Crash when returning to game from options

21 October 2011, 19:13

WinUAE crashes sometimes when redrawing the screen after something else (like the options menu) is on top of it. How to fix?

Running Vista

Does it create a crash dump file? (winuae_?????.dmp in same directory as winuae.exe. ???? = date)

If the file is huge, run winuae with as minimal configuration as possible, duplicate the crash and attach the dump file.

No, just "WinUAE.exe has stopped responding"

I wouldn't call stopped responding state a crash.. Does it just wait or use lots of CPU time? Does it resume if you wait few minutes?

If not, open Windows Task Manager, right click on winuae.exe, select "Create Dump File". Compress and attach/email/use some other method to transfer it, thanks.

It appears that I haven't had this particular problem since then, I think it might have been caused by the fact I had Azureus Vuze running in the background.
