Debugging Windows crashes with minidumps? Not at Lenovo

,----[ Quote ]
| Like many of you, my copies of Windows XP crash with the now-classic "blue 
| screen of death" (BSOD). When this happened a couple times recently to a new 
| ThinkCentre A61 tower, I called Lenovo tech support. As the title of this 
| posting suggests, it did not go well.

Parking with Windows

| Windows.
| 
| One can't even park anymore without getting the Blue Screen of Death.
| 
| Incidentally, the parking attendant couldn't figure out why I wanted to take 
| a picture of the payment machine. For my part, I couldn't figure out why he  
| wasn't running a real operating system. :-)

Who Knew... [Musical instruments crash]

| Who knew that even musical instruments could experience Microsoft’s Blue 
| Screen of Death. I didn’t until I went to Seattle’s Experience Music Project 
| last week.

Trouble Shooting The Blue Screen of Death

,----[ Quote ]
| Fortunately since Windows 2000 this has become less of a common occurrence, 
| or so it seemed. Working late last night at a client’s office on a handful 
| of problems already, Windows Vista (Brand new machine, only a week old) 
| decided to show me otherwise. While copying some vital files to the 
| machine, it restarted windows. After a rebooting to the login screen, 
| it then repeated the process of halting and restarted, nice!

Would You put Your Life in Vista's Hands?

,----[ Quote ]
| While on a visit in Romania, where Bill Gates participated in the 
| celebration of 10 years since the Microsoft branch has been running 
| there, and the launch of Vista, declared that, with the right amount
| of administration, the new Vista could run life support systems in 
| hospitals.
