Patch Dll Error

[Doc]

After some months absence, I started up CFS3 and got an error message shortly after the title screen started
that reads:

Patch Dll Error: Game terminated prematurely

PatchMemorySync: Done: TerminateProcess() failed (5)

I have tried searching the net and there are only a few references to this message with no definite solutions, several of which are from people who have given up in the end and just don't run CFS3 any more.

I am beginning to suspect Microsoft updates or security updates. Before I start trawling through these, I wondered if anyone else had ever had this problem and had found a solution.

Thanks

Never had this error. Which OS are you running?

[Doc]

It's Vista 64 bit.

[italflyer]

I'm on Win7 64bit, so don't know about vista, sorry.

Did you try to run CFS3config before running CFS3 itself?

[Doc]

Yes I have tried the config. I think I'll have to try a series delete of Microsoft updates after Christmas and see if the problem lies there.

Thanks

Doc
