8007000e Error in Vista

Morticus · May 16, 2007

Hi guys just a bit of info i found not sure if it will help but this has cured my Mem 8000 error on vista and also on my friends PC too. Put the following line in the ARMA shortcut and this seems to work.

\arma.exe" -mod=beta -nosplash -maxmem=512 if you just

using normal version 1.05 then just add this

\arma.exe" -maxmem=512

It works for me

Out of curiosity, which 1.07 are you using?

1.07.5154 or

1.07.5157 ?

here is a screen of my catalog:

i have no ARMA dump or etc. files

p.s.

dear BIS - is it possible that Polish developer LEM done something in engine ?

they were not answering when i wrote them few e-mails

in the begining i couldn't start ARMA, because "autenticastion of DVD disk failed" even 11 times

my record is starting game after 14 retries :/

since patch 1.05 i could launch game after one restart

before i had to try even 8-14 times

my friends here usiing non PL version say to me - what CTD ?

edit

107 beta patch plus (5157) is not crushing today but:

You need to check not the ArmA folder in My Documents, but the one in Local Settings. You may need to enable showing hidden system files in your Windows Explorer first.

Suma, maybe this experience might help you:

In 1.07.5157, If I limit the memory to 512MB, either in Vista64 or in XP32, I do not get this error even when playing prolonged times on different Islands and Missions, even with a lot of different Custom Content.

On Vista64:

Even though I limit the memory to 512MB, it still consumes more memory (reported by windows Task Manager). 700-850mb (~double of XP32) is normal under Vista. But I see the memory being flushed a couple of times, Sudden decreases to e.g. 500-600mb and slowly adding up again.

The funny thing is, even though the Memory Consumption in Task Manager is this high, I still don't get the error as opposed to when im not using the maxmem=512 parameter

Btw, in extreme cases the error can cause a bluescreen (Vista64-only): Process has locked Pages

I will fiddle a bit more around with the -maxmem parameter, 512 was what made it work under Vista64, but the problems seemed to be around 750mb for XP32

Update: 768mb for XP32 is still fine

System Data:

Core2 E6600, running 2x 3.33ghz, 2x 1GB DDR2-800 4-4-4-12-1t, Nvidia Nforce 650i+590 Hybrid Chipset (Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus) GF8800GTX 768mb

XP32: Nvidia Forceware 160.03 Vista64: Nvidia Forceware 158.43

ArmA Settings: Very High, AA Normal, VD 3500m. 1600x1200@100hz

Vilas, to go to your local settings folder, click Start, Run, and enter this:

%USERPROFILE%\local settings\application data\arma

Sickboy, is Arma playable under Vista now? I had to go back to XP32 before because of LOD issues etc. However I now have 4GB of pc6400, but XP32 only sees 3 gig. I want to go back to Vista 64 to see all of the memory, but will only do so if Arma runs ok
