Title: DirectX 8.1
Post by: MrKil on November 27, 2001, 09:33:00 PM

I upgraded to DirectX 8.1 and now when I quit game I get an error message saying that Aces High caused an invalid Page Fault in module GDI32.dll. To get the game to work again right I have to reboot.

Their are also times when I Crash to Desktop and get the same error message. Reboot only cure.

I try to use any other directX app, they do not work right untill I reboot after I get error. If I use the same app before Aces High I do not get the problem so that tells me Aces high is the only app that causes the problem.

Is any one else having this problem ?. What is the fix ?

My System specs.

AMD Athlon 1.4Ghz
512 Meg PC133 Mem
ASUS A7V133 Mother Board
ASUS V7100 Vid Card with 32 meg
Via KT133A chipset

Mr. Kill,

I have seen two computers with error messages appearing when AH is shut down, and only a reboot will solve the problem. Both use Athlon chips.

On the first, I discovered the problem popped up when I changed the video driver. I uninstalled Aces High, reinstalled it, and the problem went away. An uninstall and reinstall is worth a try if you have changed DirectX or a video driver.

On the second machine, I tried all of these fixes, and it still hasn't fixed the problem. That machine has some type of Athlon MB and chip, but I cannot be specific.

Thanks fopr the reply PapaFox. The only change I made was the DirectX upgrade. The video drivers ad everything else is the same.

I was considering uninstalling and reinstalling Aces High like you suggested. I will do that and let you know what happens <S>

Nope reinstalling AH and DirectX did not work. The new patch did not fix problem either.

Just Manual Start it <S>
