Application Error - Memory Issue

Zero 0din · July 21st, 2004

The instruction at "0x01bf442c" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

This dang message appears whenver I attempt to load an ISO image from my HD. I assume it has something to do with the mysterious shutdown of my system

while I was sleeping

, but I was wondering if anyone knew how to solve it. The emulator was working GREAT and all isos were being read fine, before I feel asleep. Thank you in advanced.

Sounds like a corrupted image file. Try scanning your filesystem for errors (scandisk on 9x, chkdsk on 2k/xp )

Actually what I did is change my colors setting from True Colors (24 bit) to True Colors (32 bit). I later found out that the game would work in full screen mode, but I kept getting the error in the window mode. So I changed my colors, and now the game works in both window mode and full screen mode. I'm using Win2k, just incase someone else has this problem.

Ah. Let me guess... you own a 3dfx voodoo 3, don't you

.

That a known limitation of 3dfx cards. They can't do 3d in any more than 24 bit color. But they support 32 bit color in 2d. So if you are running any 3d app in a window with the destop set to 32 bit color the card will crash horribly. The best way to fix that is get a new gfx card.

I am actually using a Matrox Millennium G550, though it may have similar 3D programming in it. I'm uncertain, but I wasn't familar with the card when I was given it. I use to use a Nividia Gforce2 card which seemed to work great for the ePSXe.
