Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Problems with Win2k Server, 6Gb RAM?
If it is blue screening it is an OS problem. An application should never
allow a blue screen. Oracle isn't a driver or a low level program so it
does not have hooks into ring 0, hence Oracle or Winzip or Acrobat Reader
should NOT be able to cause a blue screen. (printer driver might)
