Error message while playing Hitman 2
Error message while playing Hitman 2
The exception breakpoint... A breakpoint has been reached. (0x0000003) Occurred in the application at location 0x00000001410C413D.
I'm just curious, does this particular error message occur due to my GPU running out of video memory and being unable to allocate the data? The correlation is very strong since the issue disappeared when I cut the memory safeguards back on. I’ll play the game again right now just to make sure my mind isn’t playing tricks on me or something.
The Override Memory Safeguards Feature:
From where did you download the game? Also, are all available patches/updates (if any) applied?
Here’s a rewritten version of the text, aiming for clarity and conciseness:
“The system experienced frequent crashes due to a lack of memory safeguards. Attempts to fix the issue were unsuccessful. Removing these safeguards resolved the problem, although it raises concerns about stability. The original configuration was attempting to use unsupported features, leading to instability.”
Dubiously acquired games often have such errors (pirated). In your case, that doesn't apply (a good thing).
The next time is dies, look in Event Viewer for additional clues. Are your video drivers current? Same for Windows, in general.
My operating system and drivers are up to date. It does me give the option to install a feature for windows 10 version 1909 though. I have no idea what that feature is.
1909 is just the latest major release version. I installed on all of my systems, easily. No issues whatsoever afterward.
It is recommended for use. After installing, update your video drivers.
Well, I'll consider it if I start having issues again. I just wanted to know what the error message was about. It seemed to be related to video memory.

Faulting package full name:
The event logs indicate a problem with the “hitman2.exe” application, specifically version 2.72.0.0. The first log entry details an "Application Error" (code 0xc0000005) related to file access, possibly due to corrupted or missing files within the game installation directory. The second log entry presents a similar error (code 0x80000003) with a different fault offset and process ID, further suggesting an issue during application startup or execution. The timestamps and paths confirm the location of the faulty executable. While “Application Error” is noted in both entries, it’s not definitive; the specific exception codes (0xc0000005 and 0x80000003) point to different underlying problems – one related to file access and the other possibly a memory or resource issue. The “unknown” module names suggest either an uninitialized dependency or a problem with the game’s internal referencing. A chkdsk scan at boot was likely triggered by this error, indicating a filesystem corruption issue within the game's directory. Further investigation would require debugging tools to pinpoint the exact cause of the errors, but these logs provide initial clues about potential file system problems or resource conflicts.
