Cause

There are several problems that could cause this error.  Memory Corruption (either hardware or software)  usually is at the root of the problem

Workaround / Fix

To Perform a Diagnostic System Clear:

  1. With Console running, press [SETUP].
  2. Press [6] for System Settings.
  3. Press [Enter].
  4. Press [16].
  5. Press [Enter].
