I'm currently running Ideas11m2 on a WindowsXpSP2(Japanese OS).....Everytime I exit I get a MEM_BAD_ERROR. Can anyone help me figure out what I can do to prevent this problem.

I have gone into the regional settings file and looked into the languages tab. I have 2 boxes..one is unchecked and the other is checked and di-highlighted(So I cannot uncheck that box)

Thanks

I'm guessing you read the older thread with the exact same title as this one?

You probably need to be logged in as Admin in order to change the Regional Settings, hence why you can't uncheck the one box. BOTH of those boxes should be UNCHECKED. It's a result of a Windows update, from what I was told by UGS.

You might try checking the UNCHECKED box to see if that allows for you to uncheck the diabled box.

Tim,

I tried logging is administrator and uncheck those boxes with no luck. There is one that is still checked and unhighlighted. I was reading more up on this issue and found a solution. I replaced the shw32.dll file in the
SDRC_INSTL dir. No errors about MEM_BAD_ERROR.

I just hope this didn't screw anything else up....
