- Hi,
- I need some help with Windows 3.1! Every now and then an application will
- quit on me and windows reports:
- Illegal Instruction Error
- in module GDI.EXE
- Address 0001:0624
- I have no idea what could cause it. I checked my system for bad
- memmory and hardware conflict and came up empty. Win3.1 was installed
- from floppies onto my 486-33 with 8MB of memory. I know that it is not
- a problem with the video card or EMM386.exe or any other software
- besides windows. (removed them all and error still ocuured). I also
- turned of the cash and shadowing of memory, no effect. The memory has
- also been tested many times.
- If anybody out there knows anything I would appreciate the help!
-
- Thanks !
