If a data miscompare is detected, or ANY unexpected Windows API failure occurs, details on the error will appear in this window. For example, when stress testing a USB Flash Drive, we removed the flash drive unexpectedly and received the following errors:

In the above screenshot, you can see that the stress test failed. Each background thread lets you know exactly why it failed and/or stopped the stress test. In this case, each three failed a file system API with an error of "The system cannot find the file specified."

If a data miscompare were detected, busSTRESS would show you which file had the miscompare and where in the file the miscompare occurred. You could then use the Examine File feature to view the data file.
