Default My first BSoD on Vista

I finally got a BSoD on my Vista when I'm using VirtualBox to emulate OpenSolaris and Linux.

VirtualBox costs 512MB per window

BTW: How to take screenshots of BSoD or login screen?

Well, since some buttons go out when BSoD happens I would try using a camera.

You can take a screenshot of any virtual computer, such as those in VirtualBox or, like me, Microsoft Virtual PC. But if the main system goes out, I recommend using blueheat127's option of using a camera. You might want to make it quick; some blue screens automatically dump the RAM then reset the machine.

They are likely taken through a virtual machine. All of my Mac OS 9 and prior errors (except one) were taken through a virtual machine and well as several of the Windows 3.1, 98, and 2000 ones. (Oddly, two of the 3.1 errors was taken on a real Windows 3.1 system. ) All of the 95 images were from a real 95 machine, as well as all the XP, Vista, and Mac OS X ones.
