SYMPTOMS
You may receive the following error message when you run a program that
uses RPC (remote procedure calls):
An exception 0E has occurred in Rpcss.exe...
CAUSE
The Windows 95 RPC endpoint mapper service, Rpcss.exe, may not correctly
handle reentrancy (more than one pending request). If the RPC endpoint
mapper is concurrently accessed by two processes, or twice within one
process, an invalid page fault (exception 0E) may occur in Rpcss.exe.
This behavior is somewhat timing-dependent, and may not occur consistently
on all computers.
RESOLUTION
STATUS
This problem no longer occurs in Windows 98. To resolve this problem, install the current version of Windows. For information about the current version of Windows, visit
http://www.microsoft.com/windows.
MORE INFORMATION
Since this behavior is somewhat timing-dependent, debug versions of the
program or Windows 95 may not exhibit this behavior at all.
