Nearly every computer that Strong Bad has owned has malfunctioned at some point, and they have done so in some famously tragic ways, most often with a Flagrant System Error or by exploding (the latter ending the computer's run to be replaced by a newer, better, but still obsolete version).

System Errors
The System Error screen appears whenever Strong Bad's computer crashes. It is an obvious reference to the blue screen of death that appears on Windows computers.

Strong Bad's Computers Exploding
Some of Strong Bad's Computers are also known to explode spontaneously. Probably the most famous of these explosions was the first explosion of the Tandy 400, which was later fixed (though it still had some malfunctions, such as deleting emails he wanted saved, and saving emails he wanted deleted).
Appearances
- Email gimmicks (Tandy; this is shown again in a flashback in personal favorites)
- Biz Cas Fri 3 (Corpy NT6, puppet style)
- Email retirement (Tandy)
Miscellaneous Malfunctions
Strong Bad's computers often have various malfunctions, sometimes due to explosions or viruses.
Appearances
- Email sisters — The Tandy spontaneously deletes Strong Bad's email, then saves another email when Strong Bad tries to delete it.
- Email virus — The Compy refuses to delete the virus email, reports more than 400,000 viruses, then blue-screens before the contents of the screen pour onto the carpet.
The Paper
Following 172 emails of service, The Paper and its printer fell from an unknown location above Strong Bad, breaking it. After a few moments of reminiscing, Strong Bad burned the paper, in accordance with its last wishes. The printer's fate, however, is unknown. It was almost immediately replaced by an inkjet printer and the New Paper.
Appearances
- Email the paper
