Lets see where to begin... I have been having problems with exception errors left and right now that i have downloaded the 1.06 patch for halo. in the begining it was almost completely randomn, sometimes i would get them when i first started halo, sometimes id get them in the middle of gameplay, now inm getting them when ever i shut down halo with either the alt+f4 combo or the normal way of shutting down halo. i have a Celeron 2.4 w/256 megs of PC800 RD-RAM and a 64Mb g card and a dsl conection, which sucks becuase wish i had cable again :( , anyway at first i thought it was my Ram having like a masive memory leak, but i did some test with other aplications, ran a large CAD file, opened 200 bmp in Paint shop pro, ran photo shop and aldus page maker whil;e doing a defrag and... well i pushed my memory and perfomance to the limit and none of those programs caused my machine to have anyproblems. so i thought it might be my GFX-Card and so i grabed my spare and reinstalled the drivers, up dated the drivers, changed settings. and finnaly found after switching my frame rate to v-sync solved most of my in game crashing problems. now my game is crashing when ever i close it down. my questions are these,
Where is the exception data stored
What information is contained within the exception data
What is the exception data coded in; ie: hex/binary/ASCII.
The reason I am wondering this is becuase i am an IT profesional if i can get the information i would be able to locate the problems, because they exist on all my client computers as well, 200 machines cant all be messed up. anyway once i locate the problem i will be able to fix it and beable to post the fix.
