The Marcos Kirsch Experience®

At work, on my test machine… if I press the PrtSc key (to take a screenshot, of course) the computer freezes completely, requiring a hard reboot. This worked fine on the same machine using Windows 2000 or WindowsXP (which aren’t exactly pieces of art either).

On a happier note, I’m scheduled to receive my new Mac later today.

[Update 1/22/2007] Mr. Bhadra confirms his computer freezes when pressing the PrtSc key as well. Even on a clean installation of Vista with no third party software. Maybe the key should be re-labeled Self-Destruct.
