    • Critical
    • None
    • Win32SS
    • None
    • Official ReactOS r73029 GCC build, with VBox 5.0.20 r106931 additions installed (but I don't think the additions are to blame here).

    Description

      Steps to perform to reproduce the bug:
      1- Make something crash such that a hard-error msgbox appears. For example, add a __debugbreak(); call to the wmain function of the eventlog service (in base/services/eventlog/eventlog.c).
      EDIT: The BSOD seems to happen only when you make eventlog crash that way. If something else crashes (like e.g. regedit when it closes), the harderror msgbox doesn't trigger the BSOD.
      2- When the msgbox appears, try to move it with the mouse. You get the following crash, see attached file reactos_r73029_harderror_move_win32k_crash.txt.
