AIM Problems - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Czas na Zywiec · 08-01-2003, 03:41 PM

Okay, this is really getting me POed. I have no idea what's going on, but whenever I log onto AIM, a few minutes later, it shuts down and I get a message that says:

Quote:

The program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

Okay, that's not my main problem. Whenever I get a message like that, I just click 'Close' or X the box out and everythings fine and dandy. I just restart AIM and it's like nothing happened. But whenever I do that NOW, it just comes back half a second later, and it just keeps coming back. I swear I Xed it out at least 3000 times, yet, no cigar. It's like a never ending pop-up window. So I checked to see what it said in 'Details':

Stack dump:

The ONLY way I can get it out is to restart my computer. I did that like 30 times today. Once I do, I log onto AIM, an the same process happens all over again. What's wrong?! Justin? Anyone..? [SCREAMS]

I get Kernel errors all the time too...I have no idea how to fix it though

Maybe you could try unistalling and then reinstalling AIM..

Use Trillian.

Yeah do that. That crap always happens to me.

Solution:

Get rid of Windows 98 (or whatever version you're on) and upgrade to XP Professional. IMMEDIATELY. You won't get that error anymore, I hope. What version of AIM are you using?

I agree TJ, Trillian is awesome! Although, I don't use it anymore b/c I don't bother with msn or yahoo. It's still a good program though I recommend it to anyone.

Hmm..I have XP and I've gotten this error before. "The program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. If the problem persists, contact the program vendor." I just closed the program, let it sit for a few and turned it back on and it worked fine. I've never got the KERNEL32.DLL error before though.

Weird, I'm on XP too (but on a comp w/ 98 on it at the moment) and I've never gotten an illegal operation error w/ AIM since I got XP in November 2001...*shrug*

Hm.. I dunno Chris. I havent gotten that in AGES. But when I did, Id just delete the whole thing and re-install it.

OMG...I get those errors that won't disappear a lot. Damn computer has been almost thrown out the window several times. Windows ME stinks.
