Fatal Exception Errors
While printing from a Win98SE computer, I often get a friendly blue screen which says "a fatal exception error has occured:0167:B0075043."
What could be the cause of this and what does the # represent??

A few possabilities to start with;
your printer drivers are incorrect/out of date/ corrupt. Download and install the latest version from the manufacturers website
Ensure you have sufficient disk space remaining for the print job to spool (HD should run at <80% capacity)
Check printer cable and replace if necessary

The "Fatal Exception" error means a program has done something it was not suppose to do.
The number it gives is the location in ram where the error occurred. Mostly that number does not mean anything to you, unless you have a core dump of your computer's ram and know how to read assembler code.
This is what you should do:
1. Reboot the computer (clears ram memory)
2. Run Scan disk for windows (Standard Test)
3. Delete the windows temp files (c:\windows\temp) Only delete the files in the temp folder, leave the folder alone.
Doing this steps can help prevent the Fatal exception errors from happening over and over again.
optionally:
Go into control panel and use the Internet Options icon and Delete the temporary internet files.
Defrag you hard drive.
These optional steps will help your computer to run better.
