Now THIS is an old school problem. Way back, memory resident space was assigned to help with IO operations. This error happens when there's not enough memory to complete an operation with a given piece of hardware. I haven't seen this in ages! It has to do with IRQs. I assume you're dealing with a custom legacy application on your POS equipment, or whatever you're using is taking an older approach to getting things done. Here's some information from Microsoft on why the problem happens and how to fix it. Enjoy!

What is a stack overflow?
In
software, a stack overflow occurs when too much memory is used on the
call stack. The call stack contains a limited amount of memory, often
determined at the start
of the program. The size of the call stack depends on many factors,
including the programming language, machine architecture,
multi-threading, and amount of available memory. When too much memory is
used on the call stack, the stack is said to overflow, typically
resulting in a program crash.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_overflow)
