Me, only listening with half an year and a UNIX brain immediately thought, 'do a dmesg?' ... only to remember that, whilst you can do the equivalent with Event Viewer in Windows, you only do it when you hate yourself enough. xD Sure, dmesg isn't pretty, but at least it is straight to the point. Event Viewer very much is not. o.o
