| 52345 | 2002-06-04 03:42:00 | Is it part of MS's Operating SystemS? Like some kind of deep self protection mechanism or is it all OSs? Or is it hardware which seems an unlikely thing. Do Mac users get it? Is it von Neuman's archecture? It's getting a mythic status like some twaddle out of the Lord of the Rings. | Guest (0) | ||

| 52347 | 2002-06-04 04:17:00 | Thanks Terry, so it is a self-protection thing of some sort? Like 'my innards are getting so curdled I better stop here'? | Guest (0) | ||
| 52348 | 2002-06-04 05:13:00 | Ah, the Blue Screen Of Death. I can honestly say I've managed to avoid this quite well recently, but it still pops up happy as a smurf sometimes. It's alot like the test pattern on TV. It's a jumbled mess of information, yet it does it's job so well that nobody has bothered to change it for decades. Just be thankful that when your PC bites it, it doesn't display infomercials until you turn it off and come back later. |
