Title: Install MASM32 v9 failed
Post by: lovesha on January 16, 2008, 03:14:47 AM
I want to install MASM32 v9 on my work station. The OS is Windows Server 2003. But I got the error message as below:

---------------------------
finst.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x003826fe" referenced memory at "0x003826fe". The memory could not be "written".


Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
---------------------------
OK   Cancel   
---------------------------

I am not sure what the problem is.

And I have tried to extract the files from install.exe by WinRAR and run makelibs.bat manually. But the same error window appeared.

Are there someone know the reason or solution?

Thanks a lot.

The problem may be with DEP, see this thread:

lovesha,

Try installing the beta of the next version, it has the DEP problem solved.

Note that the beta is not fuly supported yet but it contains all of verasion 9.0 so it should do the job.
