jimz0rz 0 Posted June 16, 2002 It means that not enough memory could be allocated to OFP - so it crashed. Two soloutions; 1) Increase your swap file size and/or 2) Buy more RAM (double it if you can) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you will send us Flashpoint.rpt and context.bin files (check Troubleshooting FAQ forum how to do this), we might be able to tell you more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two soloutions; 1) Increase your swap file size and/or 2) Buy more RAM (double it if you can)<span id='postcolor'> Actually, strictly speaking, that is not what it means. An Access Violation exception is generated, for instance, when a program tries to write to a page of memory that is not marked as writeable, or when it tries to execute data. Most often, this is caused by bugs in the code (stray or dangling pointers), or by missing error checking. As you noted, if a memory allocation fails because of a lack of memory, the allocation function could return a NULL pointer or invalid handle, and trying to access memory through that pointer or handle would generate an Access Violation.
