Winamp Crashing And Never Opening Again
 

ok i have this really weird problem .. before i explain it .. i am running Windows 2000 Pro as an OS ..

Here it goes .. : whenever i open winamp .. it goes fine .. but say i close it .. or it crashes somehow .. and i try to open it again .. it just keeps crashing .. sometimes after a certain time period of 30 mins or so .. it could open again .. but now it just never opens agains until i reboot .. i am thinking it might be a plugin .. but i dont know .. i just want my winamp back .. hehe .. thanx in advance anyone who can help me ..

-XeoN-

full system specs ? any third-party plugins installed ?

Windows 2000 Pro with all the updates

700mhz amdk7

512 ram

S3 Savage Piece Of Junk! ( AGP )

Sound Blaster Compatible Card ( i ferget the name but thats whut shows up as the hardware )

any other info just ask me ..

any plugin that i have isnt 3rd party because i downloaded it off of winamps plugin pages if thats whut you mean ..

-XeoN-

just because they are downloaded form winamp.com doesn't mean they are made by nullosft, they are thrid party plug-ins

delete them, they are usualy the problem

go to winamp/plugins, delete gen_nomad.dll

there is no gen_nomad.dll in my plugins directory ...

delet all other third party plug-ins

heck COMPLEAATLY un-install and re-install Winamp

w00t! .. i found the problem .. it was a general plugin .. infact .. it was the titlebar plugin .. damn .. i liked that one the most .. =X .. infact ... i just read the readme thing .. and i quote ..

" When you exit Winamp, sometimes the plugin remains loaded: this is most noticeable when you try to start Winamp again and it immediately bombs with an access violation. "

the moral of the story : read the damn readmes =X

thanx for the help guys
