I have got Windows 7, Installed and IE was working fine and Windows was not crashing or showing Blue Screen of Death.

Also i have had Loads of Blue Screen of Deaths
I have tried using Remove Windows Features and that has not worked. I don't really want to re-install the OS.
Is there a way to re-install IE8 fully and replacing all the files?
