From context, I'm going to assume that "Stapelfehler" means "stack fault."
Which beta is this?

Wow, was that difficult? ;-)

I'm curious, Warp, what's the Finnish version of this?

beta 6 accroding to the original message.  Seems that there is still a
problem with those loops.

Only moderately.  The "Stapelverte" tipped me off.  But I really don't
know a lick of German, even though my wife was born in Hanau.

Thank all of you for trying to make some sense of the German error message :-))

Maybe...

> But I really don't know a lick of German

And I've never seen an English Windows error message ;-)) Sorry.

But I think the most important information in the German message were the values
:-))

Or is there somebody out there, using an English windows version, and having the
same problems with gaussianblob.pov ?

Greetings :-))

  I don't know because I have the english version of Windows.

  (Yes, there is a Finnish version, of course, but I simply hate it, as
many other Finnish users do; the translated OS just sounds horrible... :P
  Finland is a country where English can be considered a second language;
you usually can do anything in english and people will generally understand
you; this is often the case in company meetings etc, where there are
foreigners; English is not a problem and is a commonly used language.)

You might think so, but probably not.  I don't think I've ever gotten what
could be called useful information from anything in that message except
maybe the CS:EIP.

Ok... Here's a try:

How about this one ?

Or do you think, the brilliant error messages of windows doesn't make any sense at
all?

This is what I meant.  It makes sense, but the numbers are almost never 
useful after the fact.  Dr. Watson sometimes generates useful logs, but 
in general there's no substitute for duplicating the bug on a dev machine.
