White Screen of Death

What causes it?

I installed the latest trial of egress last night, soft-reseted, and my Axim produced the WSOD, and I had to hard reset. Yet others on Aximsite seem to be running it without trouble.

So, why did it happen? I'm running WM2003SE. Surely a mere conflict between today plugins (I was running pocket breeze, ilauncher and aphorisme) can't make the OS throw a wobbly like that?

Morning Ana. Some plugins do make our units have a nervous breakdown but the hard reset usually will bring it back to life without too much trouble. One of my weather programs used to make my screen blink real fast, a soft reset took care of that. After a few times of watching it I dumped the program and things seem to be back to normal. Good luck.

By the way, I used to be stationed in the UK at Milldenhall back in the 70's. Loved it out there. Would like to go back to visit one of these days.
