As stated very good news indeed.
A step in the right direction, now fingers crossed for Windows 7.

I want to see a break it button on my work PC.

Maybe Steve Ballmer should get a Fit It button tattooed on his forehead

Such genius! And will it work? No.

@Moche - the Start button?

err... if they found something that needs fixing, why don't they put it in the OS?
I mean, if something is going wrong then fix the code and put out a patch,
if something CAN go wrong and you have an auto fix, put it in the OS and put out a patch so its done automatically.

They missed a marketing trick here if you ask me. It should be called "Bill'll Fix It".
And just imagine the comfort a logo of Bill's genial smiling face will bring as your quad-core computer slows to a crawl copying a 2MB file and you hit the "Bill'll Fix It! button

I'll believe it when I see it. Microsoft support leaves a lot to be desired so, although this is a good idea, I doubt in practise it will be the silver bullet to end all OS related issues that Microsoft hopes it will be.

Every time windows spits out such a message, neither me, nor adimin--noone but at least the author of the program failed can possibly fix anything--and it'd require him to trace things down in disassembler or something. i must be doing somthing wrong...

@ haim - Because a lot of the time (not all the time) users or 3rd party software are the causes the problems.

For once Microsoft surprises me. Folloiwng on from this, I'd love to see:
Upgrade It
Remove It
Destroy It
Applaud It (for when things actually work as they should)
