    error 404

    back in the old days error messages were a lot harder to understand. there were millions of things that could go wrong but we only had small hard drives then. This meant the drive could only hold just so many error messages. usually you got one error messge for a lot of different problems. but you could usually still tell what was wrong if you had been on here for awhile.

    It amuses me when my machine informs me it's performed an illegal operation and will shut down.

    The mind boggles, especially as a work at a medical practice!

    My favourite Message Is:

    "Warning, Windows has detected that the mouse has moved and needs to restart"

    It always does that to me!

    My favourite isn't a real error message, but I'm fond of saying PEBKAC...

    The full error message?

    404 is always fun. "You have no connection to the Internet". My absolute favorite is "No bootable media found". That' special. Close to this is "Drive controller error".
