I've been regularly getting this error lately and I don't know why. This bit of text is printed with the error message everytime:

JOEQUAKE-GL caused an invalid page fault in
module JOEQUAKE-GL.EXE at 0187:0045b6d2.

After this error my mouse sensitivity is reset and the brightness isn't readjusted when JoeQuake closes (JoeQuake is brighter than Windows) until I restart or turn off the computer. Can this be fixed?

This started happening a couple of weeks ago and there's been no major changes to my computer for the past few months (no new programs installed, and no new equipment or hardware).

Invalid page faults suddenly starting to happen, you say?

Unfortunately this may be caused by faulty hardware, such as a bad stick of RAM. You could possibly check your memory using a program such as memtest86.

Until you figure out what's causing the problem, there is a fix for the brightness problem. http://www.celephais.net/fitzquake/files/setgamma12.zip is a simple program (you only need the exe file from the zip). Just run this program without parameters to reset gamma after Quake has crashed. Unfortunately, this tool is quite necessary to have easily available Smiley

Which JoeQuake version is it and when does it happen?

I'm using the latest version, 0.15dev. I found that this happens whenever I try to record or play a marathon.

After a number of re-records or restarts I get the error (I bind B to "map start" instead of "restart", because Quake shuts down with another unknown error after multiple restarts). It doesn't happen when I record a demo on a single map or from save games.

Thanks for that progam, Mandel Smiley

I'll check my hardware soon and see if that's the cause.
