Visual Basic/VB >> XP Setup in an infinite loop

by UGF1bCBDdXJyYW4 » Fri, 19 Jun 2009 04:05:01 GMT

I tried to repair XP by upgrading it. Hoping to install a good copy over a
suspect one and not have it destroy all my installed programs and files. At
the 39th minute of the setup procedure I received a Fatal Error warning. The
setup stop, shows me the setup error log, then it closes out and reboots the
computer. The computer starts at the exact same place and repeats the
process. It is like an infinite loop. I have pushed every F-key and I have
shut off the computer and turned it back on to no avail. It startsd the
process over. How can I stop this? I would rather run a buggy version of XP
than to be in this infinite-loop Hell.

Visual Basic/VB >> XP Setup in an infinite loop

This newsgroup is for questions about the Visual Basic programming language.
You need to post your question in a Windows XP group, preferrably one
dedicated to setup questions, but barring that, a general XP group.

Why doesn't escape end an infinite loop in SolidWorks VBA Editor.  It works

3. Infinite loop querying remote WMI 

I am using a GetObject statement to read the WMI on a remote pc. 

If the WinMgmt service is not working properly (remotely) the VB code hangs 
with a message ("waiting for an OLE.." etc etc).

As this is not an error message the VB code is not capturing it and will 
progress no further and not allow me to quit out.

Any Ideas?

Otherwise - is there a way to return the remote RAM of a pc without using WMI?

5. Calling code in DLL that has an "infinite Loop" 

Hello,

I'm trying to tie some hardware my company builds into a PC.  I'm running
Win98 on the PC and can access my hardware C++ functions in a DLL.  Right
now I'm checking if the hardware puts up some information then when the PC
gets around to it, it reads the informaiton.  This is leading to a lag in
data because the PC can get busy with other things and not read the data
right away.

I'm wondering if there is a way to start a routine in the C++ dll that uses
a near infinite loop to "interrupt" the vb6 program when data comes in by
putting the data into something like text box.

I am not creating driver DLL yet, just a C++ program compiled into a DLL.

Can this be done?  Would someone have some advice on accomplishing this?

Thanks.

Mike

7. Weird infinite loop 

Hi!

I have a software server that uses Winsock API and connects to an
Oracle DB.

The server is located in a dual-core 3.6 Pentium D with 2 GB ram.

After some - random - time, sometimes less, sometimes more, the CPU use
of the process goes to 100% (50% of the CPU which is responding) and
the server stops responding (it appears as "not responding")

I have reviewed the code lots of times, all the loops are double -
checked, but I can't find any solution.

Any ideas?
