New versions of WinUAE crash WinXP
I've been away for a while, and I just discovered that all versions above 0.8.22R1 crash for me upon running them.
AppName: winuae.exe AppVer: 0.8.22.2 ModName: ntdll.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.0 Offset: 00017f26 I have: WinXP Pro (no service pack) Athlon XP 1500 512Mb RAM VisionTek Xtasy GeForce4 MX440-64MB SB Audigy DirectX 9.0 0.8.22R1 works fine and none of the more recent ones do. |

It runs great on my WinXP, it could be related to DirectX9.0. Try uninstalling it with DX9 Uninstaller - http://www.3dcenter.de/downloads/dir...installer.php. It's not needed anyways for any game or app right now and causes more troubles than benefits.

I have had DX9 since rc0 and I never had any problems with it..

Delete configurations/default.uae and run with default configuration. Does it still crash? |

Is the newest winUAE optimized for DX9? In that case I guess I should go ahead and install DX9 see if that resolves the occational 1 minute hang before emulation start issue I'm having.

Ok then, no emergency upgrades needed.

Well, I figured out exactly what it was that was crashing me. Apparently there is a newly imposed limit on how long a config file description can be. I don't know what the limit is(I bet it's 128), but all I know for sure is that a 140 character description in a .UAE caused the program to crash.
