Application Error

WOWEXEC caused a General Protection Fault in module MMSYSTEM.DLL at 000A:0032

Choose close. WOWEXEC will close.



What should I do? I've tried everything I can THINK of. Oh yeah, almost forgot: I'm running on a Windows XP Operating SYSTEM on a Compaq Presario (home). The 2 afore mentioned games (as well as several others that don't work) are compatible up to and including Windows 95.Have you ran Xp's compatibility wizard?
I know that there are Microsoft released patches that allow compatibility with XP for older games. Have you ran Windows Update ever?Do you have Service Pack 2 installed? Also, here is the defination for MMSYSTEM.DLL... http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/MMSYSTEM/index.php

[glb]Flame[/glb]If compatibility and win update,patches etc. doesn't work then your game isn't compatible with win XP. And I hate when it happens like that!
