Error messages, memory cannot be "read" or written"
I am running Windows XP Pro SP1 with 512 MB DDR. I had
an additional 256 MB, but I have removed them temporarily. From time to time I get an error message of which the following is an example: The instruction at "0x77f596b5" referenced memory at "0xfefffff8". The memory could not be "read". This is an Application Error in IMNOTIFY.EXE. I get such errors about three times a day, for almost any program that I am running. In other words, the cited program varies, the locations vary, and the problem can be either "read" or "write." I click OK and then the message disappears, and the referenced program closes. I have tested the memory and it is OK. Searches for the error message show that it occurs for all sorts of programs and does not indicate a memory fault. In my case it happens for various programs. I have downloaded all updates. I am betting that this is a software problem of some sort. I'd like to increase the number of buffers, as we used to do in DOS, but I am unable. Can anyone help? |

These messages are most often associated with a programming error in an application program or device driver. The "...could not be read" type messages are usually because the programmer forgot to assign a value to a data item before trying to read information from it. There is nothing at the address and therefore it cannot be read. I cannot find out very much about IMNotify except that it might be a part of a product called ELM Performance Manager. Do you have this product installed on your computer? Hope this is of some assistance. Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
