Tim Dorr Veteran Posted January 16, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 16, 2004 That's a weird one. The kernel panic screen didn't show up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isus Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 it's happened to me once before. but hey, it's better to see that than to have windows automatically restart to hide the bsod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsnyy2002 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 isus i agree... imagine tho, a computer bluescreening randomly, but not restarting, and not showing the bluescreen, the monitor just shuts off. happened to me a lot. One of the few reasons i am going mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK1150 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 the only reason windows sets to restart is because the common user won't know what to do if they see that strange blue screen, nor will they know what the error is, therefore power users can set it so they know what the BSOD is. does that error screen even tell u what's wrong? i know the regular error screen on the mac just says "restart your computer" or something.

matt74441 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Thats the one thing that I don't like about the Windows BSOD. It should really turn off the screen instead of letting it burn-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autoexec Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Yeh dude, i can tell windows not to reboot and hold the BSOD on screen. EGIT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should really turn off the screen instead of letting it burn-in. monitor burn-in you mean? that's virtually unheard of today, you could let it stay like that for weeks and it should still be fine on a monitor made in probably earlier than 95. Most screensavers now-a-days aren't even made to prevent monitor burn, just to look pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am_fek Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 That looks like the kernel panics that used to happen on the old OS X developer previews, before 10.0 shipped. Strange that it'd happen today :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebaz Posted January 16, 2004 Author Share Posted January 16, 2004 could it be that i updated the version of apache and php that ships with panther to the latest builds? I also have the developer tools installed so maybe that contributed to that weird screen lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomis_nehc Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 actually burn-ins can still occur, even in lcd's. I actually went to circuit city and saw some of the display panels with burn-ins. I was horrified, haha, so now when I leave my comp, I turn off both of my LCD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 monitor burn-in you mean? that's virtually unheard of today, you could let it stay like that for weeks and it should still be fine on a monitor made in probably earlier than 95. Most screensavers now-a-days aren't even made to prevent monitor burn, just to look pretty. This is definately NOT the case. My parents have a 2 year old monitor that has a slight burnin of winxp...the startbar and background. Add that in to the countless number of burnins on campus that lab techs never take care of. All newer monitors. I've never seen a screen saver that was made to just "look pretty". As far as the KP....it looks almost like the Jaguar and earlier ones.

isus Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Yeh dude, i can tell windows not to reboot and hold the BSOD on screen. EGIT! :D i honestly hope you don't feel special about that. anybody can do that, it doesn't take any reg editing or hex editing... it's a checkbox right there in the system properties. but the fact is, that windows, on a regular install, sets "auto reboot" to default on. i think auto restart was invented so that ms could say xp didn't bsod anymore. in fact, it screws up the troubleshooting process, bc instead of being able to write down the error message to troubleshoot, your computer just reboots. now that's ms innovation :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebsh Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 actually burn-ins can still occur, even in lcd's. I actually went to circuit city and saw some of the display panels with burn-ins. I was horrified, haha, so now when I leave my comp, I turn off both of my LCD's. Plasma screens are the worst now, they have a pretty big burn in problem, and yep even liquid crystal when electified long enough holds a charge, which is the cause of LCD burn in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bling3k12 Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Looks like a 10.0 or 10.1 crash... what OS are you using? 10.2 and 10.3 have newer slicker looking ones that try to hide the techno info from most people before they freak out. Unless this one totally kicked around that and was just too much for it to even display the KP screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
