Which is kind of like a BSOD, only your system MIGHT still work. Mine didn’t. I’m kind of sad though, because this is just a few days after I turned off OOPS reporting for some reason, probably in search of more performance. I wont do that again, in case something happens again.

On the up side, my machine can suspend now! Turns out it wasn’t a problem with Linux, but a problem with the BIOS, which could cause “64-bit operating systems with more than 4 GB or more of RAM to fail to resume from suspend”, which I guess explains why my machine shipped with the 32-bit version of Windows Vista. A quick BIOS flash later, and everything worked on the second try (I have no idea what happened the first time).

I’ve got one more exam left, but so far I’ve made a B- in Biology, and a B+ in Theory of Computation. Still waiting for the last 3 grades.
