I'm mostly idle and watching live video (TV, if you're curious) online.
I caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of my eye, as I wasn't paying too much attention. I looked and I saw it again. That's when I prepped my fingers 'cause they only showed it for a brief second or two - and only a few times. So, it's good that I was speedy, 'cause I caught you this (edited down) screenshot:
Yup... It's a BSOD and it's just sitting there, rather than being shut off (or fixed).
As an aside...
I like to think I'm pretty well sorted when it comes to understanding computers. It may be that I have a faulty memory (quite possible) but I only recall getting useful information from a BSOD a couple of times. The many other times I saw the BSOD, it was largely gibberish and contained nothing of value to me.
I am told that MS has changed and now try to have better/more useful information in their BSOD (and that there's a red screen of death) but I dunno? I haven't used anything newer than Vista SP2. I never even moved to 7.
Unfortunately, I can't make out what's on the screen.
