Fatal Exception Errors 95 & 98

Fatal Exception Errors

Windows 95 and 98 address memory in 32 bit mode, unlike Windows 3.1 or Workgroups which can only address the first 4 megs of memory in 32 bit mode. Addressing memory in 32 bit mode is much more demanding on the ram and therefore more prone to problems.

Fatal Exception errors occur when windows tries to address a portion of memory in 32 bit mode and returns a failure code. These errors happen frequently when new "bad" memory is added to a good running system.

Resolution:

1. Memory - take out any new memory added or switch the memory out with new ram.

2. Motherboard - a defective motherboard can cause these errors as well. The motherboard contains memory registers that it uses to address the physical ram placed into the motherboard. Sometimes Fatal Exception Errors can be resolved by increasing the memory wait states in the CMOS or disabling the external cache in the CMOS. Replace the motherboard if needed.

3. Windows 95/98 - these errors can also be caused by a corrupted registry or corrupted windows system files such as the kernel or virtual memory manager. If you suspect this may be the case backup any important data and either delete the windows directory (deltree windows) or fdisk and format the hard drive and reinstall windows. Before doing this make sure you have important data backed up and have everything you need to get the system back up and running such as the cd-rom drivers and windows media.
