lockup during -=> *.FLC
7 messages in this thread
Sounds like a hardware problem to me. Perhaps one of the hardware experts here
on the forum would have some specific ideas for ya.

Hopefully so, Gary! It's wierd – sometimes I can go hundreds of *.FLC-based
frames without a single lockup, and then it'll kick my tail every hour on the
half-hour (jocular mode on) for the next five hours… Rendering to *.TGA or
*.JPG has absolutely no problems – could that maybe point in the code for the
Vibrant driver , or is that outside their realm?
Could be heat related, or it could just be a failure of your memory manager re
Phar Lap at some point. (I'm sure it has nothing to do with the Vibrant
drivers, though.)

hmmm… I'm using QEMM 7.04 for VM services… Oh, well – seems to have
calmed itself down to "once-in-a-while"
right now
Mike, I read of your plight with lock ups. Did you say that if you use the
Graphite board it never locks up? You might try disabling the video shadow ram
in the "advanced bios setup" of setup. What bios do have?

it's an AMI BIOS, but not sure 'xactly which one. The board I have is a VLB
486/66 w/32MB RAM onboard.
Usually problems like yours are caused by memory conflicts. Did you try my
suggestions? If that didn't help you might outline all hardware in your system,
as well as the contents of your autexec.bat and config.sys files.
Good luck,
Mark
