![]() However, after it crashes and after I disconnect, it often causes my other applications to crash with the same error message! Weird! Or is this normal? After several hours, MiniCAD7 would crash and the Finder would crash - or it would crash upon shut-down. I still don't understand how mail headers can cause a crash. It will take some time to test over at least a month of receiving mail with different headers. I'm still not sure, but I am guessing that it's one of the "mailing list" items that's causing the crash. And it had mail filtering - which I'm beginning to think is the culprit for the "unmapped memory exception," "Type 2" and "bus error, invalid memory reference" errors. OE was set to receive all mail upon startup. My dialer, PPPop 1.6.1, first connects, then triggers IE, ICQ and OE. for now.Īs far as OE and some other apps crashing, it does not matter whether I'm connected or not. It seems minor, but I'm beginning to think the startup freeze is a different issue from the OE crashes with "unmapped memory exception." With FWB Tools scanning at startup, the freeze is gone. But so far, really only these crashes - I've learned to disable SCSI probe and startup with FWB Tools. I've heard that I would need FWB 2.5 instead of 2.0 to work in OS8.1. Yes, it's a non-Apple hard drive - Quantum Viking 4.5Gb 50-pin plug-n-play (after initializing with FWB). I would definitely welcome any other ideas! And once with Netscape Communicator 4.05.Īny further ideas? I'd like to reopen this question to other experts. These other apps are MiniCAD7 and the Finder. The most peculiar thing, however, is that after I log off and run my non-dialup apps, my non-dialup apps also sometime crash with the same "unmapped memory exception" error message. It seems to be a mail filtering bug with my OE settings. The OE crashing is still occurring - it's crashing after email retrieval and prior to mail filtering. ![]() I previously could not initialize my new hard disk with Apple DriveSetup 1.3.1 (I had to use FWB), so I'm not ready to try that yet. I've deleted Pyro! and installed Berkeley's AfterDark, which is also having problems running. This seems to be a conflict between Pyro! screen saver and FWB 2.0. The startup freeze is almost solved - it may have nothing to do with the "memory exception" crash. With extensions off, the crash becomes "Type 2" instead of "Unmapped Memory Exception" - probably due to lacking Norton's Crashguard extension. It tried to fix all it can fix, but it ran very much like NDD 3.5.1 on my **not HFS+** drives. ![]() Netscape Communicator 4.05 actually had a crash with same error message. ![]() It runs fine so far with Photoshop, MS Word, Timbuktu Pro. ![]() I followed the GURU guidelines for interleaving, and the motherboard had clear markings for 1A, 2A, 3A, etc., 1B, 2B, 3B, etc. Is there some equivalent Finder cache to delete?Ĭould this point back to a hardware problem - specifically, RAM? There isn't any equivalent MiniCAD cache file to delete. This morning I felt clever enough again to launch OE, but it crashed again after getting some mail with a new error message, "Bus error, invalid memory reference." What does this mean? I have to extract my email with MS Word!Īfter restarting and after file-sharing settled in, MiniCAD also had a crash with the same error message, "Bus error, invalid memory reference." Bummer!īTW, I have downloaded Eradicator 1.0.1 and ran it - it seemed to look specifically for the virus that corrupts the Desktop Print Spooler - it found nothing.įor OE, I've found that if I first delete the OE-Users Cache files, it will launch without crashing. Optimized last week after installing Virtual PC. About a month ago it took me a long time to migrate all my stuff to a new hardrive, and I thought I had a very clean and efficient setup. Okay, I may just have to re-install the System afterall. ![]()
