-Plane are you using?
2. Please confirm the hardware specification of your PC/Laptop?
3. Could you please upload a copy of your X-Plane Log.txt file to this post? If you're not sure how to do this, please click on following link to view the instructional PowerPoint slides that I have prepared for this purpose:- http://questions.x-plane.com/?qa=blob&qa_blobid=10151561754828196180
4. I am going to assume that as you have reported a 'blank' blue screen, that it is just that and not the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) which may indicate other issues. Please confirm?
Regards
