Access violation/stack error on Vista SP1 32 bit/laptop | Forums

Hi, I've innstalled EoA without any errormessages. When I try to start the game I get the message:
Exception type: Access violation
Call stack (14 levels):
0x75CF4911
0x0066B9D9
0x0044A9A8

I've tried to follow the steps posted earlier, but with no luck. Does anybody know how to fix this? Eva

Welcome to the Forums!

To which "steps posted earlier" are you referring?

[evacz]

Hi again. I refer to an earlier soultion where the game were innstalled om XP and copied from C:\Documents and s.......\application data\Myst.. onto folder(on Vista SP1) C:\Users\username\appdata\local\Myst.. but with no luck. Same errormessage. I've reinnstalled to Vista SP2 with a hope that SP2 would fix this, but, again same errormessage. Do you have any good tip on how this might work? Eva

Good luck with your drawings on the slates.

Those Barho can be very hard to please at times.

If they scratch their head, it means they do not like or do not understand a drawing.
