Buffer overrun detected - How do I diagnose?
Greetings Visual C++ Experts,
I have a problem that generates a MS Visual C++ message that I'm hoping you can diagnose.
I use Windows 98 SE. Lately when I attempt to load Windows Explorer or IE I receive this message:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Buffer overrun detected
Program C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE
A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated. OK
When I click OK the system hangs and I need to reboot - the only thing I've done differently is to install a new printer - does this message indicate that the printer is using extra system resources?
Is there a way to control the buffer? Any direction on where to start would be appreciated..
Thanks
