So, I've got a new computer now - Core 2 Duo

I open up FL, and i get this error message about my CPU and a string of jibberish! "Ok then...". Reopen fl studio, and I get a different error, this time some "error protection: 552132" or something.

I don't get anymore errors now (I havent changed anything at all). What the hell was that all about? Something to do with the crap dual core support or what?

Just reinstalled it to see if it would do it again. It did.

Followed by 3 other errors or so, eventually terminating the program. Then I reopen it and it works completely fine. lol?

Also, this is not cracked, just incase any of you wise asses were gonna jump on me

Seems to not crash when I have an ASIO driver selected.

Have you reported this at the FL tech forum?

Nein, this is just the demo copy (i'm not registered)

I see.

There are people in this world that can tell you what a core dump means. They have spent endless hours memorizing hex values, along with their meanings in context and their alphanumeric equivalents. I am constantly awed that people like this exist.

Unfortunately, I don't think any of them frequent this board. As such, asking us about a problem and dropping a core dump on us won't get you very far.

As far as the error itself, I've never encountered it. I think, demo or no, you should ask the FL tech folks about it, and if they can't help, then find some grungy, nerdy tech talk forum where the above people I've mentioned congregate and talk in hex. If you can communicate effectively with them (not an easy task), they might be able to at least tell you what happened.

Quite likely, though, the guys at FL tech will know what's happening.

We're not grungy and nerdy! lol

Well I believe I can help you out. The program is having errors with the instruction pointer (points to where the program should jump next and start new operations). It then crashes because it doesn't know where to go to next because the instruction pointer is pointing to some random place in memory "0x7c812a5b." This has happened to a few people before and I believe it is contributed to having an error with your memory. The best program to test your memory is memtest86. Run it on the highest setting overnight and see if you get any errors in the morning. If you have generic ram, then it is probably your memory's fault. Good luck!


Edit: Do you have an ATI video card?

Nah man, it's simpler than it seems... it's just location markers, and the equivalent data that caused the crash... useless to everyone really except a programmer.

I have a core2 duo with FL7 installed and it works beautifully on XP SP2. So let's do some trouble shooting...

1. Do you have any VST/VSTis installed when FL crashes, or is it the FL core engine itself that is crashing?
2. Updated to XP service pack 2, or are you running Vista?
3. What other stuff you got running? Try closing all your other apps to make sure there's not a conflict
4. What graphics card?

With the info we have so far, my guess is that it's probably a device driver error with your soundcard... but you might have Vista, in which case I have no idea. I get similar errors sometimes, usually at the most frustrating times when I haven't saved in a while.

peace

yeah seems to be my soundcard driver (only get that error on direct sound). Windows XP sp2 w/ audiophile 24/96.

RAM is fine, I ran a 24 hour burn in when i built it, its corsair too.

Problem solvered kiddos! Thanks,

On a side note echo.. just how much has the new cpu improved performance? I have an old 3ghz chip and some of my projects are maxed.. any advice would be great
