invalid page fault

[tony]

Hi,
Everytime I try to open Internet Explorer 6.0 I get a
Invalid Page Fault in Module Kernel 32 .dll.I have tried a
few ideas I have found on the other web sites but to no
avail to correct this problem.I have deleted and
reinstalled 6.0 and still get the same error in 5.5 and
when I reinstall 6.0.I have deleted and reinstalled My
password files as someone said this could give such an
error if they are corrupted.I have tried to repair 6.0 and
again it is of no help.Using Windows 98.

Thank You,
tony

B. You may need new video drivers. Check the site for your video board
manufacturer. Meanwhile you can do the following:
1. Use the default mouse pointers.
2. Turn down your color depth. (Right click the desktop and choose
Properties | Appearance | Settings) Some people find that increasing color
depth helps.
3. Turn down your graphics hardware acceleration. (For Win 98, Start |
Settings | Control Panel | System | Performance | Graphics button) You will
see little, if any, performance degradation.
4. Turn off your desktop wallpaper.

If these make the problem go away you need new video drivers.

If you have an ATI video board, try adding these lines to System.ini

Hi Frank,
Thank You for the help, I will try them tonight when I get
home from work.As for updating the video drivers, I don't
think I can, as this is an old IBM Aptiva Pentium 200,
about 7 years old. with 2MB on board memory from ATI and a
old 2MB Matrox accelerator.

Thank You,
Tony

If you have an ATI video board, especially one that old, try adding these
