That's actually an error from RiscOSLib, which means a signal was raised and not handled. The signal in turn means that the C run-time system caught a hardware error, i.e. an address exception, abort on data fetch, or similar. (I forget which one error 5 is.) Once you've tried the previously-suggested fonts problem, you could try killing the SCSIfiler module, as this might be broadcasting odd messages. The fonts are far more likely to be the problem, though. --Clive.
