My wife is using Microsoft Word for Windows 1.0 (WFW) and is experiencing
occasional "Unrecoverable Application Error" errors.  This has only
occurred when she is doing something innocuous like Page Up or Page
Down.  I also noticed this happens when WFW first opens a document
and I press Page Up/Down when the hourglass cursor is active.
 
I have yet to see this behaviour in any Windows program
although I have heard several complaints about this on the net.
 
My configuration is "vanilla" in the sense that I used the standard
install procedure and have no other funny TSR's running.

My machine is a 386SX with 4mb and a BOCA Research Super VGA card
with 1mb of display memory.  I also have a 4mb permanent swap file
for window's usage.

Has anyone else experienced this and if so is there a workaround?
