Agreed. It has to be Photoshopped, or the bluescreen screensaver that failed. Because getting the dreaded blue screen of death instantly halts the computer and drops you out of the graphics interface… so getting an application error would then be impossible.
I think it is. Bluescreen’s not a Windows app, it’s lower than windows, so UI elements won’t exist, so there will be no cursor to click the button with, nor will there be a button. Lastly it’s not referred to as ”Bluescreen” at code level.
I’m a system analyst and this image is 100% fake. When Windows goes BSOD, they switch for character mode and int this mode it is not capable of render graphical windows.
But, even if theorically they would, the blue screen error show an error that affect ntoskrnl.exe, the Windows kernel. With kernel break down, the render engine will not execute also.
It’s not a double negative, if your intention was to fail and you didn’t succeed then yes, you can fail at failing. However, in this case presumably the intention was to succeed and the BSOD failed so the caption is wrong – the explanation isn’t.
I’m sorry did i just suck the last bit of LOL out of this?
massive photoshop fail – knowing you can do it in ’shop is one thing – using such crappy elements that the text has nasty architecturing around it – plain laziness
It’s a screensaver; for a while, I had it running on the computers in my company’s server room. It displays a fake boot-up screen, then shows the bluescreen and pretends to reboot and go through the process again. Fun times.
Also, it’s possible to get the NT-style BSOD if you tell Windows XP to not reboot on a crash (which is useful if you want to actually troubleshoot your crashes).
In other words, Dr. Frankenstein, it is YOU who fail.
once whilst writing a program in dev pascal i got a fail that said “fatal syntax error, error expected but error is erroneous” btw to be erroneous is to contain an error
First bitches!!
Fail.
Just fail.

What’s your RuneScape username?
RuneScape?
FAIL!
no not fail EPIC FAIL
There must be a higher level. CATASTROPHIC fail maybe?
maybe apocalyptic fail?
its a catastroficly failing apocolyptic fail
no, it’s catastroficly apocolypticly infinitely epicly made of failness. thry saying that 5 times.
Try learning to spell…
I personally prefer massive fail
This isn’t fail, thats WIN
No it is a fail.
You fail for saying otherwise.
no… get it… it’s WIN operating system.
C:\>WIN
Bad command or filename
C:\>FAIL
Loading Microsoft Windows…
may best comment ever.
(although posted in oct.)
No, I’m afraid PITIFUL FAIL is as high as it goes.
how bout The Uber Catastrophically Apocalyptic Failure of the Armageddon?
Magnanimous apocalyptic catastrophic fail, just like windows vista! =D
windops vista sux man. hate hate hate it!!
It was xp dumbass
xp is fine
vista sucks ass
SPELLING=FAIL
you mean magnanimous apocolyptic catostrofic vista-like fail!
2 tiny
nah, just omega fail.
Runescape? wtf?
1/0 fail?
Lol… Runescape IS fail!
Uberfail in fact.
Maple Story is WIN!!!
Diablo = EPIC WIN!
get a life.
You FAIL to give us your name, or to say nawt-second so
This smells fake…. And fake does not smell tasty
That… is a beautiful error.
Out of curiousity, is that a photoshop job, or has anyone had that actually happen? (Likely photoshop, but with MS, nothing surprises me.)
Probably Someones homemade application there.. Or a photoshop, Definately not MS
could be photoshopped but it is definitely just as likely its just another one of microsofts many fails
in conclusion
APPLE=WIN
Uh, no. M$ and Apple are not polar opposites. M$ fail =/= Apple win.
gtfo.
1. Spelling Microsoft correctly won’t kill you. (Linux user?)
2. Apples suck. I know this because I’m posting from a MacBook.
Apples are the worst OS ever. Linux is alright but wont be good until wine is perfected and game company make games 4 Linux.
Blue Screen of Death screensaver, I’m guessing
I think so too…
I concur. AFAIK the bluescreen screensaver is called ‘bluescreen’
Agreed. It has to be Photoshopped, or the bluescreen screensaver that failed. Because getting the dreaded blue screen of death instantly halts the computer and drops you out of the graphics interface… so getting an application error would then be impossible.
yes. my fscked up old computer did this several times…
too bad it’s only cool to be second… you fail. clearly.
wtf, i sent dis one!!1
the first sender-iners get the credits…
i think its fake. its triple fail
I think it is. Bluescreen’s not a Windows app, it’s lower than windows, so UI elements won’t exist, so there will be no cursor to click the button with, nor will there be a button. Lastly it’s not referred to as ”Bluescreen” at code level.
In other words; fail.
nerdygeek!
It is from this app that downloads all this stuff for free, we almost got busted.
isn’t the typo in the url fail too? Oo
yeah! lol. fialblog fail!
dont u just love to see that! ahhh… sweet failage….
Any body who knows something about computers will know that that is a fake. Bluescreen isn’t a app for one! Descent photoshop though.
lol thats funny
DESCENT photoshop?! DOUBLE FAIL @mje89
1. it’s written “decent”
2. it’s not decent, that’s just an alert box copied over another image -.-
Nice. Fail for bad advertising tie-in though. A business coach? Should be a computer ad.
this is so old… not impressed
well
Bluescreen is nowadays a MicroSoft application (screensaver)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinternals/bb897558.aspx
no need to use Photoshop
Don’t be like ebaumsworld and put your watermark on stuff that didn’t originally come from you.
Zzzz. Sorry fell asleep for a second.
it is a double negative
Concur
doble negetive = win!
stupid yankees

White and Nerdy.
Yeah? At least he made a sensible contribution.
You fail.
he fails at faling like the fail pic. that = win!
Yeah, most of the techies here know… it’s still funny though.
must be vista
even vista can’t fail that hard unless you are one of the poor souls/fails that rushed out to buy it on day 1
All of you who didn’t answer as Spoo did, FAIL.
This is a screensaver app, which can, and does, fail. I have a copy myself.
I hope they didn’t click enter or press OK! The universe would end!!
It’s not a double negative, if your intention was to fail and you didn’t succeed then yes, you can fail at failing. However, in this case presumably the intention was to succeed and the BSOD failed so the caption is wrong – the explanation isn’t.

“Crashlogger.exe has encountered an unknown error and needs to close”
Hows that for a fail at failing?
massive photoshop fail – knowing you can do it in ’shop is one thing – using such crappy elements that the text has nasty architecturing around it – plain laziness
also – I’ve had a great vista fail message :
“warning – failed to create the balloon”
of all the functions of my PC I don’t expect childrens entertainer to be one so I’ll forgive it.
Windows NT 3/4 BSOD + Windows XP MessageBox.
Stacked fail.

well if you wnat to know an epic fail, I have had a mac virus on Vista, it crashed my whole networking stuff (yess technical word)
Eww JPEG artifacts.
Microsoft does fail.
herez mah full usrnem!!
thats fake its not hilarious
Fake and very hilarious.
u fail at epically failing
once whilst writing a program in dev pascal i got a fail that said “fatal syntax error, error expected but error is erroneous” btw to be erroneous is to contain an error
why not just SUPAFAIL? haha
failtrocity
Failhounds!
