Hi,
When ever I access Network neighbourhood and browse any folders, I get the blue screen saying 'exception OE(0029....) has occurred in VXD VMM'....
But some times it works fine.
I have new D-link 10/100 Mbps network adapter.The drivers are all perfect.
I also tried MS Regclean to fix any registry problems.
The mother board is Octek (VIA MVP4 Chipset) with a lot of jumper settings in it for AMD K6 550 processor.Is there any thing to do with this?
HDD is 40 GB seagate.
(The system was formatted twice before WHen I was getting diff kind of Fatal Exceptions or Exception OE Continiously)
Any Ideas?? Plz help..

I can find lots of refernces to an exception OE (0028: ), but none for 0029. Also, is there a number in () after the VXD VMM ?

I had the same problem and it drove me crazy. I blamed everything. I also have an AMD K6 and it turns out this is apparently a flaw with the CPU chip. It is heat sentitive. You may find that with a bigger CPU fan (helped me a little), or leaving the case open (helped me a lot), the problem will minimize or disappear altogether

Heat in excess of 60C for AMD cpu is ONE documented cause of the OE error. There are, of course, a bunch of other reasons for it, too. Would be very strange if guru's cpu heated up to 60C or more only when Network Neighborhood were accessed...
