[IMG]http://img32.**************/img32/1448/msvcrt.png[/IMG] Not sure if this is a reaper bug but ive had this crash 4 times now, cant repro it though. Sometimes i was working in another app, reaper wasnt even playing and just crashed. This one happened when i opened a new project. Anyone know what msvcrt.dll is for? Can i just get a new one?

Maybe this helps I guess you need to click the technical info link to get technical info useful to solve the technical problem...

usually means you're running out of RAM. how much RAM on your machine, any heavy plugins running? (msvcrt is the microsoft visual c runtime and it's pretty stable, i wouldn't suggest trying to replace it)

The reason why I discovered this was that I had massive crashes with msvcrt.dll (on Vista) in the 3.06pres all of a sudden and I was apparently the only one. I made pretty much the same observations like you (crashing while doing something outside Reaper and on project load) and this happened before 3.06 as well, but much less severe. Unchecking this option fixed it. Even if you have "Ignore ASIO reset...." unticked, maybe turning that on changes something on your system as well? What interface are you using?

Thanks for the replies guys. Ive got 1gig of ram, but never come close to maxing it out. Im using a M-Audio Delta 44, ill have a play with that option and see what happens. Might take a while though as i only get a crash every few days. Im gonna try this... ...and see what happens.

OK, thanks, ill try that too but the project that crashed had only 2 tracks with no plugins so im pretty sure the ram was fine.

Well, the dll was fine. MD5 says its the same as the one on the windows install disc. The asio option was unticked here, as its always been. Ill leave it ticked for a while to see what happens.

I confirm this issue: got it in my reacrash jpegs!! Same dll, same offset (I didn't it post as I thought it was some "Win stuff"). Win XP sp3. In the jpg name, I've noted that it occured when loading a project while another was playing. Billoon, bad news for us!!! - M-Audio Delta here too (delta 66 but usually some good, Good, GOOD & stable stuff) - Tick box unticked too The question is: why is it occurring in 3.xx ? I never seen that it in v2.xx versions. [EDIT] this CANNOT be a ram issue, here, at least. Billoon, I'll have a look at M-Audio. What is your driver version ? I'll post mine later.

... unknown issue @ M-Audio. I think I've got the same driver (as the last update was in Jun 08, I'll edit this post later if it's not the same). Billoon, dunno! For the moment, what we can just say is that this issue appeared in reaper 3.xx with with the same ASIO drivers than we were using in 2.xx. Some dev feedback/ideas about that would be appreciated...

Personally, i dont think its a driver issue. Ive been using this driver for months and the crashes only started a couple of weeks ago(approx.) Also, im not getting any other programs crashing ATM at all, even ones that use the same asio driver. So i think this may actually be a reaper issue.
