Floating point error

Post by DRam »

After upgrading to the latest drivers for my sound card (Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround Pro) I get the following error message: Invalid floating point operation. 0x00452C2B. Module: GoldWave.exe

My first thought is that there something in Creative's Sound Blaster drivers at fault, and have a query in to them. But on the off chance that another GoldWave user has run into the same problem and has a solution . . .

Try this:

- make sure GoldWave is closed

- from the Windows "Start" button choose All Programs > GoldWave > GoldWave Setup

- in the GoldWave Setup Options dialog, put a check-mark in the box for "Ignore floating point errors"

- click the "OK" button and GoldWave should open

See if that helps.
