ntdll.dll problem?
 
1 Attachment(s)
My problem is winamp constantly crashes. Most notably the program crashes when I attempt to play a new song. Skip through the current one. Skip back to the previous. I often get some script error: Guru Meditation. The error number and affected file vary each time. From reading through the forums it sounds like its a problem with modern skins. I don't know how to isolate this and check for it, but I should be able to use modern skins with this program. The other thing I notice is in Vista's error logs winamp most often crashes with ntdll.dll as the culprit. If anyone has any suggestions please help. Thanks!

I'm running the most recent version of winamp (5.54) in Windows Vista 32 SP1. Dual core 2.00GHz processors, 2GB RAM. Attached plugin and hijack logs.

Phew! I researched the forums and discovered a solution to my problem found here:

The problem seemed to be a problem with main.idx and main.dat. The above thread references XP, for vista users the two files will be in the following location:

C:\Users\%USER%\AppData\Roaming\Winamp\Plugins\ml

Simple delete the two files main.dat and main.idx. Yes, it does delete your library, but all you have to do is perform background rescan watch folders and the library will repopulate (playlists remain intact throughout whole procedure). Hope this helps anyone else with this problem.
