I'm having the same issue with WinFF. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I too am unable to get winff to run. When I run it from the command prompt here is the message I receive:


Runtime error 203 at $00000000004A7C96
$00000000004A7C96

It looks like something is broken...

Here is the situation: I installed Mint 8 on an old desktop to act as a print and file server (file repository) for the rest of the computers on my home network. I attached an external drive (format is NTFS) to the Mint desktop and made a shared folder using Nautilus (Samba). I also have a laptop th...

I cannot make my external USB hard drive boot with Mint 8 KDE64. Until recently I had Mandriva 64 on the USB drive and had no problems booting from it when it was plugged into my laptop (running Windows 7 Ultimate). I decided to switch back to Mint so I downloaded the KDE63 ISO, burned a boot CD, an...

I also upgraded to 7.04 and my Mint wilted. I recovered by replacing the xorg.conf file (in /etc/X11) with a backup. I then power-cycled my computer and everything seems to be running. I did receive another large batch of updates after my "fix". I have not tried Envy as my display looks to...

I recently posted a few calls for help about Mint crashing or locking up my HP desktop machine. Not many suggestions or ideas were offered and I gave up on Mint as perhaps not being a stable O.S. I then installed PCLinuxOS and there was an option at boot to run a memory test. So for grins I ran the ...

A bit more research on this site says that this issue is also confirmed for 2.6.17. My guess is that it wouldn't be a big deal if this issue didn't make the log files grow so large.

There appears to be a bug in the Linux:

I suspect there is a solution:

How does one apply this fix?

It looks like others are having this problem too. I just don't know what to do about it.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks.

I tried to do a little stress test by downloading something from the net and watching a video at the same time. Everything seemed to be working fine and then the system locked up.
