Memory error

[Martyn]

Hi guys,
I occassiional get the following memory error " Referenced
memory cannot be read". The result of this is the
inability to paste unless the computer is restarted.

That error message means that a program tried to access memory that it had
not allocated. Since there isn't a lot of information in the post about
what is happening when the failure occurs here are some general suggestions:
1) Run Windows Update to make sure you have the latest OS patches.
2) Run Office Update (if you are using Office). There is a link from the
Windows Update page.

If the problem persists, you might try running Ad-Aware which will scan for
and identify a great many adware/spyware apps that may have been installed
on your machine and could be causing the problem.
