iTunes 8 Apple Inc’s latest version that was released on Tuesday, seems to be causing havoc with Windows Vista, the lauch of iTunes 8 was to coincide with the iPod refresh.

It’s been reported by lots of users on the Apple support forum, that as soon as a iPhone or iPod is connected to a PC with Window Vista the PC crashes, and the user gets the “blue screen of death” (BSOD) appearing on the screen, this critical error appears on a blue background and the user then has to reboot to recover.

One user posted on the forum that they installed the iTunes 8 over the iTunes 7 on Vista and the Blue screen of death appeared, this happened three times, the post had been viewed almost 10,000 times and has collected nearly 300 messages, as other users discussed their problems with iTunes 8 and offering possible solutions.
