Vista BSoD
« on: September 30, 2010, 10:08:17 pm »
Same problem seen here: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,10784.0.html

as well as all the sites he referenced.

Compiled with C::B 10.05 rev 6283 w/ mingw included (unsure how to find version info for that).

If run on any Vista machine that didn't compile it in the same session, BSoD.

Runs fine on windows 7 or on Vista after recompiling (though the same exe will cause BSoD after a restart).

Why do you start a new thread if there is an old one that is related?

And how could an application cause a BSOD, it is not possible if the OS is stable, or Vista is the new 98?

p.s. gcc --version will give you the version of mingw
p.p.s. there are some advanced debug facilities added to Vista, so you can debug your problem (I'm not a vista/7 user, so I can't help you more)...

The other thread is over a year old and didn't apply to this version of C::B so I felt it merited a new thread.

MinGW version is 3.81.

What version is GCC?

If I see correctly, it's not relate to C::B, but to SDL on Vista/Win7.
Probably caused by a buggy graphics driver or a graphics-driver hacked to work on Vista/Win7, but broken by an update.

Whatsoever if it is not related to C::B (and it seems so), it's violating our forum rules.
This is neither a general programming forum, nor a forum dedicated to graphics programming or to find workarounds for buggy drivers and/or OSes.

This forum/website is dedicated to problems related to use C::B or to develop C::B !
