Finally

"Run time error '7":

"out of memory"


an no itz not mah computer, its a new computer


run time files?

Run time error 7, out of memory does NOT mean your computer is out of memory, that's sadly a really bad error message thats a hangover from Win 3.1 and people with 4Mb of RAM.

Please download the latest version, its still called 0.B.0, but I've actually changed it slightly, because I forgot to put one file in the installer. With any luck that's the problem, you'll install this update and become a satisfied BetterMSN user from now on. If it doesn't fix it then let me know (ideally by email neil _ _ mitchell@hotmail.com - two underscores), and I'll track down your problem.

I'll give it a try

okay i might like the program but a question i've got 2 msn's is there a way i can change from one to an other when i start up better msn it support's 4.7 but i want it on 5 because that's mine most used msn the other one is for T&T addons like plus hehehe
so you might want to add that option if it's possible

Nice neil, you made teh installer

Great Job!

There is a bug that I discovered in it, lol, I think neil is still trying to figure it out.

still dont work say ou tof memmory error im usin win xp and msn 4.7

Installer - completely written from scratch, I hope you like it, it took a while...

Simple me - good suggestion, unfortunately I'm not clever enough to do this, but I know someone who is, and hopefully they should have a fix for me for the next version.

Danes error - figured it out pretty much, can replicate it on my machine, but its only "medium" severity, so will be fixed in 0.B.1.

3ni's error - this is a unique report, i.e. no one else has replicated it, are you running any MSN Addons that modify the .exe (polygammy or such), do you have MSN 5 installed at all, are there any windows on screen from BetterMSN when this jumps at you? If none of this helps, I'll build a debug version for you, which guarantees to pinpoint the exact error - I just need to work on some build scripts for a while.

I don't have to tell u ur program rocks (for starters, u said it urself), and I like it alot. One question however, is the BetterName feature already available or will it be added later (I mean as a function in BetterMSN)?

Not currently integrated, but it will be soonish. It was waiting for the installer, so now thats done it should be in there quite quickly.

Damn advertising


* Muss starts download of betterMSN because peopel say it rocks, I am suspicious though


And ginge isn't clever enough to do somethign related to programming

I think the link tot he download is crappy??

It started to download it, said it had finished after 11000 bytes, and nothign happens (probably corupt file, cos of the size) and says it preforms illegal operation

* Muss will try downloading again now, and will copy out error message if I get it again


11,146

Error message = d:\Better~1.EXE

The NTVDM.CPU has encountered and illegal instruction.
CS.04e8 IP:0119 OP:65 63 74 20 61

Terminate and Ignore buttons

Clicking terminate terminates it, obviously, ignoring it brings up the message again, and ignoring that oen closes the installer

Are you using a download manager by any chance, or doing Save Target As?
Because of the mirror system, it isn't a link to the program, its a link to a page where you select your mirror. Just try it by using IE and not clicking Save As Target.

What happended is you downloaded the HTML as an EXE and tried running it, no wonder it didn't work.

I would like a direct link, but sadly thats not possible with the mirror system.

Problem temp. solved. Use my mirror (Muss, it is a link ).

k i uninstalled windows messenger and installed it back, because i had the pollygram patch  on it, then i tryed to run your program again but that same thing happened, i see the main window in it but then the "out of memory" message comes up.. i doh kno what it is ..help!

I need really need to give you a DBG enabled version, I'll work on this tonight, and hopefully post it tomorrow or later on tonight.

No idea off hand why this isn't working, but DBG should pinpoint it exactly.

k thanx ill wait for it, hopefully it should be able to help

I got the memory error too...

Ginge,

* Contact list difference, see who hates you:

oooh yeah. But when I delete somebody from my list. Than there comes nobody in that list. So IT doesn't work.

It should come in the other list, the people who 'hate you' are the people that do not have you as one of there contacts (they have deleted you)

You have to restart BetterMSN to refresh the list of who hates you, who you hate - will be fixed soon ish. Delete someone from your contact list and they will be added to the who you hate list.

Can everyone who is getting run time errors please download this program:
www.hotmailstuff.com/BetterMSN-debug.zip

Unzip this file, overwriting your existing copy of BetterMSN.exe, when BetterMSN crashes it will give a complete stack trace, which is incredibly helpful when trying to find the cause of errors.

This is a replacement of BetterMSN.exe, not the whole better MSN program, you must already hvae tath installed before you include this. This is only for people who are causing runtime crashes with BetterMSN as is.

Sorry for the typing, I', drunk....
