Error I downloaded a game to my PC but when I tried to play it, this came up. Error : Access violation at 0x0042DC30 (tried to read from 0x00000000), program terminated. Does anyone know what it means or what I can do to fix it so that I can play my game. Many thanks.

Unfortunately even Bill Gates cannot easily explain these errors properly without a debugger and access to your machine. You will find there is a more information button for further diagnosis. This will bring up an even more cryptic set of numbers, most would give up here and download another game. It could be something as simple as an incompatible graphics card. A memory leak. Or the programmer may not have anticipated your setup. If the game is pirated it may have been hacked which can cause instability. It may just need the latest patch. The best way to resolve this is to go to the website related to this game and read the FAQ or look at the forum there to see if someone else has the same problem
