SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Word 97 for Windows, when you use the print to fax feature, you may receive the following error message:

Word caused a General Protection Fault in Module UNIDRV.DLL. If you choose Close, your Word session will terminate and you will lose any unsaved changes to your document. If you choose Ignore:, you may be able to continue and the Fax software may work despite the error.

The following fax drivers are reported to exhibit this behavior:

Brother MFC-4550
U.S. Robotics RapidComm version 1.2
U.S. Robotics Voice Print


RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, contact the fax driver manufacturer and obtain the latest version of the fax driver.

For the RapidComm version 1.2 driver, upgrade to version 1.3 or later.
