Place the following in a .reg file: -------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows] "ErrorMode"=dword:00000002 ------------- Save and run the .reg file, this will add it into the registry. This prevents error messages from appearing. You may also want to disable Windows Error Reporting under system properties. I use this and never get any error popups on any servers, so they are restarted without problem. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dustin Wyatt Sent: 24 November 2008 19:40 To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Windows 2008 Hmm, we may be talking about different dialogs, but I often get a crash dialog even with -nocrashdiag on my servers running Win2k3.
