I'm not 100% sure, but that's what used to be a general protection fault. normally when the code you are running tries to access an area of memory that it's not allowed to, such as system memory - usually happening through bad pointer arthmetic - it's not anything to worry about as such, though it could point to a corrupt piece of software somewhere....

So it's software, not hardware - unless someone else disagrees?
