SUMMARY
This article explains the difference between the following two Microsoft Windows version 3.0 standard/enhanced mode fatal application errors:

Unrecoverable Application Error

-and-

This application has violated system integrity

MORE INFORMATION
These are two entirely different errors. Be sure to specify the exact error when dealing with problems under Windows 3.0.

&quot;Unrecoverable Application Error&quot; means that a Windows application (not an MS-DOS application) has caused a fatal problem in protected mode (usually a general protection violation), causing the application to be terminated.

&quot;This application has violated system integrity&quot; indicates that an MS-DOS application (not a Windows application) has caused a fatal problem while being run under Windows, causing the application to be terminated. This is also usually a general protection violation, but it can be any unpreventable memory overwrite problem.
