An invalid page fault error is an error that occurs in upper memory . It is
when a program tries to access a part of that memory that is already in
use. Upper memory begins at A0000 and goes through FFFFF. The first part of
upper memory stores Video Rom and Ram, A0000 through CFFFF, which is the
first 64k of upper memory, also called the PAGE FRAME. This frame is divided
into 4 pages of 16k each. So when a program tries to access this memory area
you get an invalid page fault. The address in the error that you got
(bffxxxxx) indicates that Rundll32 tried to access the memory address
assigned to video text and color Ram.
