I don't know if anyone can help me, but I have a printing problem that has just come up. It usually occurs in Netscape, but can occur from a Adobe Acrobat as well. Once it occurs, then I cannot print from any program and have to reboot. Dr. Watson says the following: ------------------------------ Windows Graphics Device Interface core component accessed memory improperly or encountered some nonspecific error.

I have copied those from another machine and overwrote the files on my machine. That still did not help. I have reloaded WIN 98, and Netscape....to no avail. I am wondering if I have a bad memory chip? Any thoughts on what to do or how to go about diagnosing the problem further? Thanks to all. Scott
