PLEASE, READ THIS. I think it's relevant.

Well, I have not good news.
In fact, a simple script that keeps running background,
after about one hour, starts to crash Win98.
Today, I was listening to a lot of music in Winamp,
when Winamp crashes again . Then, I remembered that
Winamp ALWAYS crashes (itself) after some time, and today,
it happened about two hours after started.
I also remembered that Winamp ALWAYS crashes after some time
since version 3 (I posted it in this forum a long time ago, when I was using a 586, 166MHz).

I'm not a developer and want only to help us.
For me, looks like there is something not right in the
structure of Winamp/Nsis.

Winamp v2.x and mediaPlayer (audio-video) don't show problems
Winamp also frequently stops for a long time or crashes itself when STARTS to read cda. So serious that I don't use Winamp for cda.
BTW, the only app that crashes W98 that I can remember is 1By1 ( a micro-player free), but can be in few minutes or many hours. No problems with other timers or shedulers.

After all these days, I noticed that the first problem that shows that Win will crash is when a file is not opened by its .exe in Explorer. Then, fastly close my nsis app and Win becomes normal. (my timer or my clipboard monitor).

Thank you for all.


Good info, but I think you meant to post it on the WinAmp forums, not the NSIS forum...
