    Unhappy Memory Error

    Can someone please tell me why I get this error. When I boot into the op system it says "Driver memory error" and it occurs everytime the computer is booted up. It goes away without clicking on it and causes no problems that I can see thus far. Anyone else seen this?

    Most likely there is a problem with the drivers for a vid card, a net card or ide card if you've got one. It has to do with rom on the card that bios looks for in order to initialize. I would reinstall drivers for any of these cards.

    Does it by any chance happen to mention S3 driver memory error?...if so, you've got Kak worm. Look in the C drive root folder. If there is a file called ae.kak, that confirms Kak worm. It's your old autoexec.bat renamed.
    The damn thing's been around since Oct 99 so any reasonably new antivirus will deal with it, but you also need to check all your Outlook/Outlook Express mail folders with a memory resident virus checker running to find and delete infected emails or you will re-infect your comp. http://vil.nai.com will give you removal info.
    I think I know just enough to know how much I don't know... I think...
