# Can you actually do screen shots
on blue screens of death?

# Not sure
'spose it depends exactly how borked your computer is. There's plenty of image results for "blue screen of death" on google, though.

# I supose you could do it
On a floopy/d drive disk error

# depends
what sort of hardware you have, but generally no.
/edit the only way I can think of it is if you had a video hooked up to your PC & a TV capture card to capture the image when you were playing it back ... but you would have to be very silly to try that.... is easier to make your own :)

# or utilise the fact that it's just a blue screen with some writing in system
to fake it

# My camera
makes weird stripes on the screen on photos.

# You need a longer exposure time
longer than several screen refreshes which are say 1/60 or 1/85 of a second

(At least I think so, I've never owned a serious camera)
