Guest Mark G. Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 I multiple applications, I get various "unreferenced memory" issues that cause the programs to shut down. There isn't anything consistent about it either. These programs range from programs such as MS FrontPage 2003 to Photoshop CS3 to Dreamweaver CS2. Other programs as well, but those are the most note worthy. Not all of these programs and there processes are memory hogs either so I am not sure the issue. This can happen whether or not I have multiple programs open and the computer has been running for a while or even if I only have the one program open and the computer just booted up. I am running 1 gig of ram on an AMD 2800+ with a GeForce 5900 video card on XP Pro as an OS. I ran memtest and another program to test the RAM, but they report no errors whatsoever. At this time, I would rather not have to reinstall my OS either. I will however be upgrading in the next couple of months, but if I can, I would like to try and figure this out now and correct it if possible. These errors have been plaguing me for about 4 months now. One other thing, and it may be related, is that upon startup, a program I use to keep my PC safe called Spybot announces a error with a missing or corrupt framedyn.dll. I tried fixing this problem to no avail. Not sure if it is involved in the grand scheme of this issue, but maybe worth while in mentioning? So with all of this said, short of reinstalling my OS and having everything reset, what can I look for and/or what can I do? Any and all help is much appreciated!
Guest Gerry Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 Re: unreferenced memory errors?? Mark If you feel the need to post to more than one newsgroup please crosspost rather than multipost so that all replies wherever from get shown in each newsgroup you have post to. All you do after the name of the first newsgroup is add a comma separator and then the name of the second newsgroup. I posted a a reply to your question in Hardware before I found your second post. -- Hope this helps.
