Computer Crashes

Your computer
suddenly stops functioning right in the middle
of something that you are working on, what
does this mean? |
More than likely your
computer has crashed. This means that typically
the program counter is either set to a incorrect
address of the buffer overflow overwrites portions
of the program code.
There are different
kinds of computer crashes, one is a application
crash where the operation that you are trying
to do is not allowed by your operating system.
Most applications try to fix themselves and continues
to try to launch the command instead of crashing.
Device driver crashes-
is typically the software running the website
therefore getting a error message operating system
crash- this occurs when a operating system finds
that that your operating system has lost the internal
self consistency.
The most common computer
crashes are the application crash and the device
driver crash. The rarest is the operating system
. The way for your operating system to basically
crash is misplacing a program in your computer
memory, but be aware that your operating system
may get bugs by hardware and software
add-ons.
