How do I fix this? My Toshiba satellite l745-s4210 get the blue screen and says "check to have adequate disk space, try changing the video adapters, and to check with a hardware vendor for any bios updates, stop: 0x0000001E"..... My computer has Been running slow and runs programs really slow to the point where a lot of them are unresponsive, also my computer heats up when I play games on it, HELP PLEASE!!!
 
Have you recently installed any new software or hardware? Have you tried updating your video drivers off Toshiba's site? Have you run both a virus and malware scan with current definitions? Start with those 3, then we'll go from there. Oh, and back up everything while you can in case it's a dying GPU...
 
Use WhoCrashed or Windows Debugger tool to analyze the BSOD and gain better insight. I don't see this error message very often, so I gather this one is a little more specific.
