  The Case of the Random IE and WMP Crashes
Time: 00:30 EST/05:30 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Mark Russinovich: When I experienced a crash in Internet Explorer (IE) on my home 64-bit gaming system one day, I chalked it up to random third-party plug-in memory corruption. I moved on, but a few days later had another crash in IE. Then, Windows Media Player (WMP) started crashing every third or fourth time I used it

Crashes in different programs seemed to point at a more fundamental problem. I had over-clocked the CPU, so I speculated that the rash of crashes were a side-effect of CPU overheating and reluctantly dialed back the clock multiplier to the factory specification. To my dismay, however, the crashes continued. My next theory was that I had bad RAM, but the Windows Vista Memory Diagnostic failed to identify any problems.
