Hello all. I've basically got the same issue. When trying to run Heroes of Might and Magic 5, I get: Code: err:virtual:map_image failed to set 60000020 protection on section .text, noexec filesystem? err:virtual:map_image failed to set 60000020 protection on section .text, noexec filesystem? err:virtual:map_image failed to set 60000020 protection on section .text, noexec filesystem? err:virtual:map_image failed to set 60000020 protection on section .text, noexec filesystem? err:module:attach_process_dlls "MSVCR71.dll" failed to initialize, aborting err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\media\\dane\\programy\\gry\\HoMM5\\bin\\H5_Game.exe" failed, status c0000005 Now the thing is that the filesystem has NOT been set to noexec, as the part coresponding to my NTFS partitions looks like this: Code: /dev/sda3 /media/os ntfs-3g defaults,user,locale=pl_PL 0 2 /dev/sda5 /media/dane ntfs-3g defaults,user,locale=pl_PL 0 2 And man mount says that Code: defaults Use default options: rw, suid, dev, exec, auto, nouser, and async. Copying the file MSVCR71.dll from my Windows installation doesn't help. Any ideas what's going on and how to solve the problem? :)
