Application keeps crashing after an amount of time

Hello,

Since an certain amount of time we get crashes with our application on some of our PC's. It's an touchscreen application and it's running on a builtin PC with an Intel G41 Express Chipset. The application only crashes if it runs fullscreen.

I've tried various things to get a solution but everytime the application keep's crashing. The things i've tried so far:

  • Reinstall a clean Windows 7 (x86), No chipset drivers (just the drivers Windows recognized) with Adobe AIR 3.6 and the application, after that i've tried Adobe AIR 3.4 and 3.5. Application keeps crashing on the Adobe AIR.dll that's in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\
  • Reinstall a clean Windows 7 (x86), the latest chipset drivers with Adobe AIR 3.6 and the application, after that i've tried Adobe AIR 3.4 and 3.5. No other software. Application keeps crashing.
  • Reinstall a clean Windows 7 (x64) with Adobe AIR 3.6 and the application, after that i've tried Adobe AIR 3.4 and 3.5. Application keeps crashing.

I'm guessing the chipset is messing up Adobe AIR, because if we run it on another PC the application runs fine. Even if I run the application in Windows XP mode, the application runs fine. But I guess that's just because "Windows XP mode" simulates other hardware.

In the Windows Event Log I can find the following entry:

Naam van toepassing met fout: SenF.exe, versie: 0.0.0.0, tijdstempel: 0x4eb75ae0

Can someone point the the right direction? If necessary I can upload the whole DMP file.

If you need more information feel free to ask. I'm not the developer of this program so I might get in contact with the company that build this application to get your questions answered.

Many thanks in advance.

Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com?  When adding the bug, please include sample code or an application so we can quickly test this out internally.  If you'd like to keep this private, feel free to email the attachment to me directly (ccampbel@adobe.com).  Adding the dmp would also be great.

Once added, please post back with the URL so that others affected can add their comments and votes.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

It seems the problem has been resolved yesterday. I waited to reply with the solution until we're done testing. Since testing is done, i'll tell you our solution. I think the problem was very computer specific, but since others can have this problem i'll tell how we fixed this.

We are using 32" touchscreen from ELO (http://www.elotouch.com/products/ids/3200L/default.asp) with an builtin PC with the following specs.

ECM1:

Intel Celeron Dual-Core

2.2GHz E1500

(512KB L2 cache/800MHz bus)

Appearantly we were using the drivers that are delivered with Windows 7 and we did 'downgrade' the drivers with the drivers that can be downloaded from the ELO website (http://www.elotouch.com/files/driver_packs/IDS_Computer_Module_Win7_Drivers_Package.zip). I guess the below drivers are the one that solved our problem.

************************************************************

*  Product: Intel(R) Chipset Device Software

*  Release: Production Version

*  Version: 9.2.0.1021

*  Target Products: Intel(R) 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family

*                        2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) processor family

*  Date: December 23 2010

************************************************************

Unfortunately the latest drivers are'nt always the best... at least not for us.

Thanks Chris for your help, i still can upload the DMP file to see where it was going wrong. I'll email them ASAP.

I hope that I can help some people with this post.
