computer of Hang if/when running Delphi.

Pada komputer yang menggunakan chip set S3 tertentu, seperti S3 Virge 3D/325, S3 Virge 3D/375, S3 Virge/GX, S3 Virge/DX, S3 Trio64V2- S3 Trio32 maka akan mengalami masalah bila menjalankan program Delphi, yaitu komputer menjadi hang pada saat splash screen Delphi muncul, dan proses hanya dapat direset dengan menekan tombol reset pada CPU. Masalah ini terjadi pada Delphi 3 sampai Delphi 5.

Cause :
This problem arising from interaction [among/between] Delphi, Windows, and driver of video of card; specially in handling of Imagelist.Delphi 3 and Delphi 4 at the (time) of loading of meng-construct a[n Imagelist the big enough fairishness ( 180+ image) to accomodate icon / glyph [at] palette component or which used [by] Delphi alone internally. Some videoes driver of card ( especially [at] mentioned S3 chip driver above) having bug in handling of Imagelist APIINI. When imagelist [of] di-build in memory, because the measure of big enough, driver will try ' swapping' to playing LOUVRE; just because the implementation of still less perfect, this process will cause windows become ' hang'.

Solusi :

• 1. You can try to run delphi with lino command of switch "- ns" ( i.e : Delphi32.Exe - ns) of modification or run-dialog of shortcut your Delphi. This Option will cause delphi [DO] NOT present / screen splash loading the habit presented ( logo + draw venus) to economize memory.
• 2. If/When you use Delphi 4, please Service Pack apply # 2 which can di-download of Inprise website-nya. Delphi 4.02 will try to overcome this problem with the imagelist meng-construct by manual [in] playing LOUVRE
• 3. Edit file of SYSTEM.INI your, adding " Busthrottle=1" [in] section [ DISPLAY]; Last [of] re- boot [is] your system
• 4. One of [the] way which most certainly succeed is lessened Hardware Acceleration settings for the video of your card. This matter can di-set from or Shift lah of slider to Settings " Basic" or " None
• 5. Try lah some types of driver different, because usually to each;every chip there are some versions of driver. Newest Driver can [in] download of your vendor or [in] www.s3.com.
