Hi Cuties,
Allow me to introduce you to the Annirose 1808 HD Webcam with Microphone, USB PC Computer Web Cam, AKA, what killed my personal computer.
So I bought this little gem (sic) back on April 3, 2023 for around $20.00 on Amazon. I figured why not? Low price, high customer reviews, in fact it was listed as one of the top sellers on Amazon.
So I waited a few days and it finally arrived.
I unboxed it (sorry no video) and plugged it into my aging PC and got a blue screen of death.
So I did what anyone would do. I unplugged the camera and did a reboot of the computer. The PC came back to like but when I plugged it in again. Same results. Blue screen of death
Wikipedia says that "The Blue Screen of Death (BSod), officially known as a Stop error. Blue screen error, fatal error, bugcheck" and so on.
Basically it is indicating that the computer can no longer operate.
So, what to do with a rather expensive paperweight?
I reached out to the seller and they offered a refund of the cost of the webcam. Holy shit Batman. Can we buy a new computer for $20.00?
No. So the best I could do was to post the following review and do my due diligence that no one who reads this blog post will fall victim to this bullshit.
