For the past month, each time I boot up my laptop I get the message: "The
instruction at '0x00b11306' referenced memory at '0x00650680'. The memory
could not be 'read'."

I click OK, and all is fine. But it is annoying. Does anyone have an idea
what I did to create the problem. I assume the computer did not decide to do
it by itself.

Something that is running at startup is failing. Only you can figure out
what that is. Do clean-boot troubleshooting:
