  2. Blue screen of death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_screen_of_death

    This is not a crash screen, however; upon crashing, Windows 1.0 would simply lock up or exit to DOS. This behavior is also present in Windows 2.0 and Windows 2.1. Windows 3.0 uses a text-mode screen for displaying important system messages, usually from digital device drivers in 386 Enhanced Mode or other situations where a program could not run.

    Rarely an experienced user would reinstall Windows. In the case of the former, the boot loader will most likely inform the user the name of the missing file, allowing for the user to supply and/or reinstall the missing files to resolve the boot problem. In the case of the latter, however, the computer will not be able to boot, even into safe mode.

  4. General-purpose computing on graphics processing units

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_computing...

    General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU, or less often GPGP) is the use of a graphics processing unit (GPU), which typically handles computation only for computer graphics, to perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the central processing unit (CPU).

  5. Pascal (microarchitecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(microarchitecture)

    Painting of Blaise Pascal, eponym of architecture. Pascal is the codename for a GPU microarchitecture developed by Nvidia, as the successor to the Maxwell architecture. The architecture was first introduced in April 2016 with the release of the Tesla P100 (GP100) on April 5, 2016, and is primarily used in the GeForce 10 series, starting with the GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 (both using the ...

  6. Hard disk drive failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_failure

    A head crash, one type of disk failure. The platters should normally be smooth in modern drives, and a head crash results in partial to total data loss, as well as irreversible damage to the platters and heads. Particles may also be liberated during this process, making the insides of the drive not clean enough for operation.

  7. Reactive hypoglycemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_hypoglycemia

    Reactive hypoglycemia, postprandial hypoglycemia, or sugar crash is a term describing recurrent episodes of symptomatic hypoglycemia occurring within four hours [1] after a high carbohydrate meal in people with and without diabetes. [2] The term is not necessarily a diagnosis since it requires an evaluation to determine the cause of the ...

    This CAPTCHA (reCAPTCHA v1) of "smwm" obscures its message from computer interpretation by twisting the letters and adding a slight background color gradient.A CAPTCHA (/ ˈ k æ p. tʃ ə / KAP-chə) is a type of challenge–response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human in order to deter bot attacks and spam.

  9. Graph isomorphism problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_isomorphism_problem

    The problem is not known to be solvable in polynomial time nor to be NP-complete, and therefore may be in the computational complexity class NP-intermediate. It is known that the graph isomorphism problem is in the low hierarchy of class NP, which implies that it is not NP-complete unless the polynomial time hierarchy collapses to its second ...
