Default Re: Access Violation
WinME was a poorly done OS. It was an attempt to get away from buggy, old 16 bit legacy code, and this it did reasonably well. Unfortunately, there were no protections or warnings to prevent 16 bit code from running. Any time a 16 bit program or driver was loaded, it crashed.
