| 122037 | 2003-02-17 21:02:00 | OK VMM stands for Virtual Memory Manager. This is hard disk space that pretends to be RAM. Because you use this alot (as you only have 32MB of RAM) its a more of a possibility for errors to occur. Off the top of my head, your win386.swp could be corrupt this is the pagefile where this VMM originates from. You could be out of disk space, Your present settings for VMM are not ideal These settings can be found by right clicking on "My computer" going to properties and going along the tabs. More information can be found in the FAQ's |

| 122039 | 2003-02-17 22:07:00 | Clueless, Having hunted Google a week or so back for a similar error I can assure you that the error needs abbreviating to find anything. Fortunately one of my abbrevations led here (support.microsoft.com). A site that was bookmarked as it was so darn difficult to find! Microsoft's guide to what blue screen error's mean. |

| 122040 | 2003-02-24 06:42:00 | Success... I took the CDR\RW out and reinstalled my old faithfull 8x CDROM and everything seems to be working OK again. It appears that it may be time to upgrade if I want to be able to burn CD's. Thanks for your help. |

| 122041 | 2003-02-24 08:10:00 | Yes that would explain it, the CDRW uses RAM/VMM to move the info it grabs off the CD, if things aren't in order its very easy to run into troubles. THis would also cause some protection faults that you experienced | roofus (483) | ||
