Hi All, Consider this post a desperate plea for help. I'll outline as clear as possible, and ask (beg) that someone can help me figure this out before I go insane. TIA Problem: When I render frames in LW 3.1 my system occasionally crashes. I get GURU # 81000005 and then task number such as: 011D4D30 01068BE0 0176FAF8 0113CD68 0173A428 011C1450 0104CD78 011C7BC8 011C7978 011373D0 A program I have defines the Guru # to mean "AN_MEM Corrupt. Corrupt Memory List Detected In FreeMEM()" The bizarre part is I can't tell you exactly when this happens?? Sometimes I will render about 20 frames then the crash, other times 2 frames then the crash. I have tried to re-render a frame it crashed on to see if it was something specific to the frame, but it will work if I render it again. I can not find a pattern, or find the exact operation that makes it crash. My Setup: Amiga 2000HD GVP 030/25Mhz with 9 megs of 32bit ram and SCSI controller A2091 board which has 2 megs of 16bit ram Toaster 1.0 card with 3.1 Software Syquest 88meg exterbal 350 meg internal scsi drive 50 meg internal scsi drive I am recording directly to Sanyo 950 (I am not saving frames to any drive) Kickstart 2.1 rom Workbenck 2.1 What I have tried: I have run every memory check program I can find, and they all report no errors. I have disabled the 2 megs of 16bit ram on a tip that might cause the problem. I have moved the memory chips around on my GVP board to see if the TASK number changes, it doesn't. Called Newtek support. Run a memory block program to disable the memory areas reported by the task numbers. AND NOTHING STOPS THOSE VISITS FROM THE GURU!!! Well, if you have made it this far I thank you for at least letting me vent. If you have any ideas or guesses please let me know. Thanks much, Dan "I can't take these GURU visits" Nessel nesseld@ios.com
