So, whenever my laptop's LCD is closed, or the 'standby' button is pressed, I get a BSOD from Windows 95, and then the screen is reverse-video when I go back into it, but is fine after a restart.
What?
What?
Do you have any anti-virus applications installed (or any other applications for that matter)? I recall that the Trend Micro anti-virus/anti-spam products were especially bad in that way. Power management was pretty primitive in the 486 days (ACPI didn't yet exist)
At least your BSOD isn't in kernel.dll, so there's probably a resident application or driver involved in it somewhere.
Shrug.
I'm not very good at 20 questions. So far we know that it's a non-kernel error and it happens on standby on his 486 laptop, but we don't know the version of Windows 95. There were a number of shaky OEM drivers packaged with the first release of Win95. OSR2 was a bit better.
I'll leave him to your tender care.
The DOS command prompt using VER or right clicking on "My Computer" and going to "Properties" should tell you.This isn't OSR2, I know that. Winver.exe just shows 'windows 95' and the copyright. Nothing more, nothing less.
