Make A Computer Crash at Startup/ Prank

his is a VERY simple prank to pull on someone with a fairly devatsating result. 

NOTE: This can be easily reversed through safe mode.


Ingredients:

computer
notepad [within computer]

once memorized, this process can be done in as few as 30 seconds--very easy once known

Step 1: First, You Need to Access Notepad

Go to the computer's start menu> programs> accessories> notepad and open notepad.

I have already used notepad so its in my start list.

Step 2: Creating The Crash File

Within notepad for each line type start.
NOTE: the more times you type start, the faster the computer will crash, and vice versa

Now, below the starts you have typed, name the file anything you want. I used compcrash.bat for display purposes, ideally the name should be less inconspicuous such as iTunes.bat or System32.bat <this is the one I used for my friend =X

Whatever you name the file it MUST be a .bat or it will not work.

CAUTION: If you want to try this on your computer DO NOT include the file name within the text document, simply type out start for a few lines.

Step 3: Saving Your Crash/ Prank File

When you have finished with all of the text within your new text document go to file> save as> and save it to the desktop.

I will save it as compcrash.bat because that is what I typed into the document itself.

Again, it needs to be the same filename.bat or it will not work.

Step 4: A Caution If You Want To Attempt on Your Own Computer

If you are dying to see the results of your newly created crash file, you can do it now.

IT WILL CRASH YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU OPEN THE FILE WITH THE NAME OF THE FILE WITHIN THE TEXT DOCUMENT.

Your computer will be fine with a startup, but I accordingly take no responsibility for anything you do on your own computer or anyone else's for that matter.
