Trying to find as screenshot of a BSOD..

[Vicman 0]

I am working on a project, and I am requiring a computer to have a BSOD pic on the monitor. I've tried taking a screenshot but have not had any success at it yet. Of course not, the computer had crashed. What I'm wondering is if anybody has taken a digital pic with a camera, or possibly had their computer be just usable enough to be able to get the printscreen to work?

Winternals has a program called BlueSave that is capable of capturing the blue-screen information...

Guess you can't have a BSOD if you can't find anything to run on it...

MacOS 9 sucks. You may not get BSODs, but you will get lockups like in Win9x. Even worse. You can't even find out what the hell is going on. BSOD is there to give you some information.

MacOS 9 is just about as bad. Can we say "Open Transport Issues?" "Mac DHCP Freeze?" "supposed to be fixed in OS 7x, 8.5, 8.6, and 9.0 but it seems to keep happening?"

 

I know some Mac afficandos that are begining to think that unless OSX has Open transport issues, its not a real Mac Platform.
