It's Critical to Resolve Blue Screen of Death Errors

In the majority of cases, you will encounter s916cmnt.sys BSOD errors after you've installed new hardware, software (Sony Ericsson PC Suite), or performed a failed Windows Update.

Therefore, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.


GEEK TIP : As a rule of thumb, it's always a good idea to create a Windows "Snapshot" backup / System Restore Point before making any hardware or software changes to your computer. That way, it's very easy to restore your system in the unfortunate event you encounter a s916cmnt.sys Blue Screen of Death error after recent changes.
