Hey guys i dunno whats up with my guildwars

I dunno but in any time It just closes and says Out Of Memory Array.cpp(88)

Any tips? on how to stop it!!?

Skids · Aug 10, 2006, 02:58 PM // 14:58

Well how much memory do you have installed?

The thing is that it isnt GW thats out of memory. Its just telling you that there isnt enough to run it. Do ctrl+alt+del, click the task manager tab and go look at processes tab.

See that list of numbers down the right? Thats hogging your memory. Some are required, probably many arent. The more you can close down the better.

Take a look here:

http://www.answersthatwork.com/Taskl...s/tasklist.htm

and close down any that are not required. Pick the high value ones first.

BEWARE: if you close down a system required operation then it could FUBAR windows - at least until you reboot, so watch out.

Now you need to be aware of why all these processes are loading - its because you probably have them all loading at start up. Again any you dont need to load on start up just to play games (like MS Office, etc) tell them not to which will save you having to do all this again every time you want to play GW.

Nuff said. The dood has left.....

Sounds like you need more ram, also close useless programs you dont need while playing GW to free up some resources.

Tarun · Aug 10, 2006, 04:21 PM // 16:21

Post your system specs and also tell us how many processes you have running in your Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Delete). Be sure to click "Show processes from all users"

I dont think i need more ram i for 2gb of RAM

RTSFirebat · Aug 10, 2006, 04:48 PM // 16:48

Well clearly the amount of RAM you have isn't the problem.

But you said you have 91 processes running? What applications and processes do you having that requires 91?

Things to check:

- Spyware check!

Maybe you have spyware on your machine that is eating up all the RAM?

- Do you have any strange or duplicate processes?

Again see spyware above.... Ad-Aware is a great and free program to do checks.

- Are you running any major applications like Graphics processors? Virus Scanner get to dynamic scanning? BitTorrent or other downloaders?

These could also be eating up RAM.

gabrial heart · Aug 10, 2006, 04:49 PM // 16:49

91 processes? That's a bit much 20-35 is pretty average. Can you post a screenie of your processes tab including the programs you would normally be running during the time you get that error?

No its not. It's far to small to read.

Can you just first click the "User name" tab to list your own processes first.

Then just use print screen and paste the image into Paint and save it as a jpeg.

Then update it to imageshack because the allow full screen screenshots:

imageshack.us

That will allow us to see it

Well just deleted all my pics and recieved

Holy.... well for a start bikini.exe... that is a spyware and/or virus!

Here is some info one it:

Quote:

bikini.exe - Here is the scoop on Mapson.c Worm as it pertains to computer network security. The big question: what is bikini.exe and is it spyware, a trojan and if so, how do I get rid of Mapson.c Worm?

bikini.exe (Mapson.c Worm) - Details

If your pc has a process called bikini.exe running, your pc may have been infected with a strain of the mapson.c worm.
bikini.exe is considered to be a security risk, not only because antivirus programs flag Mapson.c Worm as a virus, but also because a number of users have complained about its performance.
Mapson.c Worm is likely a virus and as such, presents a serious vulnerability which should be fixed immediately! Delaying the removal of bikini.exe may cause serious harm to your system and will likely cause a number of problems, such as slow performance, loss of data or leaking private information to websites.

RTSFirebat · Aug 10, 2006, 05:37 PM // 17:37

More info

tfswctrl.exe is not required to run all the time, you can close this, and make sure it's set not to auto run when Windows starts.

fts.exe is also not required to run all the time.

7ba3ef62.exe... I can't find any information on it... all I know is it not normal. Could be spyware, virus or worse... close it and make sure it doesn't autorun!

gw.exe... you are aware you have Guildwars running already? And yet you say it doesn't work? Have you tired terminating this process then running GuildWars again?

My best advise is download AVG virus scanner and check for viruses, then get Ad-aware and check for spyware...!

If you want to find more info on any processes... type type them into google and most the time it will find something on it

gabrial heart · Aug 10, 2006, 05:57 PM // 17:57

He's also running AOL... meep, is that how you connect to the net? Doesn't aol still have a dialer option for both dsl and dial-up that doesn't require you to run the AOL app? hrmm your running fts, so yeah why are you running aol too?

the 7ba3ef62.exe is that nasty hard to get rid of virus/malware that keeps comming back and renaming the exe.

Dude you have some nasty stuff running around in your system, and thats only 3/4 of your running processes, at the very least get yourself a copy of windows defender!

And throw in Spybot Search and Destroy just to finish it off ^_^

Relambrien · Aug 10, 2006, 06:03 PM // 18:03

I got the same message the OP is talking about before I upgraded to a graphics card that met the min reqs for GW.

Do all that virus/spyware stuff of course, but what type of vid card do you have?

That's your problem right there.

Your best bet is to head to my website Lunarsoft.net and get my Anti-Malware Professional package.

It contains the best freeware for getting rid of malware completely.

Once you've downloaded that, visit the PC Maintenance page which covers every application in the package selected. It gives step by step instructions on how to clean and optimize your pc.

You should also pick up Avast and scan your system with it to get rid of viruses. Best of all this excellent AV scanner is free too! You can even register it for a year of usage free!

Should you have any problems, please don't hesitate to contact me or post asking questions.

After you've run all the scans and completed the PC Maintenace guide for cleaning your pc, you can post your HijackThis log here or PM it to me.

Unless you're very computer minded you might as well be ready to reinstall the computer from scratch.

The random numbered file is a virus that is extremely difficult to get rid of.

I had it once and it took me hours to get it away, NO single malware/antivirus program can get rid of it - it requires manal deletion and registry editing in safe mode.
