If you *are* running QEMM, Exception 13 is occurring because some process
is trying to write to an area that QEMM believes belongs to someone else.
QEMM puts the processor in protected mode, which means that programs
which try to write outside their own space get caught.  The usual offenders
are games, which often hack areas in the BIOS for their own nasty reasons.
