Summary:

PROBLEM ID: WIN9103013

SYMPTOMS

When an application is in the process of loading, it experiences an

unrecoverable application error (UAE).

CAUSE

The size of the preload area, as reported by the Microsoft Windows

Resource Compiler, is an exact multiple of 64K (10000h).

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows

version 3.0. To avoid this problem, change the size of the preload

area by modifying the application's module definition (DEF) file or

resource (RC) file to change the number of segments that are marked

PRELOAD.

This problem was corrected in Windows version 3.1.
