Hello Brain, I am in the Process of writing a program in VB 3.0. When running the program everything works as designed except for one menu item. When selected, this activates VBPLAY.VBX, the utility from Autodesk which runs animation files. Which then gives me a application error < VB HAS CAUSED A PAGE FAULT IN MODULE MACH.DRV AT 0006.4605 >. The animation window is at full screen when the error occurs, if I reduce the size of the window the program has no problems. My problem is that the animation has to be shown on full screen at 640×480. I have tried to research this problem and have referenced the MS Windows Resource Kit on page faults. My conculsion is a memory problem but have had a difficult time making the right configuration. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you much… Paul J. NPD Corp.

We have seen problems with Full screen just using the .DLL, even outside a development environment. First make sure you are using the latest version of the .DLL (download WINPLA.EXE if you are unsure). Second, add a line in the [aaplay animation] section of your WIN.INI file which reads: Int2fSwitch=yes These two steps usually take care of full screen problems. -Brian
