JIT problems

Ive just installed new version of winUAE and when I run JIT it hangs all the time...when I dont run it, its fine.

I also use Windows XP.

Is there a problem with XP and JIT?

Thanks for anyones time in advance to reply.

Ok....I fixed it in the end.

I made sure that it was running in compatibility mode as Windows 2000

It worked fine after that.

Might be handy tip though incase anyone else who has XP has problems with JIT.

Find your WinUAE.exe file...right click on it for the properties and then select windows 2000 under compatibility.

questions..

- anything interesting in winuae's log?
- does it crash immediately?
- only in workbench or in games too?
- does it crash if you disable all "extra" features like bsdsocket and uaescsi emulation?

(I use XP and I don't have any problems, but I have switched all useless XP eye-candy-"features" off..)

WinUAE(21r4) runs fine with my WinXP PC.

Ditto .. No probs here .. WinUAE is perfect for emulating different amiga's (on XP) .. Just needs to be tweaked somtimes .. I've just been playing 'Bonecruncher' again this morning .. ahh forgot how great(hard) this game was. Runs (as an A500) perfect.

JIT settings are giving me fits too, actually. So far, I haven't found any combination that works.

da log

That's a link to my winuaelog.txt. Too big for forum posting, IMHO.

As for my PC:

AMD Athlon XP 2000+ (normal clocked)
512MB DDR RAM
GeForce 4
Windoes 2000 w/sp2 and all the swiss cheese plugs (aka patches)
AIAB r10c using AIAB_WB config (for the error log above)
--- no config I've tried works if JIT is enabled
latest drives, latest Direct X, yadda yadda yadda

Illegal lput at 00200000

hmm... Try with 4mb or 8mb of chip ram and/or without "regular" fast ram (use only z3-fast).

I am not sure if this fixes anything but at least the last error in log file should change

[LordBug]

That particular config didn't use normal Fast RAM to begin with. It uses 2MB Chip, 16MB Z3, 4MB RTG. I'm also using the Kick 3.1 from Amiga Forever (which uses a rom.key file)

I tried it with 4MB and 8MB chip and the error did change:

Byte put to custom register.
EvalException!

That's the last 2 lines of winuaelog.txt now. The "illegal lput" is gone, and it just throws "EvalException".

The main config I'm using for testing this is set up for 4MB JIT cache, Const Jump, No Flags, and FPU Support. It's also setup to use a 68020+FPU processor and "Fastest Possible, but maintain chipset timing".

I've tried every JIT combination I can think of (changing cache size, changing options) and can't get any config I have to work with JIT enabled.

*edit*

Did some JIT tinkering.

Byte put to custom register.

I get that if I check "Force Settings" and "indirect" or "after Picasso". The other JIT options don't matter. The "Illegal lput" up top still disappears if I use more than 2MB chip.

Hope this helps you some more.

Run winuae with "-log" parameter. ("winuae.exe -log" from command prompt or add "-log" to winuae-shortcut's "target"-field)

Do you see following in log window:

NATMEM: Our special area is 0xxxxxxxxx
shmget of size 65536 for rtarea

(xxxxxxxx = depends on system)

That particular config didn't use normal Fast RAM to begin with

Wrong

<clip>
shmget of size 8388608 for fast
</clip>

#1 - Fast RAM, whoops. I lied on which config I used to get that log. I usually use a modified AIAB_WB (converted to Hardfiles, other stuff). My bad

It doesn't matter if I have Fast RAM or not, JIT still crashes the same way

#2 - the -log option popped up with this:
