KB895953 - Memory Leak in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition

Advertisement (Why?)

A memory leak in Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 causes a gradual decrease in available system memory. This loss in available memory causes degradation in system performance. When this behavior occurs, the user must restart the computer. This problem is caused by a memory leak in the tcserver.exe service.

Nexuiz is based on the Darkplaces engine. The darkplaces engine is an advanced Quake1 engine developed mainly by Forest "LordHavoc" Hale, who has been working with the Quake1 engine for many years. A few of Darkplaces main features are Quake3bsp support, realtime lighting and shadowing, new particle effects, advanced menu system, and Md3/Md2 model support. Because Nexuiz is based on the Quake1 engine, its source code along with its content is entirely GPL. Nexuiz will also use the Quake1 game code language, called QuakeC, which makes modding the gameplay of the game extremely easy. This gamecode will be included with the release, and will allow anyone to mod it, and because it is entirely serverside you can use it on your servers even if the clients do not have your mod.

TCServer.exe went from 54mb to 9 mb when I installed this update. A+.

See? It would never have happenned if people would use Intel CPUs (with the hackers options locked) instead of AMD CPUs.

This article proves that I was right all along, and that the liberals that called me a troll were wrong right from the start!

#7.1 Andareed on 06 Jul 2005 - 15:42

What does this have to do with AMD/Intel? Forgetting to free memory isn't detected by either cpu.

#7.2 Miran on 06 Jul 2005 - 16:40

Ya man what the hell are you on about?

#7.3 icecaveman on 06 Jul 2005 - 17:09

If you haven't noticed he has been trying to add this BS to every single post he can just ignore it.

He and Ann Coulter would get along great: She still thinks Canada sent troops to Vietnam.
They're both morons.

(For the record, some Canadaians did join the US military for service in Vietnam, but the Canadian government never send any of it's own soliders there)

This is great, I've been wanting a fix for this for a long time now

Yay!
