Screen of death :(

Although I love the color blue, I would not have expected my laptop to show it driving it to death. Want to know what it is? Read below.

I started hating Windows Vista for giving me problems always...My system has unexpectedly shut down >10 times in the last week and I was patient enough to look at the forums and found that it was due to an incompatible software with the OS. The patience period did not stop when I called the HP folks to fix it and had to wait for a long time which made me to fell asleep :) I ended up trying all those solutions that every Tom, Dick and Harry has provided in the web world and there was one Karuna Bhagvan shedding light asking to do a System recovery to an earlier date. And finally (may be not), the problem seems to be resolved. I watched more than a hour of video today and did not hit the 'Blue screen of death'. Hopefully, my patience will not be tested again..GOK

Peak of Annoyance...

I clicked it....
It shows connecting...
I looked eagerly...
It shows 'Connection takes a longer time than usual'...
I looked at it patiently...
It shows 'Identifying...'
I felt irritated...
It shows 'Move to another place'...
I felt annoyed but moved as suggested...
It shows 'There seems to be a problem'...
I looked like 'Din't you know it before that there was a problem?'
It shows 'Network adapter/driver doesn't function properly'
I updated the adapter/driver using Device manager
It still shows 'Cannot be connected'
Annoyed again...
It shows a message with a yellow triangle and an exclamatory mark inside
I got pissed off and disconnected it

When you are in US and you don't have an internet for a day, how do you feel? Don't you feel disconnected? Annoyed? I do...This is what happened y'day. The Internet has influenced people like me in US, a lot...Isn't it? I hope the internet connection gets better tomorrow like today :) And, don't you think the title sounds like 'Pursuit of Happyness'? Jus kidding!
