One of my computers has been giving me GPFs while working Word XP. It automatically came up with one of those message boxes that just shut out Word when I closed down. I was just scrolling down with my cursor within the document when it happened.
It did this three times recently, doing various functions, so I can’t say what the particular cause is. But this is the message it came up with when I clicked on the details button.
WINWORD caused a general protection fault

I have run scandisk and defragged the hard drive and the error continues. The O/S is Windows 98SE. Any ideas??
