Will not run!

by Charles "monkeyboy" Gibson · in Torque Game Engine · 05/25/2002 (7:26 pm) · 5 replies

I have recently downloaded the HEAD Torque Engine SDK. I can successfully compile the source, but when I run it, it crashes. Here is the error message that is returned:

The exception Privileged instruction.
(0xc0000096)occurred in the application at location 0x1000fec2.

Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program


Has anyone else run across this error. If so, could you please provide me with your assistance. I appreciate any help that is thrown my way.

Thanks Again.

Have you ran torque before?

If not check to see if you have the correct hardware/drivers for it.

yeah, make sure you can say run the RealmWars demo. latest DX, drivers, etc.

then, if you can BUILD the code, try running under the debugger and tell us where it really crashes...

I am still unable to run the engine. I have DirectX 8.1, OpenAL, and the last drivers for my video card. I am still getting the same error message.

When you say 'run the engine' did you mean "I tried RealmWars, and it doesn't run either"?

Also, note I suggested since you are obviously accessing CVS that you simply run once under the debugger and tell us where it is physically crashing (i.e., the call stack).

It turns out that when I uninstalled an old Voodoo2 graphics card from my system, it didn't delete the Glide2X.dll and Glide2X.OCV drivers. So when I would load the torque engine it was for some reason trying to load these drivers but my primary card didn't use them. So I relocated these drivers and now everything seems to be functioning properly.

I would like to say thank you to everyone who help me knock this problem out. Especially you David
