Titolo: Interruzione all'avvio di Windows 98

Qualcuno può dirmi cosa vuol dire questo messaggio che appare qualche volta
all'avvio di Windows 98 - 2° ed. interrompendo il caricamento
                                                               WINDOWS
Thread interrotto a causa di overflow dello stack. Un Vxd, probabilmente
istallato di recente, ha consumato troppo spazio di stack.
Aumentare il valore di 'MinSPs' in SYSTEM.INI o rimuovere gli VxD
recentemente istallati.
Vi sono attualmente 5 SP allocati.

SPs sono le pagine di stack (Stack Pages).
Per default Windows le imposta a 2.
Qualora sia necessario incrementarle bisogna aggiungere al file
System.ini sotto la sezione [386Enh] la riga seguente:
MinSPs=x
Sostituisci ad x il valore 4, e se non basta, incrementalo in multipli
di 4.

Error Message: There Are No Spare Stack Pages
Tale comportamento potrebbe essere dovuto al Norton Antivirus, come
documentato nel seguente articolo della Symantec:
Error: "Terminating thread due to a stack overflow problem..."
Situation:
When using Norton AntiVirus (NAV), you see the error message
"Terminating thread due to a stack overflow problem. A VxD, possibly
recently installed, has consumed too much stack space. Increase the
setting of 'MinSPs' in the SYSTEM.INI or remove recently installed
VxDs."
Solution:
This is usually caused by a Windows setting that is set too low. What
you need to do depends on your version of NAV.
NAV 2001
If you are using NAV 2001, this has been fixed by a program update.
Please close all programs, run LiveUpdate, and select the Norton
AntiVirus program update. You must restart the computer after the update
is installed.
All other versions
To resolve this problem, you must make some modifications to the
Config.sys and System.ini files, as follows:
  1. Click Start, and then click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
  2. Type sysedit and then press Enter. The System Configuration Editor
opens.
  3. Click the C:\Config.sys window.
  4. Add or modify the following entries so that they are set to at
least the following values:
  FILES=150 (set to 200 if on a network)
  BUFFERS=80
  STACKS=12,256
  5. Click the C:\Windows\System.ini window.
  6. Add or modify the following entry in the [386Enh] section so that
it is set to at least the following value:
  MinSPs=4
  NOTE: The MinSPs setting can be set higher if desired, but should be
set in increments of 4. Each SP takes 4 KB of memory. (If there is no
MinSPs statement, then the default value is set to 2.) For additional
information on the MinSPs=4 setting, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base
article There Are No Spare Stack Pages (ID Q149083).
  7. (Windows 95 only). Add or modify the following entry in the
[386Enh] section so that it is set to at least the following value:
  MaxBPS=768
  8. Save the changes, close the System Configuration Editor, and then
restart the computer for the changes to take effect.
