Summary: Out of memory error in Cyber Chess Product: Wine Version: 1.2-rc6 Platform: x86 URL: http://www.zdnetasia.com/downloads/windows/cyber-chess _sw-39349263.htm OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: markk@clara.co.uk
This bug applies to the game Cyber Chess by Cosmi, both the retail CD-ROM and downloadable trial.
The trial can be downloaded from https://www.cosmi.com/login.aspx?Next=Download&Matnr=CDRS831 (registration required) or e.g. http://www.zdnetasia.com/downloads/windows/cyber-chess_sw-39349263.htm (no registration required). It's about 80MB.
Just before starting a game (after the FMV sequence), there is a dialog box which says "Sorry, not enough memory to proceed. Quitting".
The Cosmi web site http://www.cosmi.com/cgi-script/csFAQ/csFAQ.pl?command=viewFAQ&database=... points to an article on the Microsoft web site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894472 "Third-party programs that require lots of memory do not run in Windows XP Service Pack 2".
The MS article says: "This hotfix includes a new Xpsp2res.dll file that dynamically finds a memory location to reduce virtual memory fragmentation. Before you apply this hotfix, we recommend that you ask the vendor of your programs to verify that this solution is acceptable. This hotfix enables the new Xpsp2res.dll file to find a memory location dynamically and reduce virtual memory fragmentation."
With Windows Vista, the out of memory dialog also appears. However, the game runs okay under Vista in XP SP2 compatibility mode. The out of memory dialog appears when running the game under Wine in XP mode.

--- Comment #1 from markk@clara.co.uk 2010-07-19 05:45:48 --- If testing the trial version, you'll need to do "winetricks ie6" before running it in order for the trial front-end to work.

--- Comment #3 from Mark K markk@clara.co.uk 2011-12-11 07:10:49 CST --- This bug is still present with Wine 1.3.34.
The zdnetasia download URL is no longer valid. Instead you can download the demo from http://downloads.zdnet.com/abstract.aspx?docid=782313 which requires you register first, or http://download.cnet.com/Cyber-Chess/3000-2119_4-10709206.html which is wrapped in a download manager unless you register for a direct download.

--- Comment #5 from Ken Sharp imwellcushtymelike@gmail.com --- Is this still an issue in Wine 1.7.45 or later?
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23700
--- Comment #6 from Mark K markk@clara.co.uk --- The problem still happens with Wine 1.7.44. [Tested with the retail CD-ROM version since "winetricks ie6" no longer works here.]
To make downloading the trial version easier I have uploaded it to https://www.mediafire.com/?20nhoho8a181ql9 and http://www.4shared.com/file/S0-4R-7vce/CyberChessTNB.html

--- Comment #7 from winetest@luukku.com --- It seems to me that the program has regressed. It crashes when trying to launch.
wine 2.0.rc3. wine-staging 2.0.2rc2

--- Comment #8 from Mark K markk@clara.co.uk --- If anyone wants to test using the full non-trialware version (no need for winetricks ie6), Googling "cyber chess" iso gave this: http://www.theisozone.com/downloads/pc/windows-games/cyber-chess-pc-iso/
The ISO image I downloaded from there is identical to my retail CD-ROM, except my disc's ISO image is 137,111,552 bytes (it's padded with zeros).
