16540 2001-08-06 03:51:00 My mate was playing quake last night on the internet when he got the blue screen of death with the following error message ' Fatal exception OE has occurred at 0028: 0004EB04 in .VXD VCACHE(01) 00000B20'. Any Ideas? Guest (0)

Gives you an idea to what is happening

This problem may occur when all memory below 1MB is allocated prior to initialization of Ios.vxd. Ios.vxd must allocate memory below 1MB for use as real-mode buffers. If Ios.vxd can't allocate this memory, it fails to load, which in turn causes Windows 95 to fail to boot.

Memory below 1MB is typically reserved for components that specifically request it. However, it is possible that Windows 95 will allocate all memory between 1MB and 16MB during initialization, forcing system DMA buffers (which must lie below 16MB) below 1MB, and therefore preventing Ios.vxd from being able to allocate memory below 1MB.
