=> Unfortunately I am still a little perplexed. I seem to have plenty of memory => available. DO you mean abuffer overrun or physically running out of memory. => Is this real emmory or DMA memory (and is there a difference in terms of the => amount you can allocate?) Are you using gm_register_memory ? If so, old GM had a bug where gm_register_memory would fail, but return a SUCCESS code to the user. When you used that memory, the MCP would not be able to translate the virtual page to the physical page and your data would be garbage. => Also when allocating receive buffers do you only need to provide buffers for => the data that you are sending or does the GM api require some to be created => for it? So if I know I will only be sending packets of say size 50K should I => only create 64k receive buffers or do I need to create other sizes? Only your own buffers. No need to create other sizes. I would STRONGLY recommend upgrading to gm-1.4pre46.tar.gz from our ftp site ftp://[email protected]/pub/GM
