Fear the Blue Screen

[Zorg Machine]

I hate it when that happens.....oh right I have a mac so that doesn't happen =D

The worst technology-related problem I've had, was that my motherboard destroyed certain types of RAM sticks, and refused to recognize other types. I don't know how it was fixed, but IIRC I had to buy four 1GB RAM sticks, which at the time cost 80 euros each.(two were destroyed by the motherboard and couldn't be returned, one was broken in half by my father only hours before the problem was fixed and the fourth is still in use)

I never really had software-related problems. A BSOD meant I had too many viruses on my computer and that it was time to reinstall windows.

My toaster didn't toast my bread. I had forgot to plug it in. Damn technology.

Hehe, that's about the worst thing I've ever done as well. Except put a baked potato studded with army men in a microwave, it's still covered in the green stains from those poor, defenceless soldiers. Fun times.

i left a fork in the microwave before. Fireworks. fun, then it broke.

I did this. Only the slidey thing wouldn't stay down and I got so annoyed I bashed it with my fist. I left a fist shaped dent in the top and whenever you used it afterwards blue sparks came out X(

Not much problems really. Screaming, threatening and then (if not compliant) hitting them always seems to fix a tv if someone needs one fixed.

I never ever got the Blue Screen of Death. I must be really lucky I guess...

It's very embarrassing when that happens. I once stood near the toaster for 10 minutes waiting for my pop-tarts, then I saw it wasn't plugged in.
My family got a good laugh at that...

my old laptop used to BSoD every few hours, it would lock up, the sound would go really loud and then BSoD. nearly gave me a fucking heart attack i swear.

this dell I'm on now, I've had for about 14 months and it's only BSoD twice. laptops suck.

The thing that annoys me is that if I turn the User Account Control on, I get incessant messages whining about ever action my computer makes.

"Are you sure you want to start this program?"
*YES*
"Are you sure you MEANT to click "YES" on the last window"
*YES*
"Ok, seriously, no pissing about this time, do you REALLY want to run this program"
...*YES*
"Windows has blocked this program from running"

GAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!11

 

[Nomad]

The worst error I've ever had?

Must be the program I was using crashing, and then me getting an error message saying "Error: No error"... Now, how the hell do you fix something that apparently isn't broken? Do you... break it or something?

 

[The DSM]

Had to reinstall windows or when I had to reformat my entire computer damn you firefox >.<

 

[cyber_andyy]

When I droped a comptuer on my arm. Computer was fine. My arm hurt though.

 

[GodsOneMistake]

I lit my microwave on fire once does that count

I'm having problems with Firefox, which, ironically, I downloaded because IE was being a pain in the arse.

Every so often, for no reason whatsoever, it closes itself and then has the nerve of asking, do you want to continue with your previous session? Yes, of course I do! I had five tabs open, I don't want to find all those pages again!

It's not what it does really. It's more the frequency with which it does it. Damn thing.

shhhh stop tarnishing the good reputation of firefox. or else when the apocalypse arrives the glowing red fox will judge you as evil and such

The glowing red fox is welcome to judge me as evil. And I will judge it as a retarded useless idiot with more fail than .... um .... the Wales football team (soccer to anyone foreign) .

Red Ring of Death and a fridge failure in one day. It sucked

Of course it is. They're too busy practising Rugby, because they're big tough men who play proper manly games. Not wimpy football with players going, "Ooh, I broke a nail."

One of my friends laptops actually caught fire, swear to god
