  3. 128-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128-bit_computing

    The DEC VAX supported operations on 128-bit integer ('O' or octaword) and 128-bit floating-point ('H-float' or HFLOAT) datatypes. Support for such operations was an upgrade option rather than being a standard feature. Since the VAX's registers were 32 bits wide, a 128-bit operation used four consecutive registers or four longwords in memory.

  4. ECC memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECC_memory

    Memory used in desktop computers is usually neither, for economy. However, unbuffered (not-registered) ECC memory is available, [34] and some non-server motherboards support ECC functionality of such modules when used with a CPU that supports ECC. [35] Registered memory does not work reliably in motherboards without buffering circuitry, and ...

    On 5 January 1975, the 12-bit field that had been used for dates in the TOPS-10 operating system for DEC PDP-10 computers overflowed, in a bug known as "DATE75". The field value was calculated by taking the number of years since 1964, multiplying by 12, adding the number of months since January, multiplying by 31, and adding the number of days since the start of the month; putting 2 12 − 1 ...

  6. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple-precision...

    The "L" extension (not yet certified) will specify 64-bit and 128-bit decimal floating point. [ 43 ] Quadruple-precision (128-bit) hardware implementation should not be confused with "128-bit FPUs" that implement SIMD instructions, such as Streaming SIMD Extensions or AltiVec , which refers to 128-bit vectors of four 32-bit single-precision or ...

  7. File verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_verification

    File verification is the process of using an algorithm for verifying the integrity of a computer file, usually by checksum.This can be done by comparing two files bit-by-bit, but requires two copies of the same file, and may miss systematic corruptions which might occur to both files.

  8. Blue screen of death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_screen_of_death

    BSoDs in the Windows NT family initially used the 80×50 text mode with a 720×400 screen resolution, but changed to use the 640×480 screen resolution starting with Windows 2000 up to 7. Windows 2000 used its built-in kernel mode font, Windows XP, Vista, and 7 use the Lucida Console font, and Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 used the Segoe UI ...

  9. Physical Address Extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension

    However, "client" versions of 32-bit Windows (Windows XP SP2 and later, Windows Vista, Windows 7) limit physical address space to the first 4 GB for driver compatibility [16] even though these versions do run in PAE mode if NX support is enabled. Windows 8 and later releases will only run on processors which support PAE, in addition to NX and SSE2.
