Been getting this error for sometime now... it doesn't crash my system or the sro client but it's incredibly irritating! it pops-out from time to time (whenever I play SRO).

Odd thing is that... there are times that it doesn't pop-out at all

Anyone getting this error msg? How do you fix it?

FYI, I have the updated drivers for my video card installed already

bump!

Would you happen to be using an ECS motherboard?

Hmm, can't remember hehehe I think so... hmmm, I'll try and download updates for my board later when I get home from work... that's probably the problem lol

@normz007, Nice skin for Windows you have... How did you get it, and can you tell me how I can use it too? It looks real cool

It's a hardware error, what you need to do is completely uninstall your video card and then reinstall with the drivers on the website, NOT THE CD. I had this error a while back for SWAT 4. Annoying as hell.

An update guys:

This error didn't crash my system... it's just simply annoying! since it'll pop-up from time to time... Well, I thought it was due to a hardware conflict... so I updated my drivers (video card, motherboard), unfortunately the error still persisted.

Odd thing bout this error message is that -> I tried another MMORPG this week (RAN Online) and there I found out that I was also getting the same error message.

So I did a google search.

I first searched for the error message and found out that there are people who were also experiencing what I was experiencing; unfortunately no solutions were posted. It then occured to me... the [u]TITLE BAR![/i] It shows msmsgs.exe Application Error! Man! I didn't see it It was an application! Did a google search and found resources about it.

Some say that it's a trojan... some say it's MS Messenger... well regardless of whether it's a legit program or not... I decided to remove it (well since I don't use MS Messenger in the first place). Besides... why the heck will it be running (sending information) whenever I play an online game?

I used the 'Run' command in Windows and entered:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove

Now I can play without the annoying error message anymore! Weee!
Warning though... if you're using MS Messenger and getting this error message... maybe you should only disable it while you play online games instead of using the command above
