At new game startup, message box appears "Unhandled exception c0000005".  Mrpheus then crashes, returning me to the desktop.  

Google search discloses that problem has come up with other games and seems common with XP startup issues.  Problem could be related to drivers, but there's not enough info to tell.  

I wonder if anybody knows anything about this in general or specifically regarding Morpheus, in terms of being able to offer any suggestions for how to get rid of this game-stopper.

I don't know about this specific problem - I have played the game fairly recently on my XP system without problems, but following Inferno's advice (as usual)

Her set-up page is the following:

You'll need Quicktime 3 installed and run the game in 256 colours, otherwise it should be okay. Good luck.

Dombrewer, thanks for the tips.  I tried installing Morpheus once again, faithfully following Inferno's instructions, and am sorry to say that I still received that "unhandled exception" message.

I recently completely reinstalled XP from scratch to be sure my system was as clean as it could be, but there must remain a conflict of sorts that I can't find.

Thanks again.

Deleted UserIf you have a newer version of QuickTime already installed, you may want to try completely uninstalling it before installing the version that comes with the game.  This means hunting down particular files and .dll's even after running the uninstall utility.  For complete instructions on fully uninstalling QT, read this.
