Error on mew upgrade

[marcbarker]

Just got this error.

[Gil R.]

Do you know what happened just before that? And do you have any save files?

[marcbarker]

no save battlles, was going into battle then did that error. Cav, Inf, no artillery I was CSA, 1st Sgt mode. Polks Army vs forces in Giardeaux

That looks like a resource allocation (memory? window handle?) problem.  You might try doing a fresh reboot before playing and shutting down any other applications.

[marcbarker]

seems sporadic on the exception error. Actuallay when I play it is the only program running..

[Gil R.]

Have you defragged recently? I remember a few people who had badly fragmented drives and low memory having issues.

[marcbarker]

sure did havea 500 gig hard drive, i also do a scan every other day

[ericbabe]

Have you tried playing in low animation mode?  (There should be instructions in the ReadMe file on how to turn this on.)  How much memory does your system have?

[marcbarker]

4 gb ram 1 gb video sli so memory should not be a problem. Could it be a conventional memory hog game?

Sometimes it helps to test memory to check for a defect stick:

Let it run for 30 minutes, better 1 hour.

Like I said in a previous post, I think it was just a fluke. I may have tilted my head wrong. Thanks for all the advice by the way
