Fatal exception 06 has occured at 0000:00008058

[Guest]

Dear listers,

System Dell Optiplex GX 260. OS W98SE. Networked. IE v6.

Thank you for your help and advise. My IT department was not able to help
and was suggesting recovery (i.e. reformat and restore original mirror). Out
of the blue, 'A fatal exception 06 has occured at 0000:00008058' in my
machine, 'The current application will be terminated'. It occurs at variable
interval from the time I logged in to my account on my machine, as quick as
5-10 minutes to 2 hours. It causes 'BSOD'. It occurs when I clicked on the IE
icon or if a link that I clicked opened a new window. There appear to be no
triggering factor(s) or pattern. This day 3 of the problem.

I am able to open new window via File -> Window initially after the start of
the 'BSOD' and electing to terminate the current program but at some point
'BSOD' become permanent and I have to re-start or on-off. I could not googled
or KB'd my error to glean some information or to take remedial steps.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you once again.

Kind regards,
bw

Dear listers,

Just wondering whether anyone would be able to cast an issue on this. After
further checking last night regarding this error - there seem to be a lot of
fatal error 06, which is caused by one of three things but none of the causes
stated lend itself (to me at least) to an understanding that would allow me
to take remedial steps.

Hopefullly someone would be able to help.

Thank you,
bw
