    When I open a CD from one of our Cdtowers I get the following message: “Divide by zero or overflow error. This is a system error. I’ve also tried installing the CD on the local hard drive and when I start the application the above message is repeated.

      The divide error messages are caused when the computer or software attempts run a process that attempts to perform a mathematical division by zero, which is an illegal operation. This error message could also be caused by a computer or software limitation or conflict with computer memory.

      This issue can be caused by any of the following possibilities:

      Hardware / software incompatibility
      Error with autoexec.bat / config.sys
      Driver issue
      Software issue
      External Cache / 2nd level Cache
      Improper calculation
      Operating System issue
      Hardware issue

      I’ve also see this error mentioned with Microsoft FoxPro softwere. See this link to that Microsoft article if that is the case:
