You know your hexadecimal output routine is broken when it displays the character "G".

You know something's messing with your memory when an unsigned variable outputs a negative number.

You know something is wrong when you try to play Atomic Kitten, and get Cranberries instead.

You know something's wrong when... Windows hasn't restart-requiring BSOD'd in over 4 months? (by that I mean "File write error" due to a bad sector doesn't count. Besides, I didn't have to restart anything )

Depends on what version of Windows it is. XP is pretty stable, for instance. 98, on the other hand...

Out of the 9x releases, I've found that 95 rev. B is the best (no IE-integration or bloat)

But still, Linux is better, especially with KDE

Yeah, I can't remember if I had 1st or 2nd edition, but when I had 98, it would crash at least daily.

You know something's wrong when every TV channel is showing nothing but Jerry Springer.

Well, yes, okay, but that's not related to computing.

Anyway, you know something is wrong when random pixels change color and your monitor goes into a permanent sleep mode (meaning it needs a restart). This had been happening on and off for a while, but I think dumping ATI Tray Tools fixed it.

You know smething's wrong when your display flickers constantly the same way with two monitors of different types. (Happened to me once.)

That used to always happen to me... cold and rainy during the weekend, beautiful and warm on the weekdays (school)

You know something's wrong when freeware apps perform better than commercial apps.

Specifically, when companies use their monopoly status to make overpriced, underfeatured products and then not update them for years. (IE, anyone?)

You know something's wrong when Firefox doesn't work properly, forcing you to switch to Opera or use MSIE.

You know your graphics adapter doesn't support DirectX 9 when your Rappelz Epic III client shows both of your characters' legs moving in synchronicity like a bunny rabbit.

Happened to my brother. I don't play dumb games.
