    For your amusement, here is some C/C++ code that locks up a Windows NT/2000 machine hard -- Blue Screen of Death: #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("CrashMe\t\t\b\b\b\b\b\b"); printf("CrashMe\t\t\b\b\b\b\b\b"); return 0; } You'll have to reboot after running this code. :( omkamal

    Yup, that ranks of there with one of the most moronic bugs in the OS. It has been around for ages too. Tim Smith Descartes Systems Sciences, Inc.

        Not really. Just some bug in the console driver. Really really stupid. Tim Smith Descartes Systems Sciences, Inc.

          I don't think the "CrashMe" part has anything to do with the problem. /ravi "There is always one more bug..." ravib@ravib.com http://www.ravib.com

            This is some kind of joke, right? Well, even if it isn't, it doesn't crash XP.

              Get the BSOD when the code is compiled with VC6 SP5 but not with VC7.

                This has done the rounds before, and whats more, it is excessive. All that you need to do is print one more\b than you do \t.

                  I had to try it to belive it... Do you know where this comes from? Is it a bug with the MS 'stdio' library? :confused: /moliate

                      Can anyone remember where to download that screensaver that runs through a series of fake BSODs, but that is actually tailored on-the-fly to your machine? It was on my scrap drive (the one I scrapped all the files from) so I lost it. :( ________________ David Wulff http://www.davidwulff.co.uk "I loathe people who keep dogs.
