Red screen of death[edit]

  • Keep, I think that this article deserves to be expanded and explained in more detail as soon as more information is publicly known concerning the nature of RSoD. It definitely should stay. 12:30, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, it appears to be a confirmed function of Windows Vista now. No longer a crystal ball item as it does exist. However the exact nature of it is still a bit fuzzy.Gateman1997 19:08, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, verifiable. Gazpacho 19:44, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is more RSOD's than the Windows one, such as the ps2 DRE cloud, this could be expanded a lot more. ~GT4GTR —Preceding unsigned comment added by GT4GTR (talk • contribs) 09:45, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

    I'm not sure that's appropriate. We don't know that this replaces the BSOD. The screenshots suggest that it comes from the bootstrap rather than the kernel. Gazpacho
  • Keep, the beta shows the red screen of death does exist, when the beta 2 is realeased more will be added to the article Theboarder410 20:56, 6 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - there's a precedent for different types of computer failure error screens to be listed on different articles, and this looks like it's going to turn out different enough to the blue screen of death that it warrants its own article - after all, we do have Black screen of death, along with a host of other articles for non-Microsoft operating system crash screens. We can always merge later if it proves to be exactly the same thing in a different colour. Yelyos 13:22, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge that.  Grue  19:35, 7 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge with Blue screen of death. Does anyone else think the "exectuion" (sic) bit is a little strange? — JIP | Talk 06:42, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This is now a confirmed feature of Vista(Longhorn), and it was confimed on an msdn blog, no less (http://www.siao2.com/2005/05/07/415335.aspx). Besides, if the Black Screen of Death is worthy of its own article, shouldn't this be, also? --enigma_x 19:17, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with Blue screen of death; the Black screen occurs in a different operating system. Perhaps BSOD should redirect to something Windows System Errors or something, anyway?—Kbolino 21:15, August 13, 2005 (UTC)
