94764 2002-10-31 03:18:00 Every 5th or 6th time I start the computer I get the following message:

Windows
A fatal exception OE has occured at 0167:BFF8AB97. The current application will be terminated.

Once its restarted it must go thru Safe Mode & restarted again.

It has Window 98 SE loaded & is an AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2000+ with on board sound & video (NVIDIA GeForce2 Intergrated GPU) & has 224MB RAM. I have searched Microsoft's errror messages with no luck, I have also done a general search of bulletin boards & found 2 other people with the same problem but no solution. Bios settings have been checked & rechecked!

Anyone got any suggestion? I'm getting very annoyed! X-(

To use, goto Tools/registry clean up/do them all. A very usefull program.

94769 2002-10-31 19:18:00 Sounds like you may have to try and find what is conflicting as windows loads, by selectively disabling programs via msconfig.

Here is one site with the same error message found via Google:
www.nocrash.com

And here is another site similar to the one you've already seen but may have something more:
www.infinisource.com
