bug_arnett Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Hi all, every since I installed "service pack 2" I have been getting "reference memory could not be read" errors in some games & programs. Does anyone have this problem too & if so how can I fix it. Amd 1700+ athlon xp, geforce 5200 w\128 ddr 2 ram, 768 ddr ram, soundblaster live 5.1, elitegroup pro motherboard, and of course Xp home w\sp2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAndle Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Do you run Automatic update or manual update for Windows? If you do automatic updates you will never get updated drivers. You can try going to http://windowsupdate.com and Download any driver updates that are available. Other than that try updating DirectX or you have some faulty hardware and might want to run diags if you can. Most likely it's a hardware problem though.

Takeshi Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 There were some problems with some programs when SP2 first came out. Most programs vendors have since released updated versions or fixes to run comfortably with SP2 so it's well worth checking their websites.
