Windows 98 – Häufig tritt der Bluescreen OE beim Beenden von Word auf

You will receive a blue screen with the error code OE: 0187: BFF8E64B (or similar)? When it occurs is random and not linked to any particular action in Word 2000. You have to start up and shut down the system several times for Windows to shut down properly.

We have the following solution ready for you to get your Windows working again:

Troubleshooting: Blue Screen OE

1. Norton AntiVirus is the first source of error that you must rule out, as the message occurs much more frequently when it is used. Uninstall the current Norton AntiVirus via the System control under Software. If this option fails, you can use this tool die beliebte Virensoftware erledigen – die erste Möglichkeit ist aber die effizientere, da hier mehr Registrierungs- und Systemdateieinträge entfernt werden.

2. If this has not helped or the error still occurs, albeit less frequently, you can easily and quickly get rid of the blue screen in 20 seconds: Click on Start/Suchen/Nach Dateien oder Ordnern… and type in the search term normal.dot in. You can now name all results e.g. in OldNormal1.dot or OldNormal2.dot um.

After restarting Word, the blue screen should no longer appear. In some cases, the Word 2000 Normal.dot template file is defective, which is why renaming it can help.
