Red Screen of Death: Just for Laughs

Post by **Stuart** » 14 Jul 2008, 14:38

No one I have asked yet has actually seen a Red Screen of Death, and neither had I ... till last night. Was trying to see how far I could push my CPU without having to increase voltages. Got it to 410*8 and running stably. Tried 415*8 and then this happened.

Apologies for the poor quality, but that was taken at about midnight, with all the lights off in the room, from my phone. However, you can at least see that the Screen of Death is red, not blue. Completely unedited.

Interesting. Though I assure you, I am NOT using an early RC of Vista. Which means it must've been a boot loader error?

It looks better than the blue screen!

Hope that never catches on... I can imagine millions of users suffering from seizures with that colour...
