Access Violation by Starfuy.exe

So it was merely a chance occurrence, as Geforce are /were the most used graphic cards. Even with the latest drivers, it is not working for me. But perhaps it is because my computer itself is too slow.

(700 mhz, not fast nowadays, with Windows XP and common components)

While upgrading to windows 98 is always an option to improve performance

, your system sounds fast enough, and you'll have enough ram.

Sure, "upgrading" to 98 isn't a bad idea, but my connection doesn't work with 98. I should reinstall it though simply for playing a few games when XP is using too many resources.

(I had to remove 98 to free one of my partitions a few weeks ago)

The problem with Star Fury seems to be when loading sounds for me. Is there a way to remove sounds in the game? Perhaps it would help, or perhaps not.

You could try to delete the "sounds" folder...

*Feels incredibly silly*

Erh, yes, you are right. It sounds so easy, but it is working for me without sounds. Now, I will have to try to see what is wrong with my sound card. (Bad drivers probably or something around these lines) If only I could remember what is my sound card.

Thanks Mephisto!

Ups, correction on the Geforce. I just tried the latest beta (which the demo was build on) and now I get the error, too.

GeForce4 (cheap) here with 30.82 running smoothly
