There are certain files which will make Notepad give this error. I think it depends on the file's size.
Having said that, in this case I don't think that is the problem, as mixteus says the error appears even when Notepad is started by itself. I tend to agree, it sounds like a corrupt Notepad.exe file. Maybe worth scanning for a virus just in case.
