I\'ve had the same problem; and why\'d you link the before you post thread?

Because you are supposed to read before posting? \"00514795\" is a new addition to the forums, but regardless of that there are things you should do when reporting something, particularly #3 and #5 from that thread.

ok, from what I know of programming, system specs mean nothing with this. Now, have there been any sujested fixes? and if so what were they?

PS if it\'s any help, I also get this error occasionaly when I: enter a room from outside, zone, and tep forrward (after first loading)

:P The more detail you can post about it, the better, of course.

ok, it\'s an Acees violation error, so w can assume it\'s failed to find something, or acessed the wrong thing, or a package from the server has been skipped or failed to send/recieve. 00514795 probably denotes the missing/corupted script/package/whatever. this help any?

EDIT: next time this happens to someone, click yes in the \"sav diagnostic\" or whatever, then open it in notepad and copy and paste it here. Be VERY helpfull to the devs i should think.

6)  Something unexpected happened:
So, you got an \"access violation\" at some big number, good for you.  Collect them all and maybe you\'ll win a prize.  :)  Search the forum for that number, and see if you can find something.  (usually just sound; read #5)  [SIZE=10]However, more often than not, the number is useless.[/SIZE]  Ask us for help, and we\'ll try to find out what\'s doing it.

They\'re sometimes good for telling if one crash is the same as another.  That\'s about it.  The dumps are mildly useful, to one of the few of us that has the need Microsoft crap to actually open on.  (not me)  There are only 3 things you can post that could be of any use:

Give me 2 and I\'ll get 3, which is really what I need.  (Though, for all I know, it\'s fixed for the next release.  There\'s not enough info to tell what it is, really.)

ok, got a log. can e-mail it if people like. it\'s a .dmp file.

The .dmp files are dumps; the logs are in psclient.txt.  Hardly anyone has the needed Microsoft junk to open those windows dumps (only win client makes them); you could post your log here, if you want.  There\'s a chance it could help.
