Access violation error
Last week I changed my mother & CPU, supposedly upgrading, and after the new installation I am getting two “Access_violation” errors.
The last 6 numbers always vary, so I can’t identify a precise error to go find a correction for.
It happens when Avid Xpress is loading, after it starts loading the Open GL Effects. So maybe it’s related to it.
In spite of that Avid seems to be fine, though I haven’t started editing yet. It plays an editing I have with no issues.
Should I worry? What can I do to solve that error?

Well, it seems I have solved the access_violation problem.
When I started this thread there was one thing I hadn’t yet tried: updating the video driver.
Well, I did download the last version and… no error now!
I am starting another thread dealing with what seem to be common problems in latest systems and Avid.

So, not a problem with Avid then? More a problem with your video card driver – and that is what the error means.

In a way, yes: no apparent problem with Avid now.
It was my distraction not to think that Nvidia driver might have something to do with it. But I did have a suspicion that might be it, because the error window popped up when loading the OpenGL effects.
That’s why I decided to give it a try and it worked.
IMHO I think it might be something related to the new mobo and the new Core2 CPU, because the older Nvidia driver worked fine with Avid on my former PC.

It could be an effect of changing the motherboard. PCI/PCIe channels vary reatly between motherboards and some applications are very specific about which slot to use due to the way the bus is segmented.
