- 0x00000000 problems
- Posted by Mike on May 1st, 2008
Hi !
Please Help
All of a sudden I am getting
"The instruction at "0x00000000" referenced memory at "0x00000000".
The memory could not be :read"
This started after latest win updates, I think, No other programs have been
installed
Have run memory checker - OK
Virus and spyware checks - OK
Hard drive split into 2 partitions C = Boot drive 80g and G = Data 80g
Changed to spare hard drive 1 partition 80g
Same OS Win XP Pro + SP2
All programs work - no error messages
Replaced original HD - problems are back
So I take it that the Computer ( motherboard etc ) are OK
Fault must be in windows OS
Without formatting and reinstalling how can this be fixed
