    XP SP3 laptop non-responsive with Express Media Service screen

    My laptop running XP SP3 sometimes goes non-responsive to mouse or keyboard and desktop display changes to just displaying Express Media Player. What is this? I have to power off and re-start to get control back to normal Windows desktop. I'm not very computer savvy so I don' understand what...

    Large Address Aware

    As feedback, I started with Basic mode but curiosity led me to use intermediate and advanced where I then saw that the "successful" result from the basic screen had not changed the LAA column to true. Thus confusion so I no longer use basic. I prefer two modes, drop basic. Still don't get...

    Large Address Aware

    Interesting. All three do run SH4 and I can change the "original" from false to true, but not the LAA to true on the two that won't change. Is there anything to check to see if the change happened? I thought I might just copy the one that I can change into the other two folders and try that...

    Large Address Aware

    I have three SH4.exe files in separate folders. When I add these three, execute LAA, only one of these exe's shows as having changed (true) when I select it for making it large address aware. I've tried all three modes to no avail. Am I doing something wrong? I run on XP 32-bit and I applied...

    Large Address Aware

    Made a custom exe as defined by wineskin to open the LAA exe since it is not a setup.exe type of install. But this does not work, meaning the LAA doesn't open. Or, perhaps it did error and I don't get an error indication. So, I'll await an answer from Paulthetall, the Wineskin expert and see...

    Large Address Aware

    Mac osx 10.7.3 is 64 bit (Lion). Mac osx since 10.4 (June 2011) supports 64 bit address space for apps. I'm getting in over my head here so I'll stop at that. Still leaves this question for Wine and how it manages memory for apps that it wraps. I'm waiting on Paulthetall.

    Large Address Aware

    My MacBook pro is intel CPU and yes it is 64 bit. I tried on Bootcamp and it set SH4 successfully. I ran the game for a while fine. Need to run it longer (hour or more) to see if the crashes don't return. Wineskin first attemp resulted in a "hang" because X11 didn't startup. I made LAA a...

    Thank you, I will try it on bootcamp. Maybe I'll try it with Wineskin wrapper too and see what happens.

    Large Address Aware

    Silent Hunter 4 on a MacBook Pro OSX 10.7.3 I play SH4 on my MacPro using Bootcamp and Wineskins. I'm very new to Mac so my question may be somewhat "dumb". Will this LAA "work" for this game under BootCamp which providea a Win 7 64b environment? Next, will it work with this game running...
