cant open avs - external component makes exception

[loki03]

hy! i try to use avisynth on a 256mb ram laptop. i have avisynth 2.5, dgindex 1.45 and the yuvcodecs-1.2. when i make a d2v with "save project" i cant open the avs (dgdecode.dll, mpeg2source, virtual mem is sys controlled(xp)) following happens:
zoomplayer: unable to play. this may be due to a corrupt file...
mplayer2: not enough memory
megui: an external component has created an exeption

i can open a d2v i made with "save project and demux video", but this takes ages because the laptop is not very fast.
can someone give me a hint?

funny thing is, that the "avisynth script generator" can open the d2v and shows the video! so i guess i have a problem with a codec?

Try Virtualdub. It'll catch any AVS exceptions, which may lead to a more helpful error message.

virtualdub Error
Avisynth open failure:
Avisynth: script open failed!

its strange, yesterday it could play back the examples in the avisynth dir, now i get the same error. its a strange laptop (sis mainboard...). i installed all xp updates, maybe it broke something?

virtualdubmod doesnt start- microsoft visual c++ runtime library runtime error. this application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way.

Empty your plugin dir and try a simple Version() script.
