It's not that messy for me.
That's because that screen is from windows 1.0 (which came out in 1992}

Re: Which is worst
I've never had a crash screen in my whole life. xD
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

Windows 1.01 was released in the 80:s

That's how you fix it. ¬¬

The BSoD warns you for hardware problems or driver problems.
The bluscreen itself will not erase your harddrive

Nah, it says it's dumping memory which it means RAM (I think). That just means that Windows is deleting everything stored in the computers RAM. Look up RAM if you don't know what it is

Every bit in the RAM can only be stored for a fraction of a second.
It might be that it's dumping all the process information and the information about the driver/hardware project to an error log or something.

I thank you.. yes I know what RAM is. It's ...... DARNIT! well I don't know what it stands for, but its the memory that your computer stores temporarily. Like.... what page your web browser is on and the game your playing. amirite?

Re: Which is worst
That Mac crash screen is extremely old. It looks about 80s-era.
Anyway, I've never had the new Mac crash screen before, but I get BSOD'd every second time I turn on my PC. I don't know if I just need to clear some memory or what, but I'd say it's the worst.
I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

No, not really,
RAM stands for Random Access Memory and it's used for storing instructions for the CPU.
A simplified description:
The Instructions are sent to the RAM which sends it to the CPU cache and then the ALU (arithmetic logic unit) calculates it and then returns the answer.
If you run many application at the same time the RAM can't store more instructions the instructions are sent to a virtual memory (it could be loacated in the hard drive, or in a USB drive).
This thing is called memory hierachy.
