I installed the latest version of Fraps, but when I try to record a video, I get an Access Violation error (at 6D9EE692) for d3d8.dll. I press enter, and everything is normal again, except the benchmark number disappears. I check my Fraps folder and I did get a video, but it is 6kb and when I try to open it with Windows Media Player, I get the following error:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file."
I have no idea what codec it needs.
I tried redownloading d3d8.dll. Apparently I never even had that file (or so Google Desktop Search tells me). I put it in my windows/system folder. It didn't do anything.
I've tried reinstalling Fraps. Nothing happened.
I've had this problem for a while, and I have reformatted my computer since. It has not helped.
I have tried installing Fraps 1.9D. I don't get the error, but my benchmark number turns red for an instant, and returns to yellow. I get a video, but its 2kb, and I have the same error when I try to open it.
I have used Fraps on other games and have had no problems with them.
Can anyone help me out here?
EDIT: Can someone give me a step-by-step instruction on how and where they got and used Fraps? I REALLY need help with this. I would really appreciate any help you could give, and I'll give you credit in my video if it works.
