Windows Error Messenges.
Windows is notorious for opaque error messages. What could be worse than an illegal operation message with numbers and references to the "kernel?" Yikes! It's OK, you can figure them out, maybe.

There are at least two programs that will help you interpret these messages. Both WinErr 1.0 and MS Windows Error Messages are free.

From Kim Komando website.

chalky,

Here is a link to the Kim Komando page: http://www.komando.com/

I could only find the article franca refers to in Google's cache:

Here are the links to the two programs mentioned:
