...Some Windows Phone 8 users ran into an amusing situation where Windows failed to start and the screen showed an error message which instructed them to “Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.” It didn’t say where to insert the disc.
That message came up because Windows Phone 8 is based on the Windows NT kernel, a kernel which first came out in 1993. It has been used as the core of all Windows desktop operating systems since Windows 2000, including XP, Vista, 7, and 8. As a result, Windows Phone 8 sometimes thinks it’s a desktop operating system.
