Hello,
I sometimes have a problem when booting. The system starts. You get the startup logo. Then, almost finished, you can see the cyan background with the mousepointer. Then, it switches to the blue screen giving following error:
Windows
A fatal exception 0E has occured at 0028:c0013F7A in VXD VMM(01)+00012F7A. The current application will be terminated.
* Press any key etc. etc
* Press CTRL+ALT+DEL etc. etc.
AFter this I do a shutdown and restart the system, which goes allright.
Has anybody an idea what is causes this? Is it a windows driver that has been corrupted or what? The Micro$oft knowledge base has an entry that Matrox video cards can be responsible and one should update to the latest drivers. I now use PD 5.30.
The problem really started after I converted the C: drive to FAT32. The conversion process went ok but the restart not. I had to restart twice. Then, after a startup, the system sometimes hung with only a cyan background and the mousepointer (which you could not move). I had to reset. Then somebody suggested to boot in safe mode and then boot normally again to generate a new bootlog.txt.
I did this and the problem changed. The PC no langer blocks, but generates the fatal exception. Yesterday, if even rebooted spontaniously. Windows 98 itself boots ok, because after the reboot it complained about an improper shutdown.
Now, a guy here from our company helpdesk looked at my system spec and said the Matrox G200 is the probable cause. I should install the latest drivers.
What wonders me is that the change from FAT16 to FAT32 could provoke this behaviour. So I decided to ask the real Matrox experts. Should I upgrade to the lastest driver version (PD 5.52) or the latest certified driver version (PD 5.20) or is upgrading from PD 5.30 useless.
TIA
Regards,
Matt
