Access violation errors on InstantCopy 7

[N3m1515]

Hi I have reported this problem before but not many people seemed to know the solution, especially Pinnacle whose support is near non existent.

I am hoping that someone may now know this error and can assist me.

I have tried re-installs, this 2nd new error has only popped up after a recent HD wipe, OS and IC7 reinstall.

Access violation at address 004775ED in module multicopy.exe Read of address 00000018.

Recently I have just started to receive this error, but only on certain films, Access violation at address 00427A93 in module multicopy.exe Read of address 00000000.

Help...:confused:

I agree,support at pinnacle sucks.

Thats why I quit using IC7 and wont bother to upgrade to IC8.
I'm still pissed off that I spent 50 bucks on it.

I honestly dont think there is a fix to this issue. the best help I can offer you is tell you to try dvdshrink. its free,the quality is as good as any other oneclick program,its fairly easy to use and theres lots of support right here.

If you feel the need to puchase a program,I personaly recomend dvd95copy. in my opinion its the most reliable program available,and whats even more important,the support is awesome.

never had this problem myself but on the web-board of instantcopy many threads can be found regarding this, myabe this one is solution to your problem

edit, oops this concerns IC8

I started having the same "Access Violation at Address 00000000 Read of Address 00000000" message too.
Happened just after I installed XPs massive Service Pack 2 (SP2). Seems they're related.

I tried the "Data Execution" fix to no avail.

A fellow named "Mister_Thing" posted in August a fix he found in the Pinnale knowledge base (ID 10419)
Turns out the access problem is caused by the Skin Component and can be fixed with a registry edit.
It's quite obscure, but the repair fixed my trouble.

Here's the fix from the knowledgebase, with some minor edits:

1. Click on "Start" and select "run..."

2. Enter "regedit" to start the registry edit application.

3. Browse to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VOB\CDRAPP\Paths”.
Put another way, work your way down the nested catagories in this order:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> VOB -> CDRAPP -> Paths

4. Rightclick on the name "skinfile" in the right window

5. Select "rename" and change it's name from "skinfile" to "skinfile1"

6. Exit "regedit" and hopefully you're good to go.

My Thanks to Pinnacle and Mister_Thing,

Data Execution Prevention Fix for Pinnacle InstantCopy

Description
No-execute and execute protection are all names for DEP. This process feature increases

security, but may cause problems with certain programs.

Directions
Several OSs have no-execute or execute protection. Microsoft has added this as well in

SP2 with data execution prevention (DEP). This precents code execution in memory

regions already marked as storage. This is a powerful tool against buffer overrun

exploits.

If a program is failing and you want to disable DEP to see if that is the cause. Here

are the steps. (Just disable DEP for the program in question... don't disable it for

your whole system.)

1. Click Start
2. Select Control Panel
3. Select System
4. Click the Advanced tab
5. In the Performance region select Settings
6. Click the Data Execute tab in the dialog box that opens
7. Select Turn on DEP for all programs and services except for those I select
8. Click Add.
9. The open dialog box will open. Browse and select your application.
10. Click Open
11. Click Apply
12. Click Ok
13. Reboot

Here are the two application files for InstantCopy whick I found need to be fixed:

C:\Program Files\Pinnacle\InstantCDDVD\InstantCopy\ICopy.exe
C:\Program Files\Pinnacle\InstantCDDVD\InstantDrive\InstantDrive.exe

After fixing the files you should reboot befor running InstantCopy.

Comment: It appears that Pinnacle will have to recompile these programs to clearly mark

the data and executable areas of memory. That would make this fix unnecessary.
