Abstract
The problems that can occur in Windows can be arranged into the categories: invalid page faults, general protection faults, fatal exceptions, protection errors, and kernel errors. The modern CPUs are designed to detect situations in which an executable program attempts to do something that is nonsensical or “invalid” in terms of the hardware and software configuration of the system. The most common problems are stack faults, invalid instructions, divide errors, and general protection faults. Windows Protection error messages occur when a computer attempts to load or unload a virtual device driver (VxD). This error message is a way to let a user know that there is a problem with the device driver. The diagnostic tool, Dr Watson, is supplied as part of the Windows operating system that generate a snapshot of the current software environment, which can provide invaluable information of what was happening at the point at which the fault occurred.
