- lodleader, on 12/06/2007, -5/+592I think the best one I had was when Vista told me that there were programs running in the background that were causing slow performance and in the list was explorer.exe
I laughed then cried then formated. - BigManOnCampus, on 12/06/2007, -12/+583The problem reporting program has stopped working!!
This problem reported to you by the problem reporting program!!
The following statement is true.
The above statement is false. - CapeKid, on 12/06/2007, -2/+392My computer had a similar paradox error.

Haha, nice. - mzkply, on 12/06/2007, -6/+149Time-Space Continuum ?? Space-Time Continuum !
- Llanowar, on 12/06/2007, -12/+148I like it better formatted like this
The statement below is false.
The statement above is true. - cawpin, on 12/06/2007, -2/+100My buddy got that in XP. "Windows has shut down this program to prevent damage to your computer: explorer.exe"
- nfollmer, on 12/06/2007, -1/+93I love when your BIOS can't detect a keyboard and asks you to hit any key to continue.
- inactive, on 12/06/2007, -9/+80welcome to the internet.
u must be new.
we have porn and bs, plenty of it.
i see you already found some bs. good.. good.. - tehnico, on 12/06/2007, -0/+70Does not compute. The best I ever got was, "Error, this error message could not be displayed."
- thebrawl, on 12/06/2007, -2/+69The statement above is false.
- fstorino, on 12/06/2007, -1/+65Not as classic as:
"Keyboard error. Press any key to continue." - ahecht, on 12/06/2007, -2/+65My favorite one came from using PRO/Engineer CAD software. I got a pop-up box with the dreaded red X that said:
ERROR: No Error - Rikushix, on 12/06/2007, -8/+69My favorite is still the error message in the DOS systems where if the motherboard components were running too hot the internal speaker would randomly play a MIDI of Fur Elise or It's a Small World After All
- hockey, on 12/06/2007, -7/+66/head asplode
- burnttoast11, on 12/06/2007, -9/+68I don't
- noahhoward, on 12/06/2007, -2/+59Just a nit-picky question here, why are there window controls on a modal dialog box. You can't just close the error and have it go away or is that a new feature.
Support: "Just minimise it and try not to think about it." - bjs3171, on 12/06/2007, -2/+56man...imagine if this happened to you, and then 30 seconds later the phone rang?
and you picked up and hesitantly said "vista??" - SwedishNinja, on 12/06/2007, -4/+56PIME TARADOX
- thanakar, on 12/06/2007, -1/+53Nobody wants bits of brain on them so they must bury the comment fast.
- Tippis, on 12/06/2007, -0/+40I like what Realplayer used to tell me when I tried to turn it off:
"Fatal Application Exit: Exiting Application" - theillest1, on 12/06/2007, -36/+76Brain...exploding!!
- webcrumb, on 12/06/2007, -0/+38When you get to the edge of the universe you'll see the Time-Space continuum.
- IEatHamburgers, on 12/06/2007, -1/+39It should've been built with paradox crumple-zones, eh?
/Futurama - RoboDonut, on 12/06/2007, -3/+40I woke up this morning and I got an message that Vista had recovered from a "Serious Error" due to an improper restart. The details said it was a BSoD.
The thing actually bluescreened while I was asleep. I was logged out, too. The only software that was running was official MS operating system processes. - Kerrigore, on 12/06/2007, -2/+38Because he didn't cite any internet memes. If he had said "O NOES MY HEAD A SPLODE" he would be dugg up OVER NINE THOUSAND times.
- dr-steve, on 12/06/2007, -3/+38In related news, Windows travels back in time and kills Bill Gates' grandfather!
- chronichyjinx, on 12/06/2007, -3/+38It's funny how many people don't know of ALT-PrtScn yet.
- nickerbocker, on 12/06/2007, -0/+34Error: Everything is ok.
- Maddoktor2, on 12/06/2007, -2/+35This is why I love Windows - never a dull moment... :D
- bightchee, on 12/06/2007, -9/+41That's how Windows should start-up every time as fair warning to its users.
- Fozefy, on 12/06/2007, -2/+34WAR IS PEACE.
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY.
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.
Hail Microsoft! - cracker42, on 12/06/2007, -31/+62The Vista error reporting is really my only gripe with Vista. Frequently when I close a program (usually games), Vista decides that the program has "stopped working". Other than that I love Vista and all you haters need to get over it.
- Wilson, on 12/06/2007, -0/+29Stop looking at my BIOS, you perv!
- isntreal, on 12/06/2007, -0/+28Who writes this *****?
- webcrumb, on 12/06/2007, -0/+27Understated... I like it.
- thanakar, on 12/06/2007, -1/+27I've been there..they are all laughing at us....
- mytea, on 12/06/2007, -9/+34Needed to be said.. nice work cracker..
I've been running Vista for almost a year (pre-release business version) and other than a few small issues, it works well. I also love it.. - Calcularius, on 12/06/2007, -1/+26Troll pellets, $1.50 a bag.
- fani, on 12/06/2007, -1/+25Funny, but I must point that the Windows Reporting is to send the message to MS, not to the user. Anyways, poor choice of words in the error message.
- gtrunner, on 12/06/2007, -3/+27Dugg down because Windows reporting obviously has never worked. Ever. So it can't break. Had it worked properly, Vista would not have been produced.
- jcaino, on 12/06/2007, -4/+28yea..like WinME.
- wordglue, on 12/06/2007, -1/+24contemporary
- givinupthefight, on 12/06/2007, -3/+26Everybody be careful. This is a sure fire way to end up killing and then becoming your own grandfather.
- Vanan, on 12/06/2007, -0/+22I used to just drag the error boxes down into a corner so only a thin line of the original window showed, most of the time I could continue using the program
- Chirp08, on 12/06/2007, -0/+21You can only imagine the coding and comments leading up to that print statement. The developer all the time thinking "my god a lot would have to ***** up all at once for this to ever get displayed, that could never happen!"
- potifar, on 12/06/2007, -0/+18Or simply "This statement is false."
- Psythik, on 12/06/2007, -0/+17Now *that's* the kind of error I wish my PC would get!
- JT114881, on 12/06/2007, -0/+17Wheres the any key??
