Error in OpenBVE

[AyooDess]

Seriously...I Dont know where to put this. So Here it is : Lately I've been trying to play OpenBVE and for some coincidental reason after my Graphics Card Broke, it just kept giving me "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt." Please Help,and if I put this in the wrong topic,please do not hesitate and just tell me where to put it next time. Thank you for your support.

Can you take a screen shot of the error messages you are getting.

It's pretty hard to break your graphics card playing OpenBVE, I can see it more you trying to run Crysis 2 on max settings with a dated card.

Did you replace the card, if not obviously there's your problem.

your video card is broken lol

No, I don't think that is a graphics card issue. IIRC, its some sort of .NET Framework issue. I suggest you update to .NET 4.0 and see if this solves the issue

Also, how exactly did your graphics card malfunction? Did nothing display on the screen, or was there artifacts being shown, such as something like this

Well the problem is, OpenBVE Didn't affect the graphics card,it was the other way around. My ATi Radeon HD 4550 broke like a month ago,and so I Tried solutions like Resetting CMOS battery. Now I use my integrated graphics(Intel G41) and can't play some games,like GTA 4 and even Trainz 2006. When I didn't have my HD 4550,I used G41 and it would work for GTA 4 and Trainz 2006. So what I'm saying is, Did the HD 4550 affect the programs,or it was the CMOS Reset?

Well, you aren't exactly supposed to reset the CMOS battery in a graphics card failure.

Try the graphics card in another computer and see whether it works. If it does, then its a motherboard issue on your part. As for openBVE, update to .NET 4, which linked above and try again. For a lot of modern computers, the CMOS battery just remembers the time and date, while BIOS settings are in a dedicated flash memory somewhere else on the board. Try to set the correct time and date in the BIOS, because some programs don't like conflicting dates (not exactly sure why, but GTAIV and WGA are pretty good examples of programs that don't like conflicting dates)

Well I searched it up on google "My Computer doesn't boot when I put my GPU,but starts when I use my on-board graphics." and that was the real problem. Every time I remove the card and plug the VGA on the on-board graphics,It works.

When the graphics card is in there, is there a beep from the motherboard? Or is the motherboard not POSTing?

I think I heard the beep before,yes.
