One of the worst things can can happen to you or your workmates is for your computer to crash while in use. This can result in a massive loss of data and a loss of hours of hard work. Some data recovery programs can assist you in recovering this precious data but the best method is to understand why your computer can crash and to stop it before it can become a problem.
A crash is a condition where a program (either an application or part of the operating system) stops performing its expected function and also stops responding to other parts of the system. Often the offending program may simply appear to freeze. If this program is a critical part of the operating system kernel the entire computer may crash (a system crash).
Your machine can crash in three different styles; an application crash, a website server crash or an operating system crash.
An application crash occurs when the application (program) you are using performs an operation which is not allowed by the operating system. Typical examples of an application crash can be lack of memory, execute privileged or invalid instructions, poor code writing, lack of permissions and attempting to access other system.
The software running the server behind a website may crash, rendering it inaccessible entirely or providing only an error message instead of normal content. This is a problem on the website owners end and unless you are the webmaster you cannot rectify it.
An operating system crash commonly occurs when an hardware exception occurs that cannot be handled. Operating system crashes can also occur when internal sanity-checking logic within the operating system detects that the operating system has lost its internal self-consistency.
