Do you have a 32-bit version or a 64-bit version?
I have a suspicion that RMXP does not run on 64-bit. I am unfortunately unable to test this.

DAMM YOU VISTA!

when i run RPG maker XP, it will give me this error: "Critical Error C0000005 at address 00000000"

VISTA IS A PILE OF JUNK!

The most important tip: UNINSTALL VISTA YOU MORON.

I FIXED IT!!!!!!!!

Here's the problem:
For whatever stupid reason, rgss100j.dll doesn't work properly in Vista, so what you have to do is open the "game.ini" config settings in your game's folder using notepad, and where it says

Library=RGSS100J.DLL, change it to Library=RGSS102E.DLL

The game and player WORK FINE!

oh, and obviously that must mean you have to have rgss102e.dll

Edit: Turns out ya still need the Official Version to use the music player, not sure why though...

I had this same problem on Vista Ultimate 64bit ,how did u fixed this? Please e-mail me at patmi@mj-soft.net
THANX

I just got a laptop with Vista Home Basic (yeah, it was bundled....) - installed RMXP and got the "Cannot connect to ntitles server" error.  Right-click RMXP.exe and set to run as administrator and it seems to have fixed the problem - for now.  Haven't had any of the other error messages yet.

Thanks for posting this list of fixes!

Well umm....RPG Maker XP works for me in VIsta...I didn't really do anything either.

well yeah, your using the official verison which works fine, it's the Enterbrain version which has all the damn problems. Kind of why I decided it was finally time to buy the damn thing.

Enterbrain IS the legal version.

whatever, im slow. The free version sucks, end of story.

you are a TOTAL LEGEND!
Vista Home Basic, 32 bit.  RMXP has been running fine (official version) when run as administrator but I needed to do the above to get rid of my "RGSS Player Stopped Working" message.  SO glad you posted this solution!

Legend? lol

lol - leave me alone!

Good thing I don't have Vista 

Actually, neither do I. It would be a big help if someone who did, would test some things for me...

if you still need someone to test some things with Vista i could, i have the same problems as every1 else, but i still have all my files on my other comp which is XP so my stuff is safe and i can mess around with RMXP in Vista.

what exactly does this fix? i tried it and i still get the same problem.




edit: BTW My RPG Maker XP runs and i can do stuff with it, but as soon as i playtest i get "RGSS player has stopped working" and it doesn't playtest, but i figured out that it does this when you save, i literally opened up a project, playtested it, it worked, then saved and playtested again and it gave me the error message again, just thought it would help in looking fo a solution....

the reason is that for some EXTREMELY ANNOYING reason projects saved using the free version automatically re-assingn the library to rgss100j.dll so you have to keep editing that stupid .ini file EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU SAVE AND CLOSE THE PROGRAM!!!

rly sry bout that yall i havent found a solution to get it to NOT re-assign it but ill post bak if i do

Oh, now it works! yay, thanks so much! But it is kinda anoying to have to change it every time.    hope you can fix that soon  too

After 4 hours of installing, uninstalling every version of RMXP, I have given up and will try VX when it comes out.

You shouldn't have a problem with RMXP on vista anymore if you do the above.

OK this will make all of this easier!
When you change the config file from 100j to 102e also make the file read only:
1. right click on the config file.
2. go to properties.
3. at the bottom check the read-only box.
4. click Apply.
When you open the project it removes the read-only but, if you put it back to read-only AFTER you open it, it has no problems with saving, so you can mess around all you want till you close it, then when you open the project again, just set the read-only status before you do any saving and you will be fine, IF this doesn't work for you let me know, but that's a big if.....
