1@Ramhound Blue and chances are it's being caused by the GPU overheating. – Griffin – 2013-08-31T00:40:21.167

the stop code on blue screen ?? usually GPU overheating get you freeze rather than blue screen, it hang, so it cannot display it. – None – 2013-08-31T02:11:36.800

1@AntonyLee Your english is bad. On top of that blue screening for a GPU is quite normal. I had it bad when I was gaming on my desktop and forgot to turn the fans back on. – Griffin – 2013-08-31T03:15:09.387

Well I dislike that a google search led me to the answer but this site seems to outline it quite clearly. Follow these instructions and you should be fine.

"File" menu in the ribbon , click on "Options". Click on "Advanced" tab , "Display" section You will find the "hardware graphics acceleration"

disable HW acceleration in Office 2013
