What does a SYSLOGPM "Exception type: c0000005"
mean? An 0005 is a Bounds Check . . .

I must have a lot of hardware glitches! The two workstations on my desk
both "glitch" regularly, though I think one of them is a video driver
problem (Elsa) and my note to install SciTech is slowly moving up my
"Install These" list. Don't know if a video driver can cause a c0000005
in PMWP.DLL.

Now that UniMaint finally works (the new version 5.10.25) and I have
clean INI's, most of my glitches happen during XCOPY or XCOMP (Roman
Stangl's XCOPYesque COMP). These are command line but I still think the
Elsa driver has something to do with the "glitches" . . .

I was just looking at the dump file directory (\OS2\SYSTEM\RAS\) and was
happily surprised that most old .DMP files are automatically deleted. A
quick look at SYSLOGPM.HLP shows that when the log file "wraps" the
files are deleted. Cool -- otherwise I'd have about a gigabyte tied up
with seven thousand FF*.DMP files. Still, there are some old ones in
the directory; maybe I'll just manually delete them since the log file
wrapped over their entries a long time ago.
