Forums Bug Reports Illegal Operation

For some reason when I open up mIRC sometimes it works fine sometimes as you as I connected to a channel I get:

MIRC caused an invalid page fault in

I have no idea what that is, but it is starting to make me angry.

You may want to provide a little more information. For instance...

Do you use any scripts?
Do you use any DLLs?
What operating system?
What server(s) do you connect to?
What channel(s) are you joining?
Do you use a non-English Windows?

etc...

Also, install mIRC to another directory without changing any of the default options and see if it still happens. If it doesn't, I would try to narrow it down to specific mIRC options or any scripts you may have loaded.

I get the same message, too.

I use sysreset 2.53 with mIRC 6.1 and have windows 98. I do not have anyother add ons.

Please help

Thanks

you got disconnected with "peer" error, if you dont get back into the channel, i saw you were still running that filesharing script. try a clean copy of mIRC in its own directory WITHOUT that script and see if the same error happens. Course, i have no idea if that script messed with the registry or not.

Also, in case you didnt see it: does this happen only when you are sending or getting a file?

Yes this only happens when I am sending files.
Any ideas. Mirc 6.03 worsk fine with the script I am using. (Sysreset.com) but only happnens in 6.1 and only when sending files.
thanks

Try a clean copy of mIRC in another directory (without that script) and see if you still have the problem. If you dont, then i would talk to whoever wrote the script as it may not be dealing with changes made in v6.1

...you dont, then i would talk to whoever wrote the script as it may not be dealing with changes made in v6.1

I disagree with that. Its one thing to deal with script errors with the update, but it should never cause a program crash like that no matter what is wrong with the script.

If the script is entirely scripted then fair enough, but many scripts use DLLs, and there is nothing mIRC can do about DLLs that crash it.
