Blue Screen on Startup - VNetBIOs
Hi All,
Have Tried the XP version, but can't purchase as money is extra tight. Want to go back to Me until then. I Get a Blue Screen at startup which states: An Exception 0E has occurred at 0028:C006115D in VxD vnetbios (01) + 00000B8D. This was called from 0028:C023F58B in VxD vmm (0C) + 0000058B. It may be possible to continue normally. Then the options "Press any key to continue" or "Press CTL-ALT-DEL to restart". I can use the network ok, BUT this is very unnerving. Please help me find a way to remedy this situation. Temporarily back with WXP corp for now. Machine stats : Processor=AMD Athlon XP @ 1.4 GHZ, 768MB RAM, Giga-Byte 7zxe mainboard, turtle beach santacruz audio, 3com 3c900 nic, ati 700- radeon video, dvd and cd by teac. Any haelp appreciated!!! -- Lester Stiefel In Romans 1 there are qualities of Unregenerate man listed which describe him in the last days. Is your quality found on this list?? |

With 768MB of RAM you're going to have problem such as you're seeing
unless you limit the amount of memory used for the virtual cache. Since you can't boot to Win Me you will need either to boot to DOS and locate and system.ini from a DOS prompt or alternatively temporarily remove one of your RAM chips so as to be able to boot into Win Me and edit system.ini from there. Win Me, like previous Win 9x operating systems can handle up to 2GB of RAM (although often there are problems with greater than 1GB) however if you have more than 512MB it is essential to limit the virtual cache to no more than 512MB since if you allow the cache to exceed 512MB this will mean that you run out of upper memory addresses and get Out of Memory errors.: To limit vcache, open system.ini and add the lines [VCache] MaxFileCache=512000 Note that this will still mean that all memory is available to applications but is simply limiting the amount used as virtual cache memory See KB 253912 - ""Out of Memory" Error Messages with Large Amounts of RAM Installed" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=253912). See also: MS KB 296773 - "Computer May Not Hibernate with More Than 192 MB of Memory" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=296773). This makes reference to an updated file vmm.vxd. Contact Microsoft, explain the problem, and mention 296773 and you should be given details of how to obtain the patch and the password of the day. Note that there should be no support charge for this call other than for any telecom charges incurred in ringing Microsoft. MS KB 304943 - "Computer May Reboot Continuously with More Than 1.5 GB of RAM" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=304943). -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Lester Stiefel wrote: Hi All, Have Tried the XP version, but can't purchase as money is extra tight.
