Worst Things About a Computer

List of all thing that make you want to smash your computer.

The Top Ten

  1. Viruses

    I had a really bad virus. I got a MacBook Air a year ago, and when I searched "programs for MacBook" (I was bored) I found a site that I downloaded. It turns out that I got a really bad virus on my laptop, and I was forced to do some sort of reboot. I don't know computers that well, but I know a really bad virus when I see one.

    This happened to this computer that I'm on from some website, don't know which one. But I know I'm never playing another computer game again. EVER. Please don't get a virus on yours. Be careful which sites you visit. If you see a pop-up ad, get off the site asap. My mother taught me this.

  2. Internet connection problems

    You can't access the internet and it doesn't matter what you did, it doesn't affect the speed of your internet connection. Arguments with the dial up company always occurs, they keep insisting that you should wait, have connection problems and it always occurs

    First world problems at its finest. As the computer has issues, you rage and cry for thirty minutes or so...

    My slow internet connection kills a little part inside of me every time

  3. The Blue Screen of Death

    When you're overclocking and you get the BSOD, life just sucks. I don't see why so many people vote for viruses, since if you're still having virus problems, you are doing something wrong. I haven't had virus problems in years, just sometimes getting viruses from school, but that's because they never get proper virus protection.

    It happens by many reasons, and just showing the code that makes me to search on Google about the meaning, and how should I do that if I have only one pc.

    Yup. This is what happens to Microsoft computers. My mom got it and I went insane (like happy insane) Because I've never seen it before

  4. When you want to go in a website and it says ''This page is having problem'' (or something like that) and you keep trying getting on it but it doesn't work

    I mean, I've been like trying to get on a site and like I'm " what the heck " for like until I get over it, like 3 hours

    Waiting... searching Google.com... GETS ME IN THIS PAGE... "sorry, can't load. Sorry, Google.com is not responding. We need to kill the page." Next time I load, "sorry, but there's a problem" Now I'm done.

  5. Crashes

    Don't play games involving car crashes (pun intended)

    It just randomly shuts down it's so annoying

  6. Software incapability / glitches

    What do you think I am going to say?

  7. When it doesn't read your CD

    Why yes. I almost flipped out because it was very hard to burn discs using Windows 8. Cause? IT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE DARN EMPTY DISK I PUT IN! IT JUST KEPT EJECTING THE DISK AND KEPT SAYING TO INSERT A DISK-yet I did. It kept doing it till' I got mad.

    Sorry for the capitals.

    I get like pissed off and I'm like " what the hell " and I just hate it when it happens

  8. Uncontinuable downloads and uploads

    some sites doesnt support continuable downloads

  9. Freezing

    very annoying, I had to restart my computer over and over again and the reason is Viruses which is #1

    In these moments I could throw out the computer on the window

    ANNOYING! That is why I want to reformat my PC1

  10. When it shuts off after it gets too hot

    This happens to me all the time and when it does I just feel like I want to smash the computer into millions of pieces

    Why does it get too hot? You're using Windows!

    My old laptop used to get too hot it probably would of shut off if it was on too long

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    When it takes forever to open an app

    Sometimes when I want to open itunes my laptop takes forever to open itunes, it so annoying

  12. ?

    When it takes forever to shutdown

    My laptop does this sometimes it takes forever to turn off, it so annoying

    13. The Contenders

  13. Auto updating

  14. When it's slow for no reason

    I trhy to play Cop Patrol on ROBLOX, I click play, nothing. I click play again, and it shows me the upgrading roblox message, then I get to the grey loading screen, it loads fast, but then the name of the game and creator pops up and it slows down so much, that I bet it would take decades to load, and then you get the annoying ID 17 problem, you lost connection to the game or the game has shut down message.

    I hate it when the internet connection is very slow, you can't download, upload, surf the net, listen and watch videos and music and you can't even click the check button on this site.

  15. Anti-viruses that can't kill virus and trojans but delete your important files

  16. When it shuts off for no reason at a random time

    It just shuts down while I'm playing a game

  17. Heat

  18. When you keep get warnings that ''there is a new update available''

    I swear this is just built in by companies to annoy people. I think computers should just stop developing. And leave me in peace.

    Just use another OS That doesn't say there is a update or does the updates automatically, sadly.

  19. When random ads keep showing up

    One time I got SEVENTEEN ADS on one YouTube page.

    Incredibly annoying, but 90% of the time, an ordinary adblocker can remove them.

  20. Can't name your songs, albums, documents etc. with symbols like less than, greater than, etc

    What about / and. You can use < and >. The reason is because of the filesystem.

  21. Pop-ups

    My parents think that whenever pop-ups occur, it's automatically a virus.

    Script errors for example.

    Can't even go on mediafire.

    With script errors every time you move the mouse a script error pops up.

    Its it is a pop up.

  22. Reformat

    I hate it when the computer broke down because of trojans, viruses, malwares, spywares and you have to call someone to fix it by reformating it and it takes a while to install all your favorite online programs again.

    more time for reinstalling those programs

  23. When you play a game and it justs shuts down

    I'm just playing a game on like those websites and then it just shut down, 2 seconds later, you'll see my computer out the window

  24. When CD-ROM games don't work even though your computer fits the requirment

    It is the worst scenario. you buy a game you wanted for so long, update your computer to fit in the requirements, spend your all money on it and gosh it dosen't work. so frustrating. happened to me many times. always painfull. even more when the same game runs on a friend's pc.

    Who still uses CD-ROM games anyway?

  25. The internet connection speed depends on the performance of the computer

    it also causes uncontinuable downloads and uploads

    Yep Mexico's Internet is the worst and slow!

    esp when your computer is so slow

  26. It becomes so laggy when you open dozens of websites, videos etc

    Your fault, not your computer's

  27. Very limited storage capacity and it becames unusable once it is 100 percent filled

    Get rid of windows, clear your cache, DELETE SOFTWARE YOU DON'T USE!
