Hey guys, just need a little help here. I'm trying to use the function See what accesses this address on a certain address, but as soon as the application launches, it causes my entire computer to crash. Any advice/Debugging not possible?

[Dark Byte]

what windows version?
And what game? Does it use protection?

You can try going to settings->extra and then enabling kernelmode debugging and then try to find what accesses.
And if that also crashes you could try booting with dbvm (if your system is one of the few that support it) and then try again.

Thanks for the help :

I'm using Windows Xp, and yes, the game does have protection.

I've enabled kernelmode debugging, and now it says it can't ini. debugger S:

And no, my system can't support dbvm.

When using kernelmode debugging you must not attach the debugger.
To open a process you click on OK , not attach to process

Then when you want to find out the code that accesses an address use "find out what accesses" and make sure that it does not ask to attach the debugger (E.g don't use find out what reads)

try a different engine, some are bugged.

What about Opening game in olly then ataching CE? I get error 87 , obviously because olly is already debugging it, because CE alone works the way it should, is there anyway you can get around this? The error pops up when you enable debuger (find out what writes/acceses)

[Dark Byte]

If you enable kernelmode openprocess, and have run the systemcallretriever once, ce will give you the option to kick off olly and debug in it's place.

Also, when using kernelmode debugging, you will not get error 87, because it will not attach the windows debugger.
