O.P. Have you ever had a system failure?
Have you ever had a system failure?
I have never had a system failure of any kind, so i thought this would determine if its a every-day thing or a one off thing. There is a poll to vote.

RE: Have you ever had a system falure?
yep, my RAM failed me about 6 months after I got my computer (it was my own fault, but the shop didn't know that). Replaced it with warranty coverage.
As for software-related failures, Windows has BSODed me before, maybe 10 times total?

My computer now has a tendency to now go; BOOM...no BSOD. Or it just freezes

RE: Have you ever had a system failure?
Got BSODs before, and i lost a few megs of RAM on my old computer somehow.
But ever since i have been using vista (about 5 months or so) I have not had any problems at all.

RE: Have you ever had a system failure?
Several dozen BSODs (not what I would class as the "classic" ones, but the ones that have "STOP messagaes")
Two hard drives have died (both 80Gb... Coincidence?)
Had to reinstall OS about 30+ times in total (most of which were probably down to me messing with things I shouldn't...)
