Illegal Operation in Windows

I recently installed the J2SDK onto my machine at home (which runs windows ME). On occasion, I'll get an Illegal operation whenever I perform a javac or a java in my DOS window, (Fault Location: 0500:0681). Once this happens, I can't run either of those until I restart my computer.
I've installed the J2SDK on a few machines before (linux and Windows 98) and have never had such problems. Any quick fixes?
Thanks in advance.

Stick to Windows 98 - it sounds like you have a copy. The OEM guys in the city I live in almost universally suggest 98 over ME, and in most cases spend quite a bit of effort talking customers into spending less money in their store, because they know that ME will cause more issues than the sale is worth.

  • CTplay2 has performed an illegal operation when trying to rip a track from a cd into Playcent

    I have had Creative Playcenter for about three years with no problems until a week ago.
    I was surfing the Internet and while on one webpage, I had the Playcenter
    playing a playlist, the computer locked up after I tried to close a pop up ad. After rebooting, the Playcenter lost the list of tracks, it had the albums and artist lists, yet the track list showed "0". I uninstalled and reinstalled the software and reloaded
    the tracks from the Nomad and now I am unable to rip tracks from cd's. I am able to convert existing wave files ripped from other cd ripping software yet cannot use the Creative Playcenter rip and convert feature without encountering this illegal operation message then it shuts it down. It's able to create the file where the mp3's are stored, but unable to tranfer the MP3 to it. No other changes have been made to my computer either. I just hope that I do not have to do a dreaded format and reinstall to fix this.
    I really like this Creative product since I have had it have not had any problems with either the Nomad Jukebox or the software until the Internet surfing incident about a week ago

    This error occurs when I try to rip a cd track into the Play Center. I have tried to repair from the disc with the anti virus disabled and while reinstalling another error message appears "scandir has caused an illegal operation" during the reinstall.

    The original version that came with the installation disc "3.02.58". I have not updated it since I installed the first time because I had not had any problems with it until recently.
    Also I forgot to mention in my first post, I have added some extra system sounds to my computer and that may have contributed to the problem of it freezing up at the time I clicked on the pop up ad in order to close it out. Some of the sounds activate during "restore up" and "minimize", the sounds or other Windows sounds do not activate while Playcenter is in use.

  • 9.0.124.0 Update - Firefox Illegal Operation

    My system, Windows XP SP3, IE 7, Firefox 2.0 , Flash Player
    9.0.124.0. After a recent Windows update which included SP3 I had
    to install Flash Player latest version for IE7. The normal Flash
    download and install wouldn't work. It caused IE7 to crash
    repeatedly. Followed Adobe's online recommendations - uninstall and
    redownload didn't work. Downgrading IE7 security to medium didn't
    work. The Adobe Flash uninstall tool didn't work. Their final
    online solution (which required several steps) regarding Windows
    registry permissions was successful for IE7in my case: from the
    Adobe technote -
    "Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that
    prevent the Flash Player installation. For instruction on how to
    run SubInACL to fix these permission issues please refer to
    "Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that
    prevent the Flash Player installation" (TechNote fb1634cb)."
    Of course I was using Firefox 2.0 to do this online
    troubleshooting (version info: latest version - Mozilla/5.0
    (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404
    Firefox/2.0.0.14). Flash had always worked fine in Firefox
    previously for me. Firefox is my preferred (default) browser. I use
    IE7 only for a very few Microsoft and other sites that
    display/download correctly only via IE7 (including Microsft
    Update). Now following the suggested IE7 fix, my Firefox
    Flashplayer plugin is broken.
    When I first opened Firefox after the IE7 fix, any pages with
    Flash reported the missing plugin message. Using the Firefox
    "Install missing plugins" feature tried to install the Flash Player
    Plugin but failed. Visiting the Adobe website and following the
    download and install Flash Player instructions with Firefox seemed
    to work. The Flash plugin reported successful install. Now visiting
    almost any Flash enabled website in Firefox results in this Firefox
    error message -
    "Shockwave flash: The plugin has performed an illegal operation.
    You are strongly advised to restart Firefox"
    Now uninstalling and re-installing Flashplayer are not
    working for Firefox. Searching the forums here doesn't give any
    recent instance of this error message for version 9.0.124.0 (that I
    can find anyway...) that seem pertinent. I need to get Adobe Flash
    Player working with Firefox 2.0 again. Any help appreciated.
    - note - don't use any 3rd party pop-up blockers etc. Do use
    anti-virus AVG 8.0 Free (disabled for installs/uninstalls) with
    their LinkScanner tool disabled. thx - Andy

  • Search Server Error - Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion

    Hello,
    I have a 5 server farm (DC, 2 WFEs, 1 SQL,1 CA w/ search) and am experiencing an issue when returning search results.  This issue just started occurring recently, and basically the search page throws a correlation id whenever used.  The error returned
    is:
    SearchServiceApplication::Execute--Exception: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800703FA): Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703FA)

    I even attempted to create an out of the box enterprise search site with OOB masterpages and I still am receiving this error.  
    I have also tried the  ‘Do not forcefully unload the registry at user logoff’ registry edit, but it did not work.
    Has anyone ran into this issue and has another solution other than the ‘Do not forcefully unload the registry at user logoff’ registry edit?
    Thanks!

  • Illegal operation after open MS Word

    I use activeX to open a MS Word with my document. After Word opened my document, I manually review my document and manually click File-Print. I get illegal operation issue.
    1. I already close the ActiveX refence to MS Word in my labview program.
    2. but if I don't close the ActiveX reference, will this cause some issues later, what if I manually review, print and manually exit/close MS Word, will my ActiveX reference in LabView close by itself?

    Hi,
    Could you post your VI that you use? I created a simple VI that just opens a Word document. I couldn't reproduce the error. Do you get the Print window to open at all? Does LabVIEW report any errors in the error handlers?
    The attached VI was created with LabVIEW 6i.

    whenever i open gmail it appears which says-"java script application,Error: Illegal operation on WrappedNative prototype ",how this will resolve,anyhow ?

    This is usually caused by an extension that is using a name for a variable or function that has become a reserved variable name and thus can't be used anymore.<br />
    You will have to check if there is an update is available for your Firefox 29.0a2 Aurora version.
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

  • AT-GPIB card illegal operation

    I have recently installed the software for the AT-GPIB card onto my PC, running WIN98. When I click on the icon for GPIB.com I receive an error message of an illegal operation. The program tried to execute an invalid instruction. Fault location 2B12:0102. Interrupts in service: none.
    Many of the icons work such as ibdiag and ibtest, but many that apparently work off of GPIB.com give the same message. What do I need to do to get my card to work properly so I no longer recieve this message and can use my card properly. Thanks

    Chris,
    Are you using a DOS program, or a Windows 3.x program? This changes the method that you need to use to install the driver and which driver you need.
    If you are using a DOS-only application that is not Windows 3.x aware, note the following paragraph on the link I gave you previously:
    "Information about DOS GPIB applications
    For DOS GPIB applications, you need to download the latest DOS software for your GPIB hardware. Below is the list of the GPIB Software for DOS that is in PKZIP format. Then to help you configure your GPIB hardware and software, please refer to the Using Your NI-488.2 Software for DOS or Windows 3 with Windows 98/95 Manual. This manual also explains how to create a special DOS Shell from which you can run DOS type
    GPIB applications."
    It sounds as though you have the Win16 driver working properly right now (since the Win16 interactive control can presumably do an "ibfind gpib0" and not get EDVR), so I assume you have a DOS program. If this is the case, you need to focus on the directions for "DOS Only" in the manual mentioned above. Once you get IBIC working properly inside of DOS, you should be all set.

    Windows 98. Used to drive me crazy with those "invalid operation" messages. It's not a Java problem, it's just something that happens to Win 98 after you've loaded enough complex pieces of software onto it. Senility or something like that. If you have the stomach for it, reinstall Windows and the software you need; better still, install Windows 2000 (looks like you have enough hardware to run it).

  • Illegal operation occures running a 'Write Digital Line' vi in Test Executive

    I'm switching a single line of a PCI DIO 96.

    Hi,
    I have a PC set up with Labview 5 and Test executive 5.1. I'm trying to create a vi that can be run in test exec that will allow me to control any of the DIO lines of a PCI DIO 96. When I put the vi in a sequence and try to exit the edit screen the Test exec stops and an 'illegal operation' window appears.
    I have also tryed this with the DIO example that comes with labview 'Write 1 point to digital line.vi' and the same occurs.
    I hope this explains it better.
    Many thanks

  • Opening an operating system window from Forms

    An old feature from SQL*Forms was that you could open an Operating System Window by pressing a function key (or combination of keys)
    I think this is still available in Oracle Forms 10g, but I can't remember which function key to press.
    Can anyone help? I know that the function keys can vary across systems, so that I'm looking for is the default key (or keystrokes). I don't think it matters which versions of software are being used, but in case it does, the setup is:
    Oracle Forms: 10gR2
    Client PC: Windows XP
    Client Browser: Internet Expolorer 6
    Application Server: 10GR2 on Windows Server 2003
    Database Server: 10gR2 on Windows Server 2003
    The database has the ORAFORMS$OSC role granted to PUBLIC, and the "<OSC>" flag is showing in the Forms Console.
    Control-K gives a list of the function keys, but doesn't list anything for opening a DOS window:
    As far as I know, frmweb.res has not been altered, but it doesn't list an option for opening an OS window anyway.
    This is not about the HOST command.
    Thanks, Martin

    Hi michaeltowse,
    This is indeed something more complicated. Let me give you
    some details about the project:
    This project is to be initially created in Adobe Captivate.
    It consists of the main menu that is to be created in Flash (menu
    1); sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate (menu 2); and
    menus of sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate as well
    (menu 3). Now, the part where I need help on is the part that goes
    from sub-menus (menu 2) to menus of sub-menus (menu 3). When any
    option is to be selected from the sub-menu (menu 2), a new window
    is suppose to pop-up (menu 3) that is suppose to be in Flash. This
    new window is suppose to be a new Flash window and is not suppose
    to be opened in a browser, but it's suppose to be opened in another
    Flash window (SWF window). This whole entire project is to be
    executed via an embedded Flash executable. Thus all the .SWF files
    that were created in either Captivate or Flash are to be tied
    together via a Flash executable. I was told in Captivate's Forum
    that this may be done via ActionScript in Flash and I'm wondering
    whether that is that case. Please tell me if my project makes
    sense.
    Thank you.

  • Operating System(Windows 7) got corrupted ..!

    Hi all,
    Can someone please help me with my laptop issue ???
    My Laptop Details :
    Product name         :  HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
    Operating System :  Windows 7 Home Premium
    RAM                             :  6GB
    Processor                  :  Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU [email protected](2400MHz)
    Purchase                   :  Decemeber, 2010.
    My Laptop problem :
    My HP-laptop got infected with "virus" ( it says like found 38 virus).
    And because of this virus attack , I was NOT able to open any application , for example say if i try to open "notepad" - then throws a message like " unable to open notepad application, though infected with virus".
    So with this , i can confirm that my laptop was NOT allowing me to open anything because infected with virus.
    Now i have 2 options to go further :
    1) Remove virus , using antivirus removal software ( This i don't have , so NOT attempting to use)
    2) Recover thru recovery option.
    When i purchased this laptop , the laptop contains recovery partition within the laptop , so it's a built-in option.
    Though i was NOT interested to keep that recovery partition in my laptop, I just burned recovery manager into 7 DVDs, and then deleted the partition.
    With this my laptop contains drives like :
     C: drive --> this contains OS related stuff
    D: drive --> this contains my general stuff like songs , movies , etc
    System drive --> 199MB ( not sure what thid contains )
    Now coming to original problem/issue -
    I have planned to use recovery DVDs , to recover to factory state.
    Started with 1st DVD , it went upto 18% and then asked me to insert 2nd DVD.. and this went upto 30%.. now again asked me to insert 3rd DVD.
    With 3rd DVD.. it went upto 40% , and then stopped responding. Nearly I've waited for about 3 hrs.. but NO use.. it's still hanged at 40% only.
    So with 3rd DVD , it got hanged or stopped.
    My doubt - not sure whether my 3rd DVD got corrupted or not , but i don't think so.. because 3rd DVD worked for atleast 10%..
    Finally , I was struck here...
    Not sure what's my next step
    Please help me what I have to do now, like  what steps to take... etc
    How to recover?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Lets start with your providing the complete product name or product number. 
    HP has produced and brought to market perhaps more than 10,000 models of notebooks and desktop PCs over the years. It is difficult to help you if we don't know which one you own and which operating system is installed.
    Method #1: If the notebook will boot into Windows you can retrieve your Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key. You can also read the Service Tag (if present) attached to the bottom of your notebook\netbook.
    Method #2:
    Remove the battery and look in the compartment where the battery was installed. You should see a printed part number and a product name. Please post one or both of them (with all alphanumeric characters here). If you live outside of North America, it helps us if you post the country of purchase.
    Were you using an antivirus product (free or paid) when this issue happened?
    What was the brand and product name of the Antivirus product?
    Best regards,
    erico
