how to fix buffer overrun detected in word 2003
Restart your computer. If you are still having trouble, try updating the
driver for your video card. Failing that, try start menurun or Windows key + R then type winword.exe /r to repair Word. A buffer overrun means the computer allocated a block of memory to read something, but what it tried to read was bigger than the amount of memory created for it. A huge file might do this, but it is more likely that your drivers are out of date or your Word installation has become corrupt.

how to fix buffer overrun detected in word 2003
I have restarted my computer and I have done what was written below to repair
Word. I even ran the Detect and Repair from within Word. How do you update the driver for the video card? Perhaps I should allocate more memory for Word. How do I do that? Is there anything else to try? "hgnlordowen" wrote: Restart your computer. If you are still having trouble, try updating the driver for your video card.
