MORE INFORMATION

Both the "stop 0x1E" error message and the "stop 0x50" error message have been received when processing a glyph of the letter M in the Bookman Old Style italic font. The "stop 0x1E" error message is commonly received on a Windows NT Server-based or a Windows NT Workstation-based computer. The "stop 0x50" error message is commonly received on a Windows NT Terminal Server-based computer. It occurs in the Win32k.sys file rather than the Vga.dll file because remote sessions do not use the server's video driver.
