*FIRST* Sorry to cross-post this, but I am unable to post into the Beta
Newsgroup where I found it. I have been having this same problem for quite some time. It used to happen almost constantly.. then I reformatted my hard drive, re-installed Windows 98, installed the lastest (last) driver set for my video card, and then only upgraded to DirectX 7.0 as I think that 8.0a did not work with my video card which is now defunct. Since doing the above, I now crash only a few times.. and I too can avoid completely crashing sometimes.. by using Task Manager and ending aworld.exe... BUT NOT ALWAYS (Most of the time it's a complete FREEZE) AW Browser 3.2 Build 397 Gateway Celeron 333 192mb RAM VooDoo3 3000 PCI (16MB) (Using Last Driver Version Released) Windows 98 (Not sure if it's 2nd Edition) 3.45gb left on AW's hard drive DirectX 7.0 MSN 56k Internet Access *wonder if this might be the problem... as they haven't been really reliable in other areas* Ensoniq Built-in Sound Card (SoundBlaster PCI64) Internet Explorer 5.0 (With updates for it) [View Quote] |
