I am getting Under a SHS banner

Run tme error'6'
overflow

Any ideas what this is and how to find or cure it
 
Hi there,
I too have started to get that message. I've been googling and trying to
find out for days now what it means and what to do. No luck. I did a clean
boot but it didn't help. Have you resolved it, and if so, how?

thanks,
Judy

This message is coming from some application. Your first step in
troubleshooting is figuring out where it comes from.
 
thanks for your reply. Could you point me in the troubleshooting direction? I
don't know where to begin, i.e., how to figure out which application is
causing this.

You want to stop running programs one at a time until doing so stops
the message. Then the last program you stopped is the culprit.

First take note of what's running when you get the message (include
background programs too). The problem has to be coming from something
on that list.

How often does the message appear? If often, stop one of the programs
on the list and see if that stops the message. Try that with each
program.

If only when you boot, then stop the startup programs one at a time,
until you find which one does it.

A little experimentation should find it.
 
The message appears when I boot and every 10 or 15 minutes when I've got
Explorer, Word, and Outlook Express open.

How do I determine which background programs are running? And how do I stop
the "startup programs" when I boot? All I do is turn on the computer and the
message appears. Sorry if I sound like a complete dolt.

thanks for this.
