    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

            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.
