The location of the error is rarely (if ever) useful. There usually is an
error message before it that might be slightly useful in that it tells you
what exe and sometimes what module the error occurred in.

This error information is also logged in the OS error log:
control panel > administrative tools > computer management > event viewer >
application

Especially with a stand-alone dedicated servers, these sorts of errors can
happen with:

1. bad plugins ... remove all plugins including metamod if used and see if
the error still happens
2. bad custom maps ... run only stock maps and see if the error still
happens
3. bad or corrupt server install .. run hldsupdatetool with -verify_all

If you do memory testing I highly recommend memtest86
(http://www.memtest86.com) and run at least 3 full passes.

One very important rule-of-thumb with system memory is never to mix memory
sizes, IE: it's better to run 2ea 512 then 1ea 512 + 2ea 256 and always
match memory speeds on pairs.

Thermal problems can also cause problems like this, most typically bad fans
or a loose cpu or inadequate northbridge heatsink or old thermal grease on
either.

A very good program to check for overheating is to run prime95
(http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm) and run the torture test (read the
documentation).

Subject: [hlds] what does this memory error mean?


"The instruction at 0x00932723 referenced memory at 0x1091009c. The memory
could not be read. "

Only happens when I run servers for Half Life Source mods. Only happens
when
I run the dedicated standalone server. Doesn't happen for any other server
I
run or when I run Half Life listen server. I ran two ram checks/tests and
there no problems with the ram. Already tried google. Anyone else ever
seen
this error and solved the problem? Any advice appreciated. Thanks!
