...was due to a memory leak in a device driver, according to

    It seems that The Crash occurred while attempting to use a new USB
    scanner with what was thought to be a solid revision of Windows98.
    A post-mortem of that problem is of obvious interest to the
    attendees of the USB Plug-In. In the days following The Crash, the
    gentleman tore into the scanner's USB driver with relish; after
    many hours of toil he came up for air, with only one odd fact to
    report: if the scanner fails to start, the driver releases RAM
    that it doesn't own.
