The Biggest Windows Error Ever!

OOPS!

The number of times I've seen windows error messages at the timetable screens at stations, at the airport, etc. ... It's kinda good to know that their computers have just the same problems as the one at home. LOL.

I remember when we took my dad to the airport one night, and everything was blue screened. I lol'ed.

I saw some of those on some arcade screen at Dave and Buster's. What the fuck are arcade machines doing running windows anyway?

Hahaha, I love it when things like that happen.

Biggest thing like that for me is probably just a presentation at the school auditorium. It got error'd, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with it for a while..

I've seen stickers of the blue screen of death. I've even seen one plastered on someone's car. I swear, the girl who owned the car, like, freaked out for at least half a second when she saw it. (Must've been some kind of secretary. XD )

... ... Scraping the sticker off her window probably left a lot of smear marks on it. L_L'

What if during a rock concert, (you know sometimes how they use a screen in the background) the bsod popped up there? That would be so funny!

For a geek.

Times Square got pwned by ActiveX XD

What does ActiveX have to do with windows crashing? I never seen ActiveX crash windows yet.

From the dialog it appears they were using DirectShow which is part of DirectX. Notice the icon in the upper right corner of the dialog - that's the DirectX logo.

that's a big ol

omgwtflmao

heh, it's been quite a while since I've seen a BSOD at a public place
