Advice on Error Type 2 / Type 3?

[JohnathanSmith]

Hello again,

could someone please let me know what error type 2 / type 3 stands for?
I've been using a music software lately and I constantly get this messages after being kicked out... :confused:

Is it a memory problem?

regards

J.

D=02 Address Error
The Motorola 68000 microprocessor can access memory in increments of one byte (8 bits), one word (16 bits), or one long word (32 bits). The microprocessor can access a byte of information at an odd or even memory address. But it must access a word or long word at an even memory address. So, when the microprocessor attempts to read or write a word or long word at an odd address, you see this error. Since that's a 50/50 proposition when running random code, this one shows up quite often.

ID=03 Illegal Instruction
The computer has a specific vocabulary of machine language instructions it can understand. If a computer tries to execute an instruction that isn't in its vocabulary, you see this error code. It's less likely than error 02, but still very common.
