Null DC help. Keeps Crashing
« on: February 27, 2012, 03:22:38 pm »
Hello.  First - apologies to the forum mods/admins.  I made a post about this issue on the main part of the forums, but not here in this software forum. I didn't get any replies before, but I think I'll have better luck here since this seems to be the proper place to post this.

Ok. I'm having issues with NullDC.  It's all set up and some of the games I have work great (all my games are gdi images).  Others, just cause NullDC to crash right away.  I dont think its the games, as I've tried different rips of the same games.  I believe it's the emulator.  I have installed everything they require (C++, directx, etc).  My video card (EVGA geforce 220) is updated to the latest nvidia drivers.  I am on windows 7 64bit. 

When the crash happens, it says it's a BEX event.  I googled this and read about disabling programs in the DEP to prevent this error.  Ok, but windows tells me I cannot disable NullDC in the DEP.  hmmm....

This is driving me crazy.  Is this emulator really that bad?  Or am I missing something?  Any help would be awesome :cheers:
If more info is needed please let me know.  Thank you.

I have never had this error before and I use Null_DC all the time.  Is the emulator up to date? If not go here http://code.google.com/p/nulldc/downloads/detail?name=nullDC_104_r136.7z , it is the official download link.  I know you said you tried different rips of the game, but it might be the games.  I know I had the CD problem and tried multiple rips, but if you go here LINK DELETED BY SAINT. PLEASE READ THE RULES. NO ROMS I have never had a problem with there Gdi images, and they are all self booting as far as I am aware.  Hope this helps.

Zrooney my friend, you solved my problem!!!  Turns out it was my roms!  :banghead:  Unbelievable, as I tried 3 different rips of the same games.  But that site you recommended must be the place for roms because everything works great now!  I'm going to stick with the r135 build as that is the one compatible with hyperlaunch 2.

Wow, this was driving me insane for a few weeks now.  Welp - time to start replacing roms.  Thanks again!  :cheers:

Ok, I thought it might be fishy with the ROMS, sorry about violating the rules Saint. Will not happen again.
