I want to use CE to just find the memory values for siren being on or off in need for speed rivals so I can use c# in VB to read it and do things with it. It is different because it is a boolean (on/off) so I tried scanning a single byte for 0 for off and then between 1-255 for on but my computer freezes during the 2nd scan. Suggestions?

Use changed value instead?

I'd start the scan with the sirens on and use unknown initial value.
Then search zero when you turn them off.
And compare value to first scan (unchanged) when you turn them back on.

What has the scan type to do with your computer freezing ?. If your computer freezes on second second that means you have a slow pc or a terrible hdd/low space where CE resides that it can't make the comparison.

I doubt doing an unknown value scan is going to stop your PC from freezing, if it does thats very weird

Don't start a scan with 0, you'll end up with tons and tons of useless values taking up RAM and HDD space that CE has to parse.
