Which boils down to that the program went nuts. Most of the error codes that tend to mean that the program has run amok and is executing anything as code. Do that long enough and it will trigger some processor exception. This includes various error codes that that sound like something else (address error, divide by zero, FPU...). Of course those errors can also be caused by the normal code doing something wrong. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
