Hi guys,
I just created a new room in a new Game i started to work on.
But now, when I try to test the game, I get this message:
Error: Unknown error (0xfffffffe)

I get that Error at all my Projects now, including the Test-Game. I even re-installed AGS twice, didn´t help. :(
What can I do???

Error 0xFFFFFFFE
Often this error comes up when you have spyware and/or viruses on the PC.

hope this is useful.

Thanks, but it didn´t find anything :(
Hope this helps:
I found out that starting the compiled game works.
It seems that its only an error with the test-function.
All I can tell you is that is a memory error.
It could have just been a hiccup, sometimes that happens.
I wouldn't worry about it unless it keeps happening.
Allright, so this happens only with debugging the game?
Hmm... what's the actual difference? .Net framework problem, like some component is not properly installed?
What about the path your project is at? Have you tried changing it to something else, like simple C:/ProjectName and see if error persists?
Just throwing random ideas here...
The porblem keeps since a few days.
And I tried with new Projects + the Testproject, too.
Ahh! I found out, that the Windows System Recoveryfunction
seems to give me the 0xfffffffffe error, too...
Seems to be a general problem with my PC. :-\
Like I said it is a memory address you are being given.
There are software memory testing software.
Software Memory adress?
Im sorry, I dont really understand.
Maybe its my bad english. :(

It's a hardware memory address problem. A certain memory area in one of your computers hardware memory sticks is showing errors at a particular memory address.
There are software programs to test the physical memory sticks.
Try Majorgeeks.com for a memory testing program
Ok, i tried one, it said 63 % free Ram, while Firefox was open.
Wheres the problem. What shall I do now??
Boy you are a computer newbie.
You want a software program that tests if your physical memory
is bad, not working.
Not a program that tells you how much ram is free you have left.
Last response
Ok ^^
Could you tell me what special program I should use?
Haha, wow. Way to drop unwarranted entitlement.
Shoben:
Get the Ultimate Boot CD (http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/).
Burn it and boot from it, there are several memory tests on there.
What they do is go through your RAM bit by bit.
Before that though you should check your harddisk(s) for errors and if there aren't any, reinstall the .NET framework.
Are you using XP, Vista, 7?
OK, ill try.
Im using Win 7, btw.
I just rediscovered that 7 has a built-in memory check; just hit F4 or F8 (try both) after the BIOS messages and you should get to the startup options. There's an option near the bottom which will run a memory diagnosis.
You mean while I see the error message?
I tried, nothing happenend. :(
No. The "BIOS messages" are the messages you see while your computer is booting up, before the Windows boot loading screen (the mostly black, slightly animated one).
Just reboot your computer, and as soon as you do, start mashing F8. Eventually you should see a menu, before Windows loads, on a black screen, and it should have an option on there to run a memory diagnostic.
Ok, I did it two times(one normal and one with advanced options).
It said no problems found. :-\
I guess something is wrong with your Windows installation. You said it yourself, Windows System Recovery won't work either.
Check your harddrive(s) for errors. Google is your friend.
Ok, ill try.
OK, I checked both my harddrives. It found some problems and solved them, but it didnt help. :(
This is getting on my nerves.
Since this error only occurs in debug mode, try reinstalling the .NET framework.
Hmm, the .Net Framework Setup just wont work. I start it and nothing happens.
Since this Bug, many things dont work as they should. Maybe I should re-install Windows.
:-\
If you can't even run an installer and you're having other Windows-related problems, then this falls outside the scope of the AGS Technical forum..but if you did get a virus of some kind, reinstalling Windows wouldn't be a bad idea.
