What does Vmm32.vxd (Windows 98) do and what if it crashes during emulation (debug mode) of program

Hi,

My very last points, sorry I can't give more.
But the question is simple (I hope)

I was emulating a program (so running it in debug mode (Borland cpp Builder 5), testing the self created app)

Suddenly Vmm32.vxd crashed (blue screen ...).

I couldn't immediately reproduce but was wondering what Vmm32.vxd does ??
Could it be my craches this vxd or is it most likely because of an instability of the debug mode ?

Any ideas ?

VMM32.VXD is Virtual Memory Manager which is about the very core of Windows.

hmmm ...
Well ... I think I have an idea why I had the problems.
I'm tracing a bug now.  Might be that I overwrite some memory or do something else which is not correct.
