UNHANDLED EXCEPTION Unhandled Exception: C00000005 At Address: 005418B8 At Address: 00545985 Then the "This program has performed an Illegal Operation comes up. All my other games and programs run fine, I tried a fresh windows install but that did'nt do anything. Please help me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted October 29, 2000 Share Posted October 29, 2000 do you have the latest version of direct x? all your driver updated? also try removing combat mission completely and doing a fresh install of the game. have you defragged your hard drive lately? -john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Posted October 29, 2000 Share Posted October 29, 2000 Well no one else has had this problem so it's probably not the game. It sounds like your system is missing an updated driver for the soundcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted October 30, 2000 Share Posted October 30, 2000 Nickleback, I asked a friend who's more knowledgeable than I and he says: <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>it's an error caused by an out of bounds call. Most likely it's calling a DLL that is missing or corrupted.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted October 30, 2000 Share Posted October 30, 2000 Thats a common error. You need to reinstall DirectX 7.0a You can find that from the following Microsoft page: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=16819 Madmatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickelback Posted October 31, 2000 Author Share Posted October 31, 2000 Yay, damn that dx 7.a it is always the culprit. Thanks guys and damn CM is fun =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted November 1, 2000 Share Posted November 1, 2000 If you start seeing Errors that say: Unhandled Exception: C00000005 Then you are almost ALWAYS talking DirectX issues. I get probably two or three emails a day that reference this same error code and the fix is ALWAYS a reinstall of DX7.0A. Glad it's working for you now.
