-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you attempt to apply a filter in the Media Gallery in Microsoft Encarta 97
Encyclopedia for Windows or Microsoft Encarta 98 Enyclopedia for Windows, you
may receive one of the following error messages:

- Enc97 caused a stack fault in module Kernel32.dll.

- Enc98 caused a stack fault in module Kernel32.dll.

If you are running Microsoft Windows 3.1 or Microsoft Windows for Workgroups
3.11, the computer may stop responding (hang).

CAUSE
=====

This behavior can occur if the Encarta CD-ROM is not in the CD-ROM drive when
you attempt to apply the filter in the Media Gallery.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this issue, insert the Encarta CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, and then
restart Encarta.

To prevent this behavior from occurring, do not remove the Encarta CD-ROM from
the CD-ROM drive while you are using Encarta, unless Encarta prompts you to
insert the other Encarta CD-ROM.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Encarta 98 prompts you to insert the CD-ROM when you remove the Encarta CD-ROM
from the CD-ROM drive while you are using the program. If you click Cancel and
then attempt to apply a filter, you receive one of the error messages listed in
the "Symptoms" section earlier in this article.
