"The blue screen of death..."

You're sitting there doing work and then 'POW' it gets you when you least expect it...

Still happens with NT. Damn machines.

Twas the XBox I believe, something happened while he was loading a game? Went Bluescreen?

I also remember back when he was presenting Windows98 and it went to bluescreen, his famous quote,

'and thats why we haven't shipped this thing yet'.

Even though it was four months after release.

I haven't seen a BSOD since around 1994 back when I was using a state of the art Dell 286sx with Windows 3.1 and DOS 6.0.

Actually, I lie, I think I remember seeing one when Bill Gates was up on stage demonstrating something earlier this year, was it Windows XP or XBOX?

Yeh I suggest using XP, they eliminated the blue screen of death.
I think its green now

It only happens VERY rarely, I've got Kazaalite and it was just one of those 'leave your computer on for ages' type crashes..

If one program crashing takes the OS with it, then it's the fault of the OS not the program. You use Windows 95/98/ME - get 2000 or XP if you can.

probs because kazaa is laden with bugs, get kazaa lite if you really love kazaa, no crap it has.

Probably as I was trying to watch some videos on Kazaa (If you're young and easily amused, I was downloading porn... If you're more mature, tehn I was actually downloading some music videos and tring to watch them before they had finished!)

Anyway, I tried to watch the video and then POW it al went blue, told me I was an illegal immagrant and deported me to reboot land...

Don't use Windows 98 then

Oh and a strawberry shake, taa...
