I cannot vouch specifically for Farcry, but I used to be on the dev team
for ShadoCMS (many moons ago), and until recently have been using it on a
daily basis in a "third party" capacity.

There is NOTHING in Shado that could cause your computer to blue screen.
In fact I would go as far as to say there's nothing one could write in CFML
that could cause a computer to blue screen.

Equally, there's no commonality between Shado and Farcry (other than some
similar techniques, implemented differently), so its unlikely that both
would do the same thing to cause an error (of any description).

If you Java install was faulty I could see how one might possibly get
system errors, but not a full-on BSOD.

There's a chance you've got some faulty RAM, and the JVM is trying to
address the faulty memory, and causing this sort of problem. That's about
the only thing I can think of that a Java app could influence in such a way
to get a blue-screen.

What are you doing when the error happens? What's going into the JRuna nd
CF logs immediately before hand?

By-the-by: it would help, when raising questions like this, if you provide
the versions of the software you're installing (ie: which versions of Shado
and Farcry).

Most commonly blue screens are caused by poor device drivers or bad hardware (broken memory modules, corrupted hard drive => corrupted files, insufficient power source if it's a desktop computer).

It would help to know more about the bluescreen message - about which driver for example caused the problem. You should also describe more in detail, when the bluescreen happened, and how you can reproduce it, in order to get any reasonable answers from us.
