During the install of WDSC 5.0, I experienced a blue screen during the
shutdown portion of the reboot process.  I had many applications open
during the install (might as well give it the sledge hammer test).  IBM's
suspicion was memory.  I have been running WDSC 5.0 fine after the blue
screen during the installation.  If anyone else experiences blue screens
during installation, you may want to let someone know so they can help find
a pattern.
Here is IBM's response:

Thanks for letting us know about the problem. Although there are known
problems with the WDSC V5 installation, blue screen issues have been
rare. I suspect there was a system memory conflict. WDSC V5 uses a lot
of available memory, especially on the first boot after installation.
SInce Windows tends to start system files early in the reboot this would
confirm my suspicion. What I cannot explain is why is does not happen
all the time. Perhaps the unique combination of software on your PC
created the conflict. I will close the call unless you have further
questions. Thank you for bringing the problem to our attention.

Thank you for using IBM iSeries Support.
