Crash on installing

[muchio]

Hi,

I'm using paint.net 3.08. A few days ago I've installed latest .net 2.0 patches and since then paint.net is dead. I've uninstalled it and tried to install a fresh copy but without luck. Here's my pdncrash.log:

Any advice here?

you have 1013MB of RAM ?. 1GB of RAM is 1024MB. Do you use on board video because on board video will use your ram but if not then you got corrupt memory. Also your log file seems to say that as well.

System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'PaintDotNet.DocumentWorkspace' threw an exception. ---> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory.

Best to run a memory testing program to make sure.
