Do Start>Run>type in system.ini>OK. This will start and editor for System.ini.
Scroll down to find [386enh] Section. Look for possible MinSPs=5 entry. You may not find one as it is a default expectation.
Regardless replace the line above or add a line that looks like MinSPs=8 (or 12, or 16 if you wish). It can go anywhere in the [386enh] section.
Go to File on Tool bar>select Save>and Reboot.

This roughly duplicates the blue screen that I saw when my system crashed. I failed to retrieve the info because I was in a hurry to leave for work. Of course, I never saw it again, but the system still didn't work properly!

What is the reference to "MS/kb/Q149083"??
