evil errors: I cant get on scratch!
Last week I clicked on scratch but a strange message came up. The message said:
(in the title) Squeak! [D:\Program files\Scratch\scratch.image]: SCratch.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x77e20520" referenced memory at "0x00000045". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program.
I tried to open Scratch again and again, in many different ways, but this message always came up. I even uninstalled and re-downloaded Scratch. Nothing worked. Please help me!
Beep away!

Re: evil errors: I cant get on scratch!
Seems like the scratch.image file is troubled.
Maybe it didn't download the Scratch files correctly. Try re-downloading, with all applications closed. 
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

Re: evil errors: I cant get on scratch!
Hello beepbeep,
It is not a bug in scratch. It is a bug in windows (Windows XP I guess, i know that message).
Have you noticed this message with other programs too? (IE, Mozilla FireFox,...)
Try to find help at support.microsoft.com (Microsoft support center) Type in you message exactly, but without the memory codes ("0x77e20520" and "0x00000045"). I hope you will find some support about this problem there!
When you can't find help on Microsoft Support, you can use Google, and type in your message there.
When you still can't find any solutions, you still can reinstall Windows... (please don't do that: solving a problem = creating another problem 
)

Re: evil errors: I cant get on scratch!
I finally fixed the problem. I got rid of all things related to scratch; restarted the computer; downloaded scratch; installed it; and restarted the computer. Scratch worked. Thank-you to everyone who gave me advice.

Re: evil errors: I cant get on scratch!
Also, because of that strange code,I can tell you what type it is:one of those weird "no
read" errors.
