Howdy -
Just finished building a Windows XP SP3 VM using MS Virtual Workstation 2007 (Windows XP happens to be the .VHD I have on hand). Just a base install of XP with SP3, IE8, and all current security patches.
When I run Ultima Online it has to start by going through the full patch download process as this is a vanilla instance. When running the patcher I can't make it any further than part way through anim.mul before it crashes with:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
---------------------------
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Games\UO\Client\UO.bin
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
I suspect that I could eventually figure out WTF is going on but if anyone here has ever run into that it would sure be helpful to know what the resolution was.
Oh, and when I say "vanilla" I mean no virus scanning, no malware scanning, no firewall, no nothing running at all! I'm just trying to build an image.
Thanks!
