Thanks,Bob

If that's extender, see this MS article:
Windows Err Msg: Fault in MS-DOS Extender
http://support.microsoft.com/support...s/Q87/2/39.ASP

The causes are the same as those for the "Fault in MS-DOS Extender"
error in the article.

I would check the config.sys file for an error and also run an up to
date Anti-virus scan. If no help then boot to the BIOS and see if
all is ok there.
