The interface was also used in early Windows 98 builds for ACPI subsystem errors, which notably used a red background instead of blue. Windows 9x is unique in that it allows the user to continue after a system error, although it often resulted in an unstable system. Windows 95 and later uses the modal interface to report severe system errors instead of exiting to DOS, which earned it the blue screen of death nickname. Steve Ballmer wrote the original message for the Task Manager warning. The task manager allowed the user to terminate an unresponsive program, or if there's no unresponsive programs, simply allow the user to exit the screen or press Ctrl+ Alt+ Del again to reboot the system. The interface was also used for a simple task manager in Windows 3.1, which could be invoked by pressing Ctrl+ Alt+ Del while running Windows in the 386 enhanced mode. However, severe system errors still caused Windows to exit back to MS-DOS, similarly to the older versions. In Windows 3.x, this was mostly used in situations where a program couldn't continue running until the user resolved an issue, such as device conflicts or disk swaps. The look of the modal dialog was virtually unchanged through the rest of the classic Windows series.
Initially, it used a black background, although Windows 3.1 later changed it to blue.
