Internal Error

“An internal error has occurred….” Does this look familiar? Microsoft Windows encounters numerous errors on a regular basis. When it does so, it will generate a message giving you clues to the problem.

Many times these clues include error codes that you can use to determine exactly what is wrong. For example, internal error code #2343 indicates a known internal error when running Office 2000 setup and removing Lotus Notes. When you receive the error code, you can go to Microsoft’s knowledge base and perform a search for a possible solution. In this case, you’ll find that internal error #2343 can be solved by downloading a Microsoft utility designed to solve this exact problem.

There are literally thousands of internal errors that you could encounter at any time. Many happen during an installation of new software such as the example above and are related to Windows Installer problems. Others can happen when encountering a bug. For instance, running MDX queries with non-empty clauses against virtual cubes is a known bug that generates internal errors in Microsoft’s SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services. Though, this particular error won’t necessarily affect the casual computer user, it does demonstrate the nature of internal errors.

Now that you know internal error messages indicate a problem that Windows encounters when there’s a bug in the software, let’s get to work solving them.

The Microsoft Knowledge Base should be your first stop. Enter your internal error code into the search box and see if a patch or a workaround already exists. If so, follow the instructions and fix the problem.

Because thousands of errors exist, the more you can narrow your search the better. Your internal error may or may not give you an exact error code. For example, you may receive an error that says, “The game encountered an internal error. Please try restarting or reinstalling the game.” No error code however if you search the Knowledge Base using the name of the game that encountered the problem, you’ll get more relevant results. In this example, the Wheel of Fortune game was generating the internal error. By searching the Knowledge Base using the terms “Wheel of Fortune” and “internal error” we would find out that there’s a compatibility issue with Internet Explorer 6 and that a service pack exists to solve the problem.
