when i am connected to the interned i continually get boxes coming up saying a error has occured in a particular program eg.iternet explorer,realplay etc.when i enter the details it always says "kernel 32 DLL caused a page fault" what does this mean,it happens every 10 minutes or so,to get rid of the box i press x
sometimes the computer restarts,

To give you a definitive answer we'd really need the exact error message, write it down and post it.

The most common cause of invalid page faults is faulty memory. Other things can cause it, something trying to access memory already allocated to another program, for instance.

Bud Allen (http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Troy/6883/errors2.html) has a very good page concerning error messages of this type.

And take a look at my site posted below, you'll find a link to the MS Knowledge Database with a list of different error messages and some links to specific questions.
