Title: SFC3 Unhandled Exception Error
Post by: Caldien on February 29, 2004, 06:52:03 pm
I've tried using the non beta version with dx9 patch,  and the beta version and have the same result.  when entering combat or a mission, I'm booted to the desktop with this message.  This happens in Dynaverse or Single Player

"Sfc3.exe caused an Exception_Access_Violation in module d3d8.dll at 001B:02B482FD.

I'm running Windows XP pro and have a new ATI Radeon 9800.  I'v updated my drivers with ATI also.

Can anyone help?

 :lol:    I want to thank you for helping with this after I had tried everything.  Had a good laugh when I realized how easy a fix this was.  Thought it was more serious.  Did not even have to change to 16 bit  Thanks again!  

By the way, I have an almost identical system to the the other inquiree.
