I used to have a Commodore 64. I had one specific game that would not load successfully unless my monitor ( a TV actually ) was turned off. So I had to type "LOAD *,8,1" or whatever, then turn off the monitor, then press RETURN. I'd turn the monitor back on after the disk drive lights went off.

In 1999 I had an old (at the time) Pentium-133 that wouldn't let me reinstall windows when the network card was plugged in. If I did that the mouse, the graphics card, the network card, and the secondary harddrive wouldn't work. If i unplugged the networking card when i installed there were no issues.
