TITLE:  Invalid Page Fault, Corel WordPerfect 7
 
 
ISSUE 
 
   When attempting to run Corel WordPerfect 7 on an Advantage! Atlas 
   system, after reinstalling from the blue OEM Corel WordPerfect 7 
   Suite CD, the application window will begin to appear, followed 
   closely by an illegal operation statement:
   
       "WPWIN7 caused an invalid page fault in module 
        PFMK70.PFC @ 0137:37ec36ec."
   
   No reinstallation or combined removal and reinstallation from the 
   CD, will resolve this error.
   
   This issue affects all Adventure! systems.    

 
BACKGROUND 
 
   See the ACTION section below.    

 
ACTION 
 
   There are two fixes to this issue:
   
   1. Run a Hard Disk Restore with the current Hard Disk 
      Restore floppy/CD kit for the system, according to the 
      Advantage! matrix.
   
   2. Obtain the updated Corel WordPerfect Suite 7 CD 
      (retail version) from Corel by calling 1-800-77COREL 
      (1-800-772-6735) and requesting it.    

 
NOTES 
 
   The OEM installation CD contains an older version of the Corel 
   WordPerfect 7 executable (WPWIN7.EXE) than is found on the 
   current restore CD. Corel has a knowledge base article 
   referencing this error and relating it to this older software 
   build. See Corel Knowledge Base document ID# 9320.HDI Corel 
   Build: 7.0.2.19. Corel OEM CD Build: 7.0.0.2327.
