This is the error I get when my CS server crashes.

Does anyone know what it is or how to fix it? I would like to know what exactly this is and why it happens.

Thanks

Do you have EAX enabled?

If so, disable it.

It just seems as though there are a lot of eax entries in there my friend.
Let me know how you go on.

that is kinda what i fugiured, buuuuut. The other entries what are they?

I will look to see it it is enabled. It is a dedicated server, so the sound isnt used.

Thanks.

the other entries are procedure calls pointing to memory locations or something of that sort. The numbers are in hexadecimal that is why they have letters and numbers. Judging by the dump your getting it is due to the soundcard trying to write to a memory location that is already in use, or trying to use EAX when its not able to thus crashing.

This doesn't necessarily have anything to do with sound guys - what you are looking at is a bit of x86 machine code (assembly). "eax" is a 32-bit register on the processor, and has NOTHING to do with the sound card. Registers are where the processor stores bits of data right before performing an operation on them.

There's really not a whole lot you can do to troubleshoot this, without having access to the source, and even then it would be hard since I'm pretty sure CS wasn't written in assembly. But your best bet for resolving this would be to send it along to the developers...

An answer that makes sense. Thanks bro.

And even if it was done during assembly, are you l33t enough to change the code yerself? Probably not...I know I'll never be l33t on the software side.
