Windows 11 to replace the blue screen of death with a black screen (BSOD)

Windows 11 to replace the blue screen of death with a black screen (BSOD)

The Blue Death screen is already an iconic element of Windows, and is also known as BSOD. It was time, though, to say farewell. Windows 11 contains a black death screen, which fortunately keeps the BSOD abbreviation in English.

the output is precisely the same as that of the blue screen, which only changes the color of the backdrop, so it better blends with on and off systems that have likewise a black background. according to Microsoft. In addition to the basic error codes we have seen since Windows 3.0, the sad face introduced in 2012 and the QR code introduced in 2016 are kept.

Wanna enable it already?

This black death screen is already in the insider's version, however, the green screen seen in the insider builds is active. If you wish to enable, you may do this by registering, change the DisplayPreReleaseColor Variable to 0, and restart the system (HKLM \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet\ Control \ CrazhControl)).

If they are styling a new BSOD, it could mean that they expect us to watch it a lot of times... nice!

Can't believe what MS is wasting time with :rolleyes: No one, literally no one, asked for this and has benefits from this, OK maybe those with not so good eyes will make a "benefit" of staring at the black BSOD instead of blue one for few secs... but... but... whatever.

Morning, around 6AM... One of the MS chairmans sitting on the toilet bowl... Here goes the moment of inspiration: "...hmmm, what should we change next in Win11... let me think.... OMG, Eureka! What if we change the colour of blue screen of death to black one and call it... BSOD!..." :D

OK MS, we're waiting for more useless things :p

I think they should just use the "This is Fine" everything on fire meme and be done with it...

Well, at least they have stopped demonising smurfs with the screen of death moniker.
We at the PSA (Pro Smurf Alliance) welcome this change.
Back to some good old fashioned racism associating a screen of death with black.
Wait until the woke brigade hear about this.
