My favorite Windows error used to be “Keyboard not found, please press F1 to continue.”

Today I discovered I have a new one:

“Please go to the Control Panel to install and configure system components.”

Uh, okay. What system components? The ones that all worked yesterday? I haven’t added, removed, installed, uninstalled, or changed this system IN ANY WAY. What the holy hell are you talking about, you goblinbox, you?
