Screens Of Death
In computing, a system crash screen, error screen or screen of death is a visual indicator that appears when an operating system, Application software, software application, or Computer hardware, hardware encounters a severe issue that prevents normal operation. These screens typically serve as a last-resort mechanism to inform users and system administrators of a critical failure. An error screen may display technical information such as Error message, error messages, Diagnosis code, diagnostic codes, Core dump, memory dumps, or troubleshooting instructions. They can occur due to hardware malfunctions, corrupted system files, software crashes, overheating, or other critical failures. Error screens vary by operating system and device, with some of the most well-known examples being the Blue screen of death, Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows, the Sad Mac in classic Macintosh computers, and the Kernel panic, Kernel Panic in Unix-based systems like Linux and macOS.

Jaguar
The jaguar (''Panthera onca'') is a large felidae, cat species and the only extant taxon, living member of the genus ''Panthera'' that is native to the Americas. With a body length of up to and a weight of up to , it is the biggest cat species in the Americas and the List of largest cats, third largest in the world. Its distinctively marked Animal coat, coat features pale yellow to tan colored fur covered by spots that transition to Rosette (zoology), rosettes on the sides, although a melanistic black coat appears in some individuals. The jaguar's powerful bite allows it to pierce the Turtle shell#Carapace, carapaces of turtles and tortoises, and to employ an unusual killing method: it bites directly through the skull of mammalian prey between the ears to deliver a fatal blow to the brain. The modern jaguar's ancestors probably entered the Americas from Eurasia during the Early Pleistocene via the land bridge that once spanned the Bering Strait. Today, the jaguar's range ex ...

ACPI
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping), and status monitoring. It was first released in December 1996. ACPI aims to replace Advanced Power Management (APM), the MultiProcessor Specification, and the Plug and Play BIOS (PnP) Specification. ACPI brings power management under the control of the operating system, as opposed to the previous BIOS-centric system that relied on platform-specific firmware to determine power management and configuration policies. The specification is central to the Operating System-directed configuration and Power Management (OSPM) system. ACPI defines hardware abstraction interfaces between the device's firmware (e.g. BIOS, UEFI), the computer hardware components, and the operating systems. Internally, ...

Blue Screen Of Death
The blue screen of death (BSoD) or blue screen error, blue screen, fatal error, bugcheck, and officially known as a stop erroris a fatal system error, critical error screen displayed by the Microsoft Windows operating systems to indicate a crash (computing), system crash, in which the operating system reaches a critical condition where it can no longer operate safely. The name comes from the blue colored background used predominately on the error screens found in the majority of Windows releases. Possible issues contributing to a BSoD may include hardware failures, an issue with or without a device driver, computer virus, viruses, malware, and other factors such as intentional user action. __TOC__ History Blue screen errors have been around since the very first version of Windows in 1985. In the Beta Release of Windows 1.0, if it detected a version of DOS that is newer than the OS expects, the boot screen would have the text "Incorrect DOS version" alongside other messages ...

VMware ESXi
VMware ESXi (formerly ESX) is an Enterprise software, enterprise-class, Native hypervisor, type-1 hypervisor developed by VMware, a subsidiary of Broadcom, for deploying and Server (computing), serving Hardware virtualization, virtual computers. As a type-1 hypervisor, ESXi is not a software application that is installed on an operating system (OS); instead, it includes and integrates vital OS components, such as a kernel (operating system), kernel. After version 4.1 (released in 2010), VMware renamed ESX to ''ESXi''. ESXi replaces Service Console (a rudimentary operating system) with a more closely integrated OS. ESX/ESXi is the primary component in the VMware Infrastructure software suite. The name ''ESX'' originated as an abbreviation of Elastic Sky X. In September 2004, the replacement for ESX was internally called ''VMvisor'', but later changed to ESXi (as the "i" in ESXi stood for "integrated"). Architecture ESX runs on bare metal (without running an operating system) unl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
