Investigating Guru message

selco · 17 March 2016, 09:09

Hi,
in a debugging session I get always a GURU. It says
Software failure. Press left mouse button to continue.
Error: 8000 0003
Task: 401ADB5C

I thought I can now just press Shift F12 to go into the debugger and then Tt to show the tasks.
There is however no task starting with 401...

Are the addresses show with Tt different from the GURU Task number? What ist the relation?

regards

It looks like if your task is gone when you press shift-F12.
If you get a guru in the flashing red box, then it's probably too late to debug anything.

The task number - actually the task address - should be the same.
However if you have a really bad crash then this value may be wrong or even complete garbage.

It is either ready task or it is nowhere.

Anyway, I don't think it will help with debugging, setting breakpoint to address error vector is probably the easiest way to see where it comes from.
