The bug is not related to any video card. I can reproduce the bsod on ati,
nvidia and even on vmware virtual machine cards. Anyone can try it.

Windows XP Pro En SP3 Remote Desktop Blue Screen Procedure:

Here comes the procedure to reproduce a severe bug in the windows xp
terminal service (RDPDD.dll):

Set up a windows xp pro host and connect then from a remote
computer via remote desktop.

1)
connect and logon (create new session) at color depth 15bit

2)
disconnect (leave the user logged on)

3)
connect and logon to the created session at color depth 16bit

4)
disconnect

5)
connect and logon to the created sesseion at color despth 15bit

-> voila, the remote desktop host system reboots!

- I can reproduce this bug on all 4 availble computers (all xp pro
with sp3) at my location.
