Update posted ==> crashes

Bernd Brinkmann Dec 7, 2001

Hello Bill,

I just installed the update and had bad luck. After about 10 or 20 sec
while changing some settings in object display the program crashed
repeatably with an exception error:

Zugriffsverletzung (0xc0000005), Adresse: 0x77f7750b

I'm using a german version of WIN NT 4.0 SP5 with a Matrox
Millennium G400 AGP with DualHead option in 16 bit High Color mode
with a resolution of 2560 x 1024 pixel (2 monitors). The PC has an
Athlon processor with 700 Mhz and 256 Mb RAM.

With the previous version of Guide everything worked fine.

That's fine. I could see this before crashing.

Clear skies
