Does anyone know what that error message on a blue screen indicates? The unit locks up on next keystroke. Win 98 S.E.

Dec,
Thanks! I think response # 1 was right, but # 2 didn't take into consideration that computer locks up at that point and is disabled. That's hard to live with! He probably didn't know that. Anyhow, thanks for the tip! Bob

BOB,
I have the same error. Did you find what causes it and a fix?

I haven't really determined the problem and I don't have the quicktime 2.1.2 16bit, so that isn't the problem. It mostly but not always when I enable a dual monitor setup and then run Premiere 5.1. The program barely begins to load and then bails out. Sometimes I can run premiere, AND THEN enable the second monitor and it at times will work for hours.

(Win98SE AMDK62 500mhz)

Just had the very same problem having just used the upgrade Windows 98se disk to upgrade a Pentium 200MMX from Windows 95 version B, which I had to do in order to get the USB card I'd installed to work properly. The machine was fine before. This seems to occur when a program locks up and you press ctrl-alt-delete: instead of getting the close program dialog, I just get the dreaded blus screen.

Maybe that can help :

Error: Fatal Exception OE Has Occurred
Description: While running the program an error message appears as, “Fatal Exception OE has occurred. . . .” This issue is caused by an incompatibility between the QuickTime Movie Player and the video card driver. You may resolve the issue by editing a line in the QTW.INI file when running Windows® 3.1/95/98. In addition, it may be necessary to lower the Hardware Acceleration if you are running Windows® 95/98. It is also recommended that you contact the manufacturer of your personal computer for instructions on updating your video card driver.

Solution: The following are the instructions for editing the QTW.INI file:
1. Click on File and choose Run. (Note: for Windows® 3.1, click File on the menu bar and then choose Run.)
2. In the command line type: QTW.INI, and then press the ENTER key on the keyboard.
3. Look for the line in the section [Video] that reads as Optimize=Driver.
4. Edit the line so that it reads as Optimize=BMP.
5. Click File on the menu bar and then select Save.
6. Close the QTW.INI file.
7. Try to run the program again. If the issue is resolved you do not need to perform any further steps.
8. If the issue persists and you are running Windows® 95/98, then proceed with the steps below.
The instructions for lowering the Hardware Acceleration for Windows® 95/98(not for Windows® 3.1/2000/NT) are as follows:
1. Click on the Start button, select Settings, and then click the Control Panel.
2. Double click on the System icon. The System Properties dialog box will open.
3. Click the Performance tab.
4. Click on the Graphics button at the bottom of the dialog box.
5. Click on the Hardware Acceleration tab and slide it two notches to the left. (Change the setting to Basic Accelerator Functions.)
6. Click on the OK button to close out the System Properties dialog box.
7. Click on Yes when prompted to restart your personal computer. The computer will restart.
8. Run the program and the issue should be resolved.
It is also recommended that you update your video driver whether the issue is resolved by one of the two methods above.

Consult your Windows® documentation or contact the manufacturer of your personal computer for instructions on how to update the video card driver.
