Computer Vision Lab Lines: 9 Our 780, fortunately, has never exhibited any such behaviour. Our old 11/45, however, used to halt because of bus problems. Continuing it was invariably a bad idea, because it halted instead of executing some instruction that it failed to fetch properly. Since your 780 was running when you halted it, it would seem that what you did shouldn't have had any effect at all. What does halting and continuing do to the hardware state of the machine that DEC hasn't told us?
